[QUOTE="Willie the Duck, post: 9677732, member: 6799660"] I would have to agree. I would have this in the job description of this kind of role for every stage of the game's life cycle. I think I'm at the point where my position is that D&D'24 could well be a disappointment, and/or 6e could very well be on the way, but the evidence (or at the very least the weight of it) people (here and online in general) have been putting forward seems unconvincing at this point. At some point they will announce, and the people who were calling it right before will say 'called it!,' and more power to them if that gives them a good feel*. I won't give it much heed unless it was specific to the time (rather than every moment until it eventually happens), and the reasoning put forth is compelling. [SIZE=3]*I don't honestly believe people are going around patting themselves on the back for such things. I mean more that minor visceral thing like some places where you call 'First!' for being the first commentator or other minor victories.[/SIZE] Putting that through a cost of living calculator, that salary in Seattle equals ~95-127k in the twin cities where I am. That's not-nothing, but hardly exceptional for being head of something and in such a prominent role. I know my being at the intersection of health, law, and data/IT skews my perspective on normal, but this seems -- well, not low, but also maybe not "not particularly insignificant" in a way that counteracts the notion of trying to get away with not paying as much either.
