| Ongoing Q&A with Gary Gygax - get your questions answered!
We've got Gary Gygax in for an interview on September 4th. If you want to get your questions in early, post them here 
I'll still be taking questions during the chat, but this will let me start organized.
Thanks! EDIT - Just got tired of seeing "Gary Gyxax."

| What are your current d20 projects that we would be ignorant if we didn't pick up; and secondly, what can you tell us about that we should be looking toward in the 4th quarter of 2002 and the 1st quarter of 2003?

If there's one dragon, it's a solo monster.
If there's five dragons, they're standard monsters.
If there's a dozen dragons, either most of them are minions or your DM is tired of the campaign.

| It took you how long to memorize the Oxford?
Is it true you're allergic to Strunk's Elements of Style  | |

| Are you related to the Gary character from the movie "Weird Science"?
If you could change one thing about your life, would Dave Arneson be dead?
Who is your favorite game designer? Other than yourself, you egomanical old man!

Can we clone you to ensure future generations fo Gamers get to enjoy your work as much as we have?
What one thing would you have done differently in your career looking back now in hindsight?
What advice would you give to aspiring freelancers?
What genre or specific setting that is out there, would you most like to see converted to D20?
What piece of advice would you give to Wizards regarding thier approach to D20 and its marketing as a longterm gamer and creator?
Erm there you go off the top of my noggin....

| Another one for Gary:
This is a two part question. Do you have a stalker? Do you want (another) one?

| Are there any plans to publish the original Castle Greyhawk?
(I heard rumors about a Hackmaster version, but haven't heard anything in a while) | |

| How has the d20 explosion affected your work on Lejendary Adventure?
Do you feel vindicated that the d20 system allows you to publish what is essentially D&D stuff for the D&D game?
Lately you have done a lot of d20 projects, including The Slayer's Guide to Dragons, the revamp of Necropolis, and the Canting Crew. Are these projects good examples of what you have planned or just a precursor to what is next? What d20 thing do you have in the works?
As a player, if you had to choose, would you rather adventure in the Forgotten Realms, or in Greyhawk?
What is you opinion of the Forgotten Realms as a campaign setting?

| If I offer you a blood sacrifice and get 50 copies of Necropolis, will do write for S&SS's Scarred Lands?
Okay maybe not...but serious, Gary, now with R&R2 out and since you wrote the preface for R&R1, do you think that quality of the stuff put out by S&SS has improved a great deal? | |

| Do you have any plans to work on a new campaign setting, or revisit one that you have worked on in the past.
Who are some of the new designers you would like to work with?
If you could revisit any product you have worked on, what would it be?
What do you think of the gaming industry and the hobby as it stands now as opposed to the early 1970s?
What do you see as the future of our hobby, especially the role of computers and electronic products? | |

| The 1st edition AD&D DMG (1979 - TSR Games) is adorned (front and back cover) with a David C Sutherland III rendering of three adventurers battling an efreet on the Elemental Plane of Fire. Was this inspired by one of the games that you ran (or played in) and, if so, what was the outcome of said battle? | |

| Can we see a cease and desist of Lejendary Journeys material in the D20 books? I don't like dual statted books from AEG and Holistic Design, and this is a trend I'd like to see end. | |
