    TSR Q&A with Gary Gygax

    Wow, thanks for the speedy response! :D Well, you made some great design choices as the art and overall design was fantastic. I wish more modules had been done in such a style. And, I'm pleased to say, that eerie quality anbd sadness has always resonated with me quite strongly. One of the...

    TSR Q&A with Gary Gygax

    Hi Gary! One of my favourite modules you created (that I have run several times, with great success amongst my fellow gaming comrades) was the great Forgotten Temple of Tharizdun. What I was wondering was, what inspired the creation of such a nasty fellow as Tharizdun and such a awesome...

    Ah, sorry Gary and Nathan P. Mahney, :o I was just joking around! I thought the goofy little face at the end of my statement cleared that up :\ . No harm or offense was intended, I apologise profusely to any who were directly or indirectly hurt by my post.

    TSR Q&A with Gary Gygax

    Hi Gary, I was wondering, what prompted you to name the Greyhawk campaign Greyhawk? Does it have any particular signifigance or did it just sound "right" to you at the time? Also, is the Blackmoor presented therein the same as Arneson's ( as I recall it was a supplement for OD&D) or just a...

    TSR Q&A with Gary Gygax

    Hiya Gary! So, I'm online and I figure I'll check out Amazon to see what Jack Vance novels they got and maybe I'll pick up a few ( I asked you awhile ago about his works influence on the magic system in AD&D, before the site crash or whatever happened here on EN World) and wow, the choice was...

    Hey there Gary These are some pretty standard questions I suppose, and no doubt have been asked this before, but I have not been fortunate enough to have heard the answer. So, apologies for the repeat of query :) What I was wondering was: From a player's perspective, what is your...

    Thanks Gary! Too bad for me I guess! If not for weddings and such, I'd be there in a shot. Pretty sweet for you though (and the people at the con!) Anyway, maybe next year I'll be able to make it to LG. Here's hoping!

    TSR Q&A with Gary Gygax

    Hello Gary! How are things? Very well I hope. Gary, I was just wondering, do you have any plans in the forseeable future of perhaps visiting up here in Toronto? Personally, I do know there is a big sci fi con at the convention centre here in downtown, which of course attracts a lot of gamers...

    Palladium?

    Well, I see what you're saying. But TSR didn't really give up, it was mismanaged (as far as i understand things anyway) right out of business! But even though I'm not really all that fond of Palladium and the rules etc, I do admire how KS has kept control of his company and product, and why...

    Nice stuff! Thank you so much for the response! :D Any composers/ artists that are particular favourites? Do you ever get a chance to listen to any contemporary composers, and if so do any of them appeal at all? One of my favourites is Phillip Glass ( Liquid Days/ Soundtrack for Candyman/...

    TSR Q&A with Gary Gygax

    Hi Gary! Just curious, not that this is really a game related question per say, but, has any particular piece of art/music ever played an influence on anything that you've ever designed (module, supplement or novel)? If so, what type ? Also, me just be an inquisitive individual, what type...
