Merle Rasmussen: contact info sought

[grodog]

Hi all---

I'm trying to track down Merle Rasmussen of Top Secret, et al, fame. He was on the boards sometime in the past two years or so. Does anyone have a current email and/or ENWorld username for him?

I'm trying to track down details about a card game that he created back in the early 1980s.

Thanks!

Ask MEG_Hal, he should have recent contact info.

I hope someone can get him to post on the boards here again. It was, indeed, a couple years back when he was alerted to a discussion of the original Top Secret and joined the message boards here. A number of game designers from that time period were reappearing around that time (including Gygax, of course!). Unfortunately, the boards decided to go down and/or run as slow as molasses in January just after he first posted, and by the time they came back up, I reckon he - like anyone would - had simply lost patience. It'd be nice to see him post here, especially about the designing of Top Secret and the various adventures for the game.

Thanks guys, I pinged Hal.

Long time no see Col. H. How've you been?

If you still have problems, give me a holler and I'll see if I can track his username/email down.

You've got mail PC (though, I'll note that if I didn't already have your email, I wouldn't have been able to PM or email you via your profile....).

alan, you ever get back to that thing we were talking about before?

Quite well. Good to see you again also!

I haven't had time to dig into it in earnest, BOZ, but I haven't forgotten about it either. I will probably have time to talk at GenCon, if you'll be there? If not, I should be freer from RL work and game publishing obligations after the show.

You got my email, right? His user name (and email) is still in our records, but I have no real way to find it because his posts were on an earlier incarnation of the boards. If anyone can remember who he posted as, I'll have it in a shot.
