huh, what? I never heard of it.

Fri Sep 18, 2009, 11:54 PM
I have all of these comments on my Deviant page about the job offer. What job offer? The job offer over at GygaxGamers.com, with contract and the involvement of the family.

Well, here is the sad news. The site was apparently a scam run by a person known as Captain Sinith, aka d20gamer, aka Talensword, aka (Real name still currently unknown). In the midst of some questioning and the story of his previous lawsuit I sought escape or at least the security of the family. So I called Gail Gygax, the late Gary's wife.

Gail claimed she never heard of the site and the man was cashing in on her late husband's name. Wow! So she had the site taken down.

Well, deviants, the news gets even sadder. For a brief moment in time Gail recollected the site and the individual responsible. He had apparently done some work with her, and his claim is that he will be subcontracting to work with Troll Lord Games. You know why I believe it? Because! In email, the kinda communication that can act as evidence, Gail suddenly did not know anything about GygaxGamers.com Well, how is she going to remove history?

This is a list of people that Gail Gygax will be working with:

Mongoose Publishing
Troll Lord Games
gygax-games.com (uh.. no 'r' this time? No! Btw, that's her 'new' company, now about 1 year old.)

Captain Sinith has sold work to: Green Ronin, and also works with the above.

Is this really respect of Gary's legacy? Well shit then, no wonder he lost TSR.

Are you still looking for artists? Because people are still posting in that thread of yours and yet we have not heard a word from you.

(In case yes, I am interested.)
