A Year Without Gygax

I can't believe it's been a year since we lost Gary Gygax. A year ago tomorrow, Andy, Jill (my wife), and I played one session of a Basic D&D game. It was Jill's first time playing an RPG, but she did great, after a little initial confusion and discomfort which I think is pretty common for first-timers. Unfortunately, we never got back to that game, but I'm thinkin' that tomorrow night we may find out what happened to Fingol and Sneaky Pete. Call it our Second Annual Gary Gygax Memorial Basic D&D Game.

Gygax

I realize that this isn't a general RPG blog or anything, but Gary Gygax died today and that makes me sad.
