Rest in peace good sir, I can never thank you enough for the unmeasurable hours of enjoyment you helped bring to my adolescent and teen years...

I hear the "critical failure" jokes warming up. I hope he'd have enjoyed them.

Already got one from one of my old gaming buddies, reminding me that a resurrection spell will cost CON points.

Just heard about this on Fark. Un-be-fucking-liveable. I owe a lot to that man, God bless him.

Adolescent and teen years? I just played a game 2 weeks ago... of course, it's a bit ironic that it was canceled indefinitely last week...

I too spent many of my teen years playing the game I learned at scout camp. I have toyed with the idea for several years about getting back into a game. I don't think I will now.

That is so very sad. At least he lived a long life. He left his mark on the world. He made many people happy. He lived a good life.
