Tangential to this post, will all the PDFs be removed from w23? (Not including the ones already bought, of course.)

Luckily I already bought everything (I think? Dang, have to check to see if any are still out there...), so I don't have to worry.

That is what the press release linked from the Illuminator article says.

Yes. On January 1, 2016, all GURPS Traveller PDFs will mysteriously vanish from Warehouse 23.

The exception is that any PDFs that you've bought will remain in your library forever, so you can re-download them at your convenience. Buy it once, own it forever.

That was how I read the pragmatic question:
If my computer catches fire in mid-January, will I be able to re-download these PDFs? Apparently, yes.

I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you. If you made the decisions at SJGames, would you put effort into something you could sell for less than five months, or into something you can sell for years?

And today is is GURPS Thaumatology: Sorcery, which seems to be advantage-based magic.

I would release them, but I'm an obsessive completionist, not any sort of actual businessman. It's undoubtedly a good thing for the company that I'm not in charge at SJGames...

It is! I've said much more in this thread, and you can also learn more about it via the W23 description and the preview PDF (particularly the intro).

You've got Horrific Creations down as the prediction for this week, but it came out last month.
