TSR all the way! WotC managed to mangle everything. <Oh God, did they hear me?>

Better for D&D was definitely TSR. Better for sales probably WotC.

Lol people don't like WotC. At least those that have been in the game for 10 years or more.

WoTC does a good job of pumping out new editions and versions of every game they get their hands on - making them lots of money
TSR was just about good games.

If the story is true, TSR was a floundering strategy game company that did a good job, with the help of Gary Gygax, of stealing somebody's innovative idea and marketing it as their own.

Yet he takes all the credit for the game. |

I honestly have no idea what you are talking about. I'm just being a smart arse
EDIT:
Even if TSR and Gygax stole the idea from someone else.. WotC still ruined the game...

I think it would be cool if they re-released 2nd Edition with new artwork.
