Thanks to @lincodega @Gizmodo @io9

@who_blue I'm glad they're no longer playing the blame game and patronising us at least, the document will be telling.

[The Red Silks @TheRedSilks]

@thatusagyuuun @curiosityonx Reminds us of...

[Free League Publishing @FreeLeaguePub]

Today, we can announce the development of two new Open Game Licenses (OGL). One is a rework of the Year Zero Engine OGL, the other a new license specifically designed for third-party modules for the upcoming Dragonbane fantasy RPG. Full text here: https://t.co/QfPkIs707f

@Indestructoboy @ZweihanderRPG @MonteJCook @worldofdarkness @FreeLeaguePub Some great picks there @Indestructoboy and thanks for ringing the alarm bells on @Wizards_DnD, we appreciate it!

In our all evil campaign one of our players homebrewed a Great Old One Diabolist and proceeded to creep out the rest of the party 😂

The same for us, we're grateful to be meeting new friends and contacts in a hobby we adore! We're looking forward to getting to know your work @snakeappletree1 😄

In an aftermath as dust settles before the next wave, the culture changed. I would likely never heard of RedSilks without this post on the algorithm. WotC impact includes new networks thus is generative even as they fall. It’s a spinning coin. Of course it would be. D2 in motion.

All D&D live streams should follow this example and discontinue DnD campaigns and switch to a different systems
Good fantasy options
Pathfinder 2nd edition @paizo
RuneQuest roleplaying in Glorantha @Chaosium_Inc
Castles & Crusades @trolllordgames Forbidden lands @FreeLeaguePub

[The Red Silks @TheRedSilks]

Agreed, whoever they are, every RPGer in the world should grant them sanctuary, it takes serious courage to make a call like that knowing it could cost your career or your business!

@OoeyGooee If you like it, there's nothing wrong with it whatsoever. It's only problematic when it's unsolicited or worse, mansplaining 🤢🤮🤮

[The Red Silks @TheRedSilks]

Difficult decisions being made by great people in challenging times.

Sending our support to you all!

Hi all! Due to the recent events regarding the #ogl and #dnd licensing, we are not streaming tonight while we plan the future of our Sunday campaign. Stay tuned for official announcements, but in the meantime our YT and discord are still open to all.

Huge leak from an insider @Wizards

It's what we feared: the higher ups despise us, the D&D community, and see us only as an "obstacle to their money".

Subs on D&D Beyond are all WotC care about, so I've cancelled mine. Let your voice be heard #opendnd #StopTheSub

[Laughable Geek @affablerogue]

@lincodega Epic work @lincodega

Speak truth to power, shine a light on the shady business dealings!

@Wizards are going to blink and save @Wizards_DnD if we keep this pressure up!

Save #ogl 1.0

I am not allowed and I cannot comment on EVERYTHING happening on a minute by minute basis (I gotta do a journalism), but I promise I am watching, taking notes, and preparing. Thank you all for all your support of my reporting. More to come.

[lin codega @lincodega]

Hey everyone upsetti spaghetti about this; don’t take it out on WotC staff! Phone calls go to real people. Emails, texts, etc, all go to real people. Keep up the resistance, but don’t make someone’s bad day worse.

That said, keep calling, just kindly.

[lin codega @lincodega]

Will someone at Wizards please roll for fucking initiative already??

[Laughable Geek @affablerogue]

@lincodega Wizards CEO is Cynthia Williams. She doesn't appear to be on Twitter, she is on LinkedIn.

If you have time, message her with your objections and intention to boycott. Please keep it polite and civil, we need to focus on keeping #OpenDnD

[Spectre Creations @spect_creations]

Finally something we can all agree on.

EVERYONE BE ON ALERT TODAY! According to my inside sources, WoTC was SUPPOSED to announce all of their OGL 1.1 partners today. Obviously, things have changed, but they might still be announcing something today.
