I'm not a producer, but by now you all should know I just don't shut up. If it's only about six more names I'd go with your option 2. It just seems easier and more keeping with what's gone before. I've also thought some more about including an optional credit statement for individual entries. Re-users wouldn't be required to include this material, but they'd be kindly asked to include it. Essentially with each creature rather than have an independent s.15 you'd include something like this: (I took names from one of Clark's posts, so I hope I have a creature correctly matched to the author.) Kamadan **** info on creature * * * **** Credit: Authored by Scott Greene, based on original material by Nick Louth In the introduction to the book or where ever you talk about using OGC, you could simply ask that anyone using a creature from Tome of Horrors to please include the credit line in their product. Perhaps with the first stat block of the creature or on their own acknowldgements page. This could probably be included in the OGC aspects of the creature (I can't think of any negative effect of doing so at the moment), but it would also be easy to simply claim the Credit line as PI and then give permission to use that line only for the purpose of properly crediting the authors. The obvious problem with this idea is that it doesn't require that proper credit is given when a creature is re-used by someone. But if you combined this with #2 from the poll, you'd make sure that authors/originators were always given some credit (from s.15) as well as providing a way to give specific credit for each creature. Just another idea to throw into the pot I guess. alec _______________________________________________ Ogf-l mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.opengamingfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/ogf-l
