R.I.P. Gary Gygax

[NJ Mark]

"Gary Gygax, who co-created the fantasy game Dungeons & Dragons and helped start the role-playing phenomenon, died Tuesday morning at his home in Lake Geneva. He was 69"

I think it's fair to say that without Gary Gygax, there might not even be fantasy LARPing today. RIP, Mr. Gygax.

I just heard this as well. It's heartbreaking. :cry:

Gary was definitely an icon.

And he was excellent on Futurama, too.

"Hello, I'm <rolls dice> pleased to meet you!"

I doubt it. Gygax will live forever in the dice rolls of ten million gamers and their successors!
