Perhaps an even better response from the GDC would be to step up and take responsibility for unintended consequences that they've created this year. I gave them full credit last year for what I thought was a great overall concept that got more teams involved than ever. But that also means that they should express their mea culpas rather than trying to prohibit an informal process that has been one of the most fruitful means of teams helping each other. As others have said its probably too late to save the game this year, but the GDC should take to heart an important lesson about future games.
