D&D 5E Who tried to end the OGL?

I dont care about "punishment". I just care about it not happening again. As far as I can tell, it wont.

I'm not sure why you put quotation marks around "punishment," since no one in this thread mentioned that which I'm aware of, and I certainly never alluded to any such thing.

What does theoretically identifying the person potentially behind it (and as others pointed out, he obviously knew) change?

Its just good to know the capacity of the folks involved in ones hobbies.

I was speaking generally, with social media looking for a person to blame.

You mentioned people for who this "matters a great deal".

My mistake; when someone quotes me before posting, I tend to think the post is directed at me specifically unless they say otherwise.

Yes, and I'm one of them, but that has nothing to do with "punishment."

Was anyone at all leaving before December?

I am not so sure we would not have heard from some leak at least, just like we hear about Cocks now

Stewart and Winninger both left well before December. Stewart moved to a video game company IIRC. Winninger is still without FT work?

No, it was my mistake. I am glad you clarified.

CEO of WotC, not Hasbro. This CEO has another CEO for a boss.

CEO of Hasbro, since Feb 2022, President and COO of WotC before that

I assume he got the idea while at WotC and stuck with it as CEO

You are free to believe that we are very well informed about all internal WotC activity, if you want.

there is quite a bit of gap between what I believe and us being well informed…

Ray Winninger had left by October 2022, so maybe in protest to the change, certainly not because of it backfiring

Nathan Stewart left in July 2023, theoretically an option

If I remember correctly, Winninger wouldnt criticize WotC but he voiced strong support for the OGL.
