Yes! It was, if I recall, two out of two (or perhaps three) at that point. Agreed. I seem to have done it myself, but "lazy" is itself hyperbole - I don't think anyone who worked on it is likely to agree that they were lazy. Time-strapped? Under staffed? That sort of thing, most probably. I...

You had TIME to run it all the way to 20? I am soooo jelly that give me PB and bread, and I'd have a sandwich!

Did I say that? I suppose that may have come off stronger than I intended. At any rate, the first time he used the term "lazy", I let it go, because I really wanted to know what he had to say. The second time I commented, because it seemed to be a forming pattern. Also, I don't think I ought to...

Two is too many to be polite, and you glossed over the part where I said that it was too bad that you couldn't be civil, because I was interested in what you had to say, otherwise. From my perspective, very few people were dismissive of your choice to critique (we welcome it, in fact). They...

AFAICT, the whole reason for "backwards compatibility" was to keep the Adventures in print without needing to revise them. It's part of the whole point.

I don't entirely disagree with you, but there's no need to rewrite lore - as far as I can tell, Orcs have done everything that they have ever done. It's just that by 1501dr in Faerun, many of the various "tribes" have made peace with much of their neighbours. Some still cling to the old ways, or...

I saw it for free (back then, I regularly was comped movie tickets) and I desperately wanted my two hours back. I was robbed.

I think that it would seem right.

I'm looking forward to it as well. I will be back in action around then, I expect. I still miss Snarf, though!

Sorry... you mean businesses can't pay employees the same to work 20 hours as they get for working 40. No, of course not. Not with a snap of the fingers. It would require a whole sea change in how things are done, and that definitely gets onto politics, so we will have to drop it.

I mean, that would be a good thing if humans were, say, reduced to a 20-hour (or less) work week. The trouble is, they'd have to be paid a living wage for that work. Modern business doesn't want to do that.

Yeah, I think we are in deep, too. I left it vague in case anyone thinks that it counts as political. I don't agree that it does, but I have been wrong about that before.

This is great news. D&D is in good hands. @JusticeArman, congratulations!

Man, the only way that I could answer any of your questions would be to watch it. And I am not sure that I want to.

I thought so. I was sure that I remembered your posts. You're like me then - enjoy the thing for a lark, but concerned about the overall impact on skilled professionals. (Mostly, in my case, because I don't trust those with the money to not want to use it to cut others out from their...
