Re: Gary Gygax, Passing of an Icon.
I also was saddened when I heard the news. I didn't really get the chance to play D&D until I went to college. then I met some people in my military days who played. Those were some good times, even if we weren't playing AD&D. I sure miss playing now; I'm tired of playing solo on my computer. I miss the camaderie of a bunch of people sitting down together, even if one of them was the token a$$hole who had to know everything without opening the book. Maybe when my son is older he'll get involved and invite the old man to play. One can only hope.

There's always online gaming. I'm running a dungeon crawl on a forum.

And the sad thing is, he never saw a cent from all of this.

Re: Gary Gygax, Passing of an Icon.
...I'm pretty sure he did.
To quote my tribute on another forum: 'Very few people can say they were part of creating a new art form.
At least I'm sure the gaming is better up there.'

I am Dark wolf at the OOTS forums. I pointed out it was quite a coincidence Roy just went back to Heaven in time to meet him.
