[QUOTE="SSquirrel, post: 5468193, member: 5202"] (Referrring to Paizo equaling WotC in sales) I was really wondering how long it would take someone to point this out when I first read it. Oh yeah, neither company publicly discloses their sales figures do they? Hasbro COULD post the specifics of WotC, but they aren't required to. They can just list what happened w/whatever division WotC happens to be in. Maybe their book dept did really well and the book dept is where they have all RPGs and novels. Entirely possible that since the games are developed by people who work on D&D (Bill and Mike still work there right? heh) the board games sales are considered under board games, but development is under wherever D&D's R&D is located. Technically, WotC could be spread throughout several portions of Hasbro and I'm pretty sure most of us who don't work there don't know for sure. Yeah I questioned that one too. I know I drank Dew by the case anymore. Don't drink it much anymore, but I sure used to. The Dead Alewives sketch only dates back to '96, but it's pretty fantastic and very representative of the standard stereotype we have usually dealt with. I have a good time playing WoW and so does my wife. We also enjoy kicking butt and playing D&D together. I've played D&D for 23 years. Tabletop, PC, console, board games, MMO, etc. I don't see it stopping anytime soon. [/QUOTE]
