In my opinion, GR is only able to do this because WotC hasn't challenged them on it (I assume). I find the entire workings of 'Power Points' to be derivative of the game mechanics provided through the SRD. Interesting and nice, but without the rest of the mechanics, nothing is really there. But as long as WotC doesn't seem to mind (and based on the recent discussion concerning clear identification, WotC doesn't seem to mind much) GR is free to claim their 'Power Point' system as PI. However anyone using the OGL and trying to figure out what to do based on the examples of others best understand that if your exemplars aren't doing it right, that doesn't provide you with an excuse. alec (the guy with the law degree who isn't an attorney) __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
