Hey there, wanted to ask regarding the PDF, what’s the reason for the watermark? Doesn’t CC BY-SA indicate it’s okay to share anywhere as long as the “BY” and “SA” bits are observed? I love the system and would like to share the PDF with my gaming groups to convince them to give it a shot, but not if it could potentially put my DTRPG account at risk.

While the text is CC BY-SA, the art, layout and other assets aren’t. I was strongly advised to watermark the actual PDF but make the PDF’s text copy-paste-able, so that the rules can be redistributed freely while the images would be somewhat protected. This is the same thing you’ll see with the other CC BY-SA stuff like Dungeon World and such.
That said: Feel free to share it with your friends! Enjoy! (And hopefully they’ll toss a couple of bucks into the hat if they are interested in the game :P).
It’s not like you’re uploading this to a filesharing site or something, so it’s very unlikely it’ll run you into trouble.
Ah, that makes sense. Looking forward to giving it some playtime (and maybe some of our more dead-tree-friendly players will want to spring for their own copy ;))
