[QUOTE="Parmandur, post: 7833095, member: 6780330"] The opening statement in an article about misogyny in the early D&D scene: "Almost every copy of the [B][U]first [I]Dungeons & Dragons [/I]adventure written by a woman[/U][/B] is buried in a landfill in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin." The incident recap ends with the following passage: “It was what Jean wanted it to be,” Sullivan said of the module. (Wells passed away in 2012.) “It was her baby. And for another place and another time, it probably would have been just perfect,” Sullivan said. Those retracted modules, now dubbed the “orange versions,” are buried somewhere under Lake Geneva’s flat, Midwestern landscape. It was soon rewritten by D&D designer Tom Moldvay and redistributed with [B][U]Wells’ name relegated to the second credit[/U][/B]." D'Antastasio is making the point that a not really objectionable book written by a women got the snow job due to office politics, and then spends the rest of the article talking about misogyny.
