Not arguing with you here, but I heard from several sources that the non-DDN 2 hour adventure was LFR. Never had the time to actually go play it and confirm that. Too busy running LFR.

It might be a good idea to get the story straight with WotC before the next con.

Any chance of it being released as an ADAP? 




Your sources are mistaken. The 2-hour adventure that ran at GenCon and PAX Prime this year ("The Dawn of Night" which ran in the "West Wall" room) was a preview adventure for the D&D Encounters season that just started last week ("The Council of Spiders"). The adventure used pre-generated characters only (all drow) and featured a high likelihood of the PCs killing one another before the end of the adventure--which is not very LFR-like at all. Players who took part in the adventure could earn rewards that they could apply to their D&D Encounters character for this season. Since it has nothing to do with LFR, and the whole story hinges on the backstories of the pre-generated characters, I would guess the likelihood of it being released for LFR is somewhere between zero and none.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

Edit: Sorry Greg had to be the bearer of bad news.

Any updates on the state of this program?

A recap on the results of the program would also be welcomed.

Thanks for the update, Claire!  I'm going to get my glutes in gear, and put together a submission this time out. Laughing

Of the ten people who indicated interest I received 9 actual proposals.

Three were offered the chance to develop their adventures. Unfortunately only one of the three adventures actually ended up being published for various real life reasons.

Three of the other  prospective authors were recommended to Writing Directors as candidates for projects. Two collaborated on one adventure and another took over for an author who could not complete an adventure due to real life issues.


 So while the campaign only gained one adventure out of the program, four authors gained experience.

Hopefully we can do a bit better this year.Smile

Thks for the analysis.

Ya, for a first try i think we can definately consider it a sucess (moderate, but a success anyway).

Lets hope for even better results this time around.
