Their setting submission was better, they thought it was a contest and are so mad that this guy broke some non-existent rule of this "contest" that they are going to have SOUR grapes and be angry even if this setting winds up outselling FR and DL combined and is the best thing since monkeys throwing pooh. Just to point out, NOWHERE did it say anything about technology levels in the guidelines we were requested to follow. Valterra said that WOTC wasn't looking for some higher technology world specifically and such a setting would have a difficult time breaking into the top 10.2. They just want to see the older settings brought back except there is a problem with that... those older settings didn't sell as well as TSR, WOTC and now Hasbro would like. Remember that Hasbro changed the way FR books are done and almost removed the heart of the setting from it. Also, maybe WOTC has plans to bring back these older settings and just haven't revealed them yet. I don't remember the DLCS being announced until after this search was started, though I could be wrong. Honestly though, I don't think there is a lot of prophet to be had in relaunching these lines for HASBRO's bottom line. WOTC maybe, but HASBRO no. I think some of the smaller companies should license these settings, let WOTC do the main book and publish it. Maybe WOTC could do one off books, who knows. But geesh, let it go...Jason</blockquote>
