[QUOTE="Wincenworks, post: 9282123, member: 7038835"] Factually incorrect. Ernie's name is listed as the dedication, which is the same dedication in Goblinz, GiantLands, etc. So he contributed about as much as Edgar Allen Poe (who you do not shame). Jeff is listed once and "editor" - there is no specific evidence in the book that he ever touched it, and people who know him say he would never have let aspects of it slip through. So both could have their names added without actually contributing, and neither is in a great position to make Justin take it out or prioritize looking into this. Justin LaNasa is listed as author on front page, and on the inside, and the thank you note, and the module - the book is full of Lower LaNasian and his previous work (Goblinz). Mick McArt is listed as editor with Jeff, and "Design & Layout" and "Published by Mick McArt"- this is almost certainly confirmed as neither Justin nor Dave has the meagre technical ability to manage it. Dave Johnson is listed first as author of the module, and his writing style/tendencies are all of over it. To pretend otherwise with this absurd "They are guilty of whatever crime I imagine, until they do what I command to prove their innocence" does literally nothing except give people like Justin opportunities to point and go "See, they're the bad guys, they're the unreasonable ones!" as well as spamming up the thread with nonsense.
