[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 8301767, member: 7006"] You people are amusing... WotC probably has the largest swathe of freelancer talent out there to get ideas and product from, all of whom they already pay good money to... and you think they're doing this to get a whole bunch of free crap from us randos out here? That's funny. Any "good stuff" any of us randos might have is already written up and put onto DMs Guild. And if we [I]haven't[/I] done that yet, and instead are submitting it to this contest... that says to me we aren't thinking our stuff is purely meant for financial gain. So what we're doing is exactly what WotC is doing... having a bit of fun within the D&D community. It'll be fun for a lot of us to come up with ideas, work those ideas out, and submit them for the heck of it... and it'll be fun for the folks at WotC to see more of the creativity across the D&D community. I mean for pete's sake... do cosplayers make their costumes and enter costume contests because they're expecting to get paid for it or they're afraid of other costume people stealing their ideas? Of course not. They do it because it's FUN. And it should be exactly the same thing for anyone who enters this contest. [/QUOTE]
