OK, for a while now I've been watching WOTC's massive license pull with growing interest. I noticed they even pulled the electronic licenses for the e-tools and PCGen community authorized D&D content. Then I saw they were hiring a ton of web developers and artists, and I started speculating that they were going to make their own electronic gaming toolset. That may be true some day, but for now it looks like a lot of that talent was working on this: GLEEMAX
According to the site's first announcement, they will be hosting a lot of things that exist already on sites such as ENworld... but, this will be funded by WOTC - and therefore could look really cool because the artwork and tools are being done for hire instead of as fan-work. BUT, and like the posterior of the great wrestler Yokozuna, this is a big but - unless there is a profit/revenue source for the site I predict nothing much will come of it. There are already more than enough sites out there for fans of gaming, including WOTC's own site at www.Wizards.com.
So what will it be?
We'll wait and see.
