[QUOTE="Deset Gled, post: 9066925, member: 7808"] I can't tell if those are giants or windmills in the distance, but I'm going in. For over a year now, Mick McArt has been proudly showing off his sales of Dungeon Crawl by NuTSR. He happily took pics of folks with the game last year, and continued the trend during his tour of fairs and farmer's markets this summer. Between McArt's and NuTSR's social media accounts, there are dozens of posts about McArt selling copies. This is a picture of the booth design Mick was showing off this year, along with a pic of him selling a game. It's just one example. The DHSM even re-shared this on FB. The arrow shows where you can see more copies of Dungeon Crawl when you zoom in. [ATTACH type="full" width="664px" alt="McArtwindmill3 - Copy.JPG"]290007[/ATTACH] But about a month ago, right after NuTSR declared bankruptcy, McArt abruptly stopped sharing pics of fans holding Dungeon Crawl. And now, the new pics he shares of his booth look like this. [ATTACH type="full" width="652px" alt="McArtwindmill2.JPG"]290008[/ATTACH] Its exactly the same booth design as in the last pic. But the big banner is covering up the board games. Curious. And even though he's been to 3~4 shows since the bankruptcy, McArt hasn't shown a single picture where Dungeon Crawl is visible. Well, here's a pic of a different booth layout that he just posted today: [ATTACH type="full" width="651px" alt="McArtwindmill1.JPG"]290009[/ATTACH] Hmm, what's that in the corner? [ATTACH type="full" alt="McArtwindmill1zoom.JPG"]290010[/ATTACH] Yup, that's definitely Dungeon Crawl. It's fuzzy and behind a display of books, but that's undeniably the game. It sure looks to me like McArt is still selling Dungeon Crawl, but doesn't want to advertise it on his social media. But why would McArt be hiding it now? He's stood behind Lanasa though the worst of the bigotry (and by all accounts, it appears McArt is on board with most of it). Is he worried that selling games from a company that just declared bankruptcy might bring unwanted attention to his business? Did Lanasa tell him that Dungeon Crawl is now by "OSR" instead of "TSR", and Lanasa doesn't want anyone to know that McArt is selling copies with the original branding? Could it be that the copies are technically owned by Lanasa, not McArt, and this is undeclared income for the bankrupt NuTSR? [/QUOTE]
