World's Largest Dungeon?

[HiLiphNY]

It's hard for me to get excited about the product, when I'm still waiting for Amazon to ship it to me. Perhaps, Jim, AEG could expedite its shipment to Amazon, hmm?

whoa... everyone is talking on the other thread now
and this one has grown ghostly quiet.... do i need to
post another sample encounter to get people smiling
again on this thread

Actually, though I am in the same boat as others who are waiting for their amazon arrival, it's not necessarily a bad thing since others are now paving the way for an even better experience.

The advice you (and other writers) are giving here and in the other thread will no doubt prove quite helpful once my copy finally does arrive.

It was mentioned in the other thread (and I know you don't like to deal with praise, jim), but people are more excited about this product in many of the forums I have visited than I have seen in a while for any product. (Usually, once a product is out, people stop talking about it - not so with the WLD.)Even those that have found some problems with the WLD are still giving it very high marks with regards to the overall quality of the work.

While I'm sure there will be someone who eventually pans it (there's always one, isn't there?), the fact that so many people are speaking positively about the product makes me even more excited for it.

In fact, even some normally, um, shall I say, "jaded" consumers, are impressed and being persuaded to pick it up.

(And I still say it's pretty damn cool that Arneson picked one up at GenCon.)

note: the people on rpg.net are doing a fine job of bitching.
apparently, the lack of an index has stopped them from buying it

<rolling eyes>

i'm still waiting for that first angry review online... so far, i've only
seen the silven crossroads review

and yes, i was thoroughly stoked to meet, mr. arneson, let alone
shake his hand and wait a minute... he never paid for that copy

and after all the products of his i purchased over the years

i'm absolutely flummoxed



btw...

i'll be in Boise, ID on the weekend of Halloween,
attending a game convention. according to these
guys, toolbox is may raison d'etre and not WLD

If anyone's interested, I'm building a site for our campaign journal. It's still a WIP, but the first session synopsis is up, and the encounter with the doors in room A1 is pretty funny. It's more for my players than anything else... the half-orc has an Int, Wis, and Cha of 4 each.

Necro-

Your site is awesome- I love the Half-Orc and the reluctant puppy familiar.

I am jonesing for this book!! My FGS reports that it is on back-order already, apparently- it must be doing great. Congrats, Jim!

Um, I don't think I've ever seen an index in an adventure....

Although, come to think of it, I don't think I've ever seen satisfied customers on rpg.net.

Imagine that. We'll have to wait until WLD wins an ENnie next year for that to get added.
