By all means, stay excited!

(I'm just a pessimist by nature, and the long and rocky road this book has walked already has left me cautious...)

Whenever the new BRP will be published, and whatever problems it may then
still have, it will doubtless be at least as good as the Zero Edition - and for
me this is sufficient reason for a very excited Yay !

Pessimism is generally accurate, I find. (Look, I don't want to say too much, but haven't you guys heard of tempting fate?)

No it's more of a Python yay.

If not a YAY then how about an HUZZAH!

Seriously, I know from experience a bit of what Jason has gone through. By the time a book gets printed, the publication process has wrung most of the joy out of you. But lets remember this might be the book that opens the door for BRP to grow and get the recognition it deserves. I got a Zero-th Edition and I'll be getting the 1st Edition too.

Three cheers for BRP!

Hard for anyone who's participated in the RPG hobby for any length of time not to get cynical about release dates--and just about impossible for anyone who's worked in it...

Yeah, Chaosium's site still says it's due for release "early next year" - I hope that's just not been updated since '07, but maybe they mean it...

"Out next year" is traditional Chaosium.

Hey Jason Im very thankful that the BRP book was made. I bought the zero edition and plan on picking up the 1st edition when it comes out. I have loved the system since I played back in the 80's. My opinion from edition zero is you did a great job Jason. Hope you continue with more projects for chaosium.
