That's nonsense. I can run KotB on the fly using octaNe and a few name changes. And that definitely isn't D&D.

Maybe "use a module on the fly without a problem" causes the misunderstanding. To me, it only makes sense (when trying to figure out if a game is a house ruled D&D or an entirely different one) if it actually means "use a module with its own game stats"; i.e. if a game uses Hit Dice, one could use the ones offered in KotB.

But I am not Melan, so it is up to him to clarify that statement (if he feels like it).

The question is nuncupatory. That's all.

Pardon my ignorance, but does that mean there will be a sound byte of the question read orally? I'm not following the usage of nuncupative.
