Sorry, Andrew, but I'm gonna spill the beans. You know I don't work there,
and I have ZERO inside information (including from you); but I want everyone
else to understand that the following is COMPLETELY beyond my ability to
prove. But I remain convinced...
I GUARANTEE the OGL has been discussed within SJG. After all, they haven't
fired all the gamers who work there, and it's an industry-savvy place. It
may or may not have been discussed FORMALLY or in terms of plans relating to
OGL; but I'll sooner believe in a character with six natural 18s than I'll
believe that a bunch of gamers there have never discussed the matter over
lunch or at the coffee pot or anything.
Now I won't even guess at whether formal plans (or formal non-plans) have
been made there regarding OGL. I don't know the current company vision well
enough to speculate. And I know that you can neither confirm nor deny any of
this. But I know gamers. Given that one gamer there knows about the topic --
i.e., you -- the topic MUST have been discussed.
