Monthly previews

2 boring things with the monthly previews :

- they are almost never on time (May being the exception), and sometimes vanish completely. There MUST be someone not doing his job...

- They never even give a small hint of the content of the adventure books/modules. I know they don't want to spoil them, but frankly, a few excerpts of a 240-page book isn't going to be that much of a spoiler. I'd have a better chance to buy these if I had spoilers...

That was my minor rant. Bye bye.

I think that WotC are working on getting the timing of the previews down to a consistent pattern. I know that the last couple sets have been really inconsistent (often due to illnesses) and I'm thinking that they're realizing that, while trivial in most other aspects, the previews are important to the fans. Especially to a significant number of fans who purchase multiple cases.

"Late" or "Early" are relative terms. What is needed is consistency: be it Wednesday at 11pm (CDT) or Thursday at 11am (CDT).

Things suddenly appearing on time coincides nicely with the whole Dragon cancelling/Digital initiative thing. I personally think the only reason the previews were on time is because so many people (myself included) have wondered how they could be expected to run a timely ezine when they can't even give on time updates to the online face of their company.
