[QUOTE="woodelf, post: 1443519, member: 10201"] Actually, IIRC, he discovered Fudge, not went back to it. That is, he started out with D20 System, did a whole lot of very cool work for it, then discovered Fudge and realized that he could do what he wanted with a fraction of the effort required to alter baseline D20 System to fit (plus, I think there were comments that, despite the massive changes he'd implemented, he still wasn't completely happy with the results under D20 System), and so started working with that. And then life took him away from it. Though, IIRC, it wasn't gaming he was giving up, just maintaining a website and PDF downloads to his personal standards of quality. Don't feel too bad for losing a creator of cool D20 System stuff to Fudge--at least it was just personal preference. The guy who spent years on an unofficial Buffy: the Vampire Slayer RPG online [i](edit: before th Eden game came out)[/i] switched from Storyteller to Fudge because of the system fans, who he just couldn't stand dealing with any more. At least Ken Hood wasn't driven from D20 System by the fans of D20 System. [/QUOTE]
