I hope that the online content improves greatly by Friday.  I really hope that the sales results encourages Hasbro to keep the brand and continue to put its considerable resources behind its marketing and developing.I also hope that the Pathfinder RPG from Paizo Publishing garners the kind of success that Paizo, as a consumer friendly, communicative, and talented company deserves.  I plan on supporting them as they have chosen to support a version of D&D that my gaming group and I enjoy much more than 4th edition.So, here's to you, 4th Edition.  May your sales be HUGE, may you attract new customers, and may both old and new customers gain years and years of enjoyment out of playing you.  Congratulations on the sell-through of the first run, WOTC.</blockquote>
