One Less Gamer

While it's progressed to poker and the CPL - the whole thing really started with a game called Dungeons and Dragons. Now, the co-creator, Gary Gygax has passed on. He was 69. The CPL family is a little sadder tonight.

The secret we should never let the gamemasters know is that they don't need any rules.

I am saddened to read about the passing of Gary Gygax. Many many hours Phil, Jeff, and I sat around a grid tossing 4, 8, 10, and 20 sided dice while attacking the unknown and, of course, coming out victorious. Dungeons and Dragons was not only a great time, it taught us at a very young age to work together, plan together, think creatively, and most importantly, taught us that it is sometimes better NOT to fight but instead try to talk with the unknown monster aproaching us.

D&D will always have a special place in my heart. Farewell Gary...
