Right. That's all you're changing. You're still using the entire system, with one small change. That's what makes it derivative. That mechanic doesn't exist in a vacuum, it exists with the entire protectable d20 system. Sure that one small change is too small to be protectable, that's why _you_ can't protect it. -Damian _______________________________________________ Ogf-l mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.opengamingfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/ogf-l
