I didn’t quite understand Aldo’s reasoning on the Beginner’s M&M; guides. Whether or not they had a price on them, they would have certainly driven people to purchase more games, which was his stated purpose.

I was concerned that the never-before-seen items, especially in the case of Goodman Games, were going to create more of a collector frenzy because of their rarity, too; therefore, not really helping the stated goal, but giving Ebay sellers something to dump at a high price. I think the fact that GG decided to put them up for sale again at a later date corrected some of that.

Anyway, thanks for the Free RPG Week! Very classy of you guys to do that.

So, a belated “thank you”! Other people may complain but there are plenty of us who appreciate this sort of thing.
