It seems that the United Bigots of Tennessee have hoodwinked a Judge into issuing a restraining order against the Oregon Equality Act.
Today, people should have been celebrating their union are instead stuck with a candlelight vigil and another round of frustration.
The good news is, it's a TRO, so this mess could all mercifully end on February 1st. The bad news is if the judge rules that indeed signing a petition carries the same weight as voting, then we'll have to wait even longer for an election to get this decided, and the bad guys might win.

4th Edition? Damnit!
About a month ago I posted about my general D&D love, and in that post I whimsically mention the future 4th Edition. Yesterday, the D&D home page was replaced with a strange page titled “4dventure" that had a countdown that ended at 3:30 today.
At the end of that countdown, the D&D website, of course, crashed. Once it came up, I saw this:
When yesterday's countdown page went up, I knew. But it wasn't in stone until the image you see above popped up. I find myself a little heartbroken, as 3.5 wasn't tired, or played out. It has plenty of life in it in my opinion, but no, they're going with a new frelling edition, as of May 2008.
It's all about money, I know; It just won't be ours. Oh, I'll read them (Arghh ye matey!), don't get me wrong, I just don't see myself playing 4E, at least for quite some time.
In the meantime, for now at least, roll the dice baby! We'll give up 3.5 when they pry it from our cold, angry, undead fingers.
Update:
As Sadimac said in the comments, WoTC just lost us as customers. Unless they do some major changes to what they propose, we'll be pirating, copying, or buying things used from this point forward. I'll put up a full review of what they're doing next week some time.
It's not just a new edition, it also smacks of extortion. More later.
