[Sammael]

I support this initiative.

Rest In Peace, Mr. Gygax, and thanks for everything.

[Mistwell]

Agreed. No arguing about 4e for me today.

 

[delericho]

Nor me.

 

[Riley]

I kind of feel like EN World should... do something. Some grand, stupid gesture -- like a 1000 gp gem for Ernie or something.

Seconded.

 

[BryonD]

I'm in.

 

[Mephistopheles]

I see I'm not alone in feeling like I've had the wind taken out of my sails today.

 

[AZRogue]

Ah, crap. This is horrible news.

To Gary: You made your mark, sir. You made your mark.

 

[Geron Raveneye]

I agree.

Though I have never met him before, I feel as if I do indeed know Gary Gygax, and deeply mourn his passing. It was Gary's D&D that got me into Role-playing as a kid, and it was partly his willingness to answer an email from a California college student with a dream that enabled me to take the initiative to begin publishing Role-Playing Games myself. Were it not for his advice & example, Basic Action Games may never have existed.

His passing touches us all, and I think also links us together-- whether we are Grognards, Indy Gamers, 4e enthusiasts-- we have all experienced a great loss. Gary, you will be missed, by all of us.
