Ok, I know I said I'd drop it, but I just wanted to let you know that I was
attempting to be clever in my original response, but it turned out sounding
far more harsh than I intended.  I actually did understand what you meant,
but my attempt to sound clever exceeded my ability to ;)

Now, *that* I understand.... I currently play D&D with two groups - one is
considering switching to 3e, and the one I run is switching to TFT (yea!).

Both groups, however, fit in the "D&D core audience" fold, and all they want
to do is go dungeon-delving, kill more things, and get more treasure than
they got last time.  It sucks, but the group I run has been gaming together
for nearly 20 years, and I've tried to evolve them into role-players, but
it just hasn't worked....

It does make writing adventures easier, tho ;)
