Dragon Magazine help sought - Gygax article content

[grodog]

Hello everyone---

When 3e was debuting, I hadn't resubscribed to Dragon, and was buying issues that caught my eye at my FLGSs. As a result, I have a few holes in my collection of Gygax "Up on a Soapbox" issues. Specifically, I don't have Dragon issues 267, 268, 269, 270, 271, 273, 277, 282, and 283.

Would some kind souls please check EGG's "Up on a Soapbox" columns in those issues, and let me know if they contain any useful Greyhawk information? Gary didn't start to write about Castle Greyhawk and the early days of D&D until issue 287, so my hunch is that I'm OK, but I'd like to double-check and be sure that I'm not missing any relevant GH lore.

Thanks!

268, 269, 270, 273, 277, 282 and 283 are all dissertations on the nature of roleplaying and make no mention of Greyhawk. I can't help you on 267 or 271.

Thanks JustKim!

Can anyone else speak to the content in issues 267 and 271?

Thanks JustKim!

Can anyone else speak to the content in issues 267 and 271?

267, discussion of the term "fanboy." 271, discussion of people who criticize games as not being "real roleplaying."

No Greyhawk content from Gygax in these issues.
