In Remembrance
 

I hadn'tseen this posted here yet, but it appears that longtime forum member Tinner (stephen A. tinner) has passed away on March 29th:

I was following his recent podcast, Critical Glitch, and though I don't think I ever met him in person (as many gamedays and Gencons) he struck me as a really nice person. It looked pretty sudden -- sudden enough that I had just started to wonder if he had podfaded or if it was a break due to life issues. Scariest thing for me is that he was same age as me -- far too early in any case. I'll miss his input and his style, and I hope his family can find peace in such a terrible time.
 




Yeah, the article is very much in poor taste, but I figured it was a satire when I read this:

"His wife told EmpireSports reports the following: “Being totally honest, I was going into the bedroom feeling completely in the mood. I saw that he was sleeping so I went to wake him and nothing. Not even a hint of him waking up. So I got worried and tried shaking him and shoving him and even hitting him across the back with a folding chair. Nothing working. I checked him breathing and there was a very short breath every few seconds. I called 911 and by the time they got here there was no breathing at all. They fought to bring him back and nothing.”
