First off I would like to echo all the sentiments of support and praise for the way Paizo handled all this. You guys have been awesome. How many other companies would have had direct contact with customers all the way up to CEO level (thanks Lisa) I think I even saw posts from Vic Wertz answering people on saturday!
We are all probably (for various reasons) still angry at WOTC but I want to avoid all that vitriole on this thread and be more optomistic.
A while ago you asked us what kept us comming back to the paizo site and community. Probably a little market research on your part to make sure we didn't all say "official D&D". However, what came through loud and clear was that everyone liked the community atmosphere.
I have read hundreds of posts over the last couple of days and while people are worked up the community is shinning through. All the "Lords of the boards" seem to have signed up to Pathfinder, even Heathy seems to have calmed down a little and returned to his usual humourous posts.
We have all been so shocked by the news that we have consentrated on how it affects us. What I am mostly concerned with right now is how is affects you. I feel you huys did your bit for us (getting Pathfinder ready, answering posts, clming us down etc), I want to make sure we do enough for you.
So my question is this. Pathfinder needs to be a success to keep you guys in jobs (and us in quality material), hows it looking so far? Are you getting the numbers you need subscribing? What % of the way are you to break even?
Good luck,
Elcian
