I will agree with the statement that "E40K isn't selling" but I have to add
that the one of the reasons it isn't selling is that they are not pushing
it in the least and as I have found from just the two stores locally which
have dropped Epic entirely, it is because they force the distributors to
buy more than they want to carry which goes back to they don't push it
which could increase sales and cause the distributors to buy more. The
stores I have visited always shove it in the back corner (even the GW
store). The GW store has been around almost a year and I have seen them
break it out for the customers to try once.

It's true. There are at least 20 folks on this list who don't hate E40K!

Therefore not EVERYONE hates it.

However, since E40K isn't selling, it is most likely that Jimi IS speaking
for the majority (of gamers, not the "majority on the defacto E40K list")
when he generalises...

Generally...
