Gary Gygax 1938-2008

Mar 04, 2008 19:07

Geeks everywhere salute you, Gary. You broke the barrier, and made our IC/OC gamer worlds possible, created a cultural acceptance of role-play and fantasy that has spun off into literature, movies, and video gaming. You are responsible for 75% of my adult relationships, for almost everyone whom I hold dearest I met directly or indirectly because of RPGs.

When history looks back and shines its light on the most influential people of the 20th century, your name will be there.

...the DM's been holding your place at the table. Enjoy.
