There are two Next Big Projects(tm)? Intriguing.

That's pretty glowing. If I thought that Caravel had money, I might have assumed that they had bought some PR.

Her interest in DROD RPG is the most suspicious aspect, as she skips over the relatively frequent case where an unprepared player has to start over from the beginning. Her uniformly positive tone, particularly regarding the newest (and most obtuse?) release, definitely sounds like she's marketing for us, but I guess that's hardly a problem. Why should I complain?

The dialogue is humourous, particularly that of Tendry’s character, who must at times use his tongue instead of his sword for a quick repartee against the enemy.

Maybe I should ask for a raise.

I think that money went to the PR budget.

I like Carl's writing in the blog quite a lot. What makes it good is that he doesn't just comment about the game, but comes up with general thoughts on games that apply. His observations have depth.
