(urth) OT: Anathem

[Pedro Pereira]

He did die a few months back. As for playing D&D, I did but then moved on for "better" stuff.

I think I would let Gary slide, it's not cool to pick on D&D kids they have enough problems as it is.





And didn't he die a few months back? 

As I understand (from reading Michael Moorcock's comments on this), early D&D was very upfront about the sources it used - apparently they used to cite Tolkien, Moorcock, Leiber, Vance, et al. in the guidebooks. Now - not so much.

I never played myself, but surely there are some "D&D kids" here? My parents were always suspicious of it, so it wasn't really an option for me. I got my watered-down fantasy through Japanese videogames, thank you very much.
