[QUOTE="Faragdar, post: 135891, member: 2949"] No, I have no reason to think you're wrong. I just wondered because Skip Williams asked is that if Sage responses are posted on the internet, 1) he doesn't 'officially' know about it ;) , 2) question and answer are posted in their entirety, to preserve context, and 3) they come with a disclaimer that the rulings do not appear in Sage Advice, the FAQ or any other official source and that they are subject to change. So, according to Mr. Williams' wishes, I don't want to transfer it to my archive unless it's the actual text from the original e-mail. BTW, it was a bit of a revalation to me, but some e-mails from [email]thesage@wizards.com[/email] are not written by Skip Williams. Dave Noonan and Dave Eckelberry help out responding to questions in The Sage's inbox. I imagine it's only from Skip if it has his "signature" at the end of the message. And he warned that folks should not take responses from The Sage as canon, as sometimes the questions are answered more or less "off the cuff". Most of the time I'm happy with responses from The Sage, but that certainly explains a few of the gaffes I've seen in the last year and a half. #22) Check my archive: [URL=http://boards.wizards.com/rpg-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=135;t=009846]Archive - Sage Responses[/URL] The Sage says tiny creatures threaten the space they are in.
