Ok. Here's an idea... Just for your bragging rights and fun times.

1) Take all leak related items (I.E unpublished minis) out of your cubicle or office....

2) Take a picture of all your DDM stuff, Rare minis, Misprints, Minis to the Max DragonEye posters and everything...

3) Post them here.

Its an idea... and at 3:24 in the morning.. I'm running out of ideas.

How about DJ infiltrates WoTC headquarters disguised as a singing telegram guy and secretly takes pics with his bowtie-cam and posts them here.

We haven't forgotten them we are shunning them, I mean its one thing to steal all the frost dwarves from the wardrums set but to replace them with that unholy abomination we got was just a slap in the face....*shakes head* unforgivable.

Eh ... not sure they can all easily separate the leakish stuff from the non-leakish. From my brief experience at their building there was alot of stuff laying around. Not all of it "really new stuff" but also some mistakes ... and given the way the community reacts to some things, I'd be gun-shy if I were WOTC posting a pic of a cubicle where someone has a paint error displayed. Could you imagine?

"Oh my god the paint in set 99 SUCKS! If this is what we can expect WOTC can go !@#$#$#! They are never going to get any more of my money and I'm going to post this on every message board on the intraweb because I'm so angry!"

So I don't post anything.

I brought a camera with me on my tour of the WotC offices  and could of taken pictures of a bunch of  unreleased stuff.   I ended up only snapping 1 picture of the lobby.   They were too cool about everything to do that.    It was a lot of fun rushing around looking into empty offices  where the  owners weren't around to hide things before our tour.    Got to see some eye popping things, but most  future stuff is just on paper.    They do their testing with proxies.

Three neat things I saw:

A  resin  demo model of a big mini  that they submitted to another company in an attempt to make a game of their  product.

A magic card proxy that had me saying "WTF? that card is way out of print"  that now makes sense  recently.

An uncut sheet of  alpha or beta  rares from  Magic the Gathering hung in a place of honor on a wall.

if you want to infiltrate WotC,  the cleaning staff is the key.   They hire out like any other company.   I'm betting they request only  janitorial staff that DOESN'T play games though.

Bshugg doesn't post very often anymore, but when he does, it's a doozy!

Would kind of be cool to see the enviroment where the game is made.

But still, ideas that are born nearly 4am tend to be a bit....wierd.
