With Joss Whedon we do know he played as a teen, in fact at least one show he made was definitely based on a campaign he ran (Firefly started as a Traveller game, and I've always wondered if Buffy/Angel may have had some Dark Conspiracy in their DNA since he would have been playing GDW stuff at the right time). But the new hotshot writers on the late 90s would have been the Red Box generation by age, yes.
