I know I always keep complaining about the same thing, but figure what would have happened if Paizo managed to buy copyrights over greyhawk. The recently released Cities of Golarion which contains 6 detailed cities could have described in detail Hardby, Rel Astra, Rel Mord etc...
AND they would have done it with fan support, listening to our requests and complains.

I just shiver at the thought of Greyhawk in the hands on deisgners like Bruce Cordell (not attacking the person of course, just his professional works which, in my opinion, are among the worse in the history of D&D).[/b]

Well as Bruce Cordell goes I think he was pretty good myself. He basically was responsable for the Far Realm in D&D and his niche since then had been Cthulhuian horror stuff. What has he done recently in 4e? I have no clue, but my finger is definitely off his pulse.

As to paizo and fan collaboration, not only do they listen to us, they also have been holding annual designer contests to find new talent, unlike WotC which since the Digital Initiative has increasingly been circling the wagons, staying inhouse and even doing their annual lay offs of D&D staff. What hope could a newb writer ever have getting published in Dragon/Dungeon now?

You guys are just bound and determined to depress us, aren't you? Sad

Not happening! Evil Grin

Thank goodness for Canonfire! Well keep Greyhawk going on in hearts. I've no doubt we can outlast WotC and their insane business decisions. Paizo may end up with Greyhawk yet. Wink

There's always hope! Happy

Don't do it, Bubbagump! Don't do it! Shocked

Surely that post about the female gnome servant of Tharizdun cheered you up!? Evil Grin Laughing Laughing Laughing

Not as long as the last few Needfest specials, but it does not disappoint. I loved it! Thanks Mort.

Wolfsire: That was not the Needfest Special. You'll know it when you see it.

Mystic: Now I had a choice between Angelina Jolie and Megan Fox and I went with Megan Fox thinking she was just as recognizable as Jolie. Guess not :P

Don't be disappointed Mort. There are a great many starlets that I am unfamiliar with. I don't keep up with Hollywood, nor do I see that many movies these days (not too many interest me). Razz

I'm sure plenty of others knew who she was. Personally, I think I may have heard her name on the news, or something. But I'm unfamiliar with Megan's "work." And I don't care for Angelina anyway, so you made the better choice. Wink

Thanks for the info. Happy

Epic! Really, Needfest is a time for getting together, in Graz'zt's lair. Where'd you get the picture of Rary and Robilar, by the way?

Mort, you out did yourself with that one. That was truly incredible! Happy

Now I'm going to spend the rest of the year wondering how you're going to out do that NEXT year! Evil Grin

Thanks Mort, outstanding stuff! Wink

Rasgon: These things start out so innocent and then turn epic. Man I'm glad it's done. The Rary-Rob pic is from LGJ #21 I think. The first article of two about the Bright Desert by Creighton Broadhurst.

Mystic Scholar: Yeah I dread needfest evey year and it seems I procrastinate harder each time. When I say its a Needfest miracle I don't kid. These things are hard to get finished in time. Whew!

Yay! Thanks for the Needfest cheer, Mort.

I especially liked the "colorized" versions of H, K, and V.

Yes, I think the red sweater really complements' Vaprak's greenishness. The irony of Hruggek wearing a scarf is subtle too. As for 'Kirt'ulmak, he likely slew an elf to get that green hat. Happy

Just as a heads-up, Mortellan, your History of Greyhawk strip is a featured link on Nodwick.com :)

Thanks Pat! Good find. That is way too cool to see. I worked my butt off on that strip back in August so it's good to see it's still getting read. :)
