There are not a lot of people of your background/profile who are into Dungeons & Dragons. I am sure there's an interesting story there....I think Sarah will be quite confused if you show up at her college with a backpack of 1st Edition modules and the intention of "rolling a few dice". FoulP.S. While the amusement of watching this continue to unfold is tempting, in the interest of alleviating the general confusion:"Kacy Crawford" is a troll of some sort, most likely trying to jack up a post count so as to later spam advertisements. The introductory post above seemed a bit fishy (I'm highly suspect of "gamer girls" interested in early xD&D -- apologies to lucyjoyce, Azurah, Allison, Versimilitude, et al). However, it was the follow-on posts (since deleted by me) that really tipped me off; replies to about ten of the most recent messages in Collecting General, consisting of "LOL", "Great Post!", "ooh, this is interesting", etc. I checked the IP, and it comes back to India. I Google-searched the avatar pic, and it comes from a recent article on a college freshman named Sarah Kajani, in Georgia.So, out with the ban stick. Sorry guys. :( Rest assured that Kacy is most likely a greasy dude sitting in an Internet cafe in Bangalore.

dbartman wrote in Introduce Yourself, Fellow Collectors:Welcome to the Acaeum MrBlonde. We are glad to have you.Hope you are able to involve your children in the gaming. It truly does help to stimulate their imagination and cognitive abilities, plus it's just a fun family activity. Too much of what our kids do nowadays is detached and isolated from others.

sparkyflint wrote in Introduce Yourself, Fellow Collectors:I honestly haven't played since the early 80s and I owe a great debt to Gary Gygax et al (regret I will never have a chance to meet him now). I was surprised to see what some of the items in his estate went for, particularly the posters. How much of that was the provenance vs the rarity?
