For there is strength in numbers. Unite against WotC! ...

...I don't want 'online content'! I want a real magazine! I want a magazine published by the talented people at Paizo! Not some online crap. I want to have a magazine that I can take with me when I go somewhere! GIVE PAIZO THEIR LISCENSE BACK!!!!! Whos with me!?!!?!

So, what are you actually proposing? Boycotting WOTC is a good start but boycots are rarely effective and considering some of the "product" that WOTC has been trying to pimp, its obvious they are running out of ideas to make money.

What I think is we need a group of people who want to try and create a new dungeon magazine. It can be done with all the online gaming tools out there and even the basic online gaming rules are just fine for creating dungeons.

What we need is about 20-50 people that want to donate time and energy to put together a product. It might not be anywhere near as good as what Paizo puts out but it will seriously damage anything WOTC puts out especially if its put out BY players FOR players...

BUt what about people like me who didn't use DUNGEON for the adventures, per se, but for the exciting new ideas and resource materials it presented? I read the adventures but never actually used them because I like to create my own campaigns, but the material gave me new ideas and creative energy that invigorated some of my work. What about people like me who really disdain using prepared "adventure paths" and enjoy the act of writing an entire campaign from their own head and heart? Where do we fall in the new regime?

If I'm not mistaken the GameMastery line is designed to provide you with your fix.

I'm with Hades on this one - I used to read a lot of Dragon magazine but eventually gave it up as I got tired of the endless rule tweaks. The value of the Dungeon magazine though is endless. One single encounter/room(like the Birdcage in the las issue) can spawn off an entire plot line that takes a few weeks for the party to go through.

My job as DMing is coming to an end this June - I'll be taking a hiatus for the summer and likely another player will step in but in the mean time, I like to keep planning adventures.

I'll miss Dungeon magazine BIG TIME.

Does this GameMastery actually have mini-modules in it? Gotta go read that... if not, anyone want to step up to the plate and organize some competition here? I think there are enough of us here that would be willing to donate time just to get published...
