Why have I not seen this thread before? AS A NEW RULE, I declare that every thread in the GMG should have at least one reply. I have filled the quota.

Also, Gary rocked, and his legacy lives on. End of story. :D

I never saw this tread either. May he rest in peace.

I must be dreaming (wake up me wake up) How could this have happened. Tireas' cry when he found his computer fallen over in his chair with it's screen shattered.

I don't think he had a level I think he played the DM most of the time.

Indeed, though I believe he had a sage at level 25 or something.
