What happened to the news?

[Alnag]

So... are holidays in US or why are there almost no news about 4e now. No new blogs, no new design and development, no new playtest. Damn! Every day I am looking forward to read something and it is less and less of it.

Eh?

There's 4E news (going backwards) for Tuesday, Monday, Saturday, Friday, Thursday, Wednesday... the only day there's no 4E specific news is Sunday. I imagine WotC staffers don't work 7-day weeks.

Betcha we're not getting tidbits at the same rate - Monday was bare, Tuesday gave us one - because they're handing over the finished (less playtesting changes) PHB on Friday, and this is 'crunch week' (so to speak - it's always crunch week at Design & Dev!)

Or they're slowing down because the release dates for 4e are still pretty far out, and if they release a tidbit a day they'll run out of tidbits.

This seems likely to me -- May is still a ways off.

From Mearl's blog:

I have no time to blog, since we have to turn over the developed Player's Handbook on Friday, October 5.

So, deadline crunch.

Perhaps they already ran out of tidbits and this is all they have.

But if we get no more tidbits, we'll speculate and become angry. And then 4e will be hated until it's finally released!

Oh noes!
