    A Moment of Silence..

    Gary Gygax co-creator and founder of Dungeons & Dragons passed away this week.

    Anyone who's ever played an RPG or MMORPG owes this guy a nod..

    Yeah I saw that....he was a figurehead of all geeks(geek isn't bad) everywhere. I never got into D&D, but it was the CS of his time I suppose. All RPG and MMORPG play should stop for a day, in memorium...

    D&D, I heard of that. How did he die? Was it because he got too frustrated with the game and shot himself like other people? lmao thats messed up but what happened to him just old age?
