The problem with that is that they were at least in part responsible for
it. If you're FASA and you want to do a special edition of your book for
GenCon, fine. If you want to keep it a secret, that's okay too. But it got
out somehow, either though here or the distributors, or whoever. And the
whole thing could have been pared down if FASA had put up an announcement
on their web page to the effect that "This is what we're doing and what you
can get. We wanted to keep it a secret, but we goofed. Oh well, see you at
GenCon."
10 minutes of official FASA time would have gone a long way to damp down
the rumors of what was going on.
