No - in fact right now is the first I've heard of Kuntz and Zagyg being a part of it.
I normally hate convention role-playing, but I might have done it just to see their DMing styles.

I played all strategy games:
Wreckage, Bridges of Shangri-La (can't remember the last game that good), Titan, Chez Goth, FRAG.  Highlight for me was Big Idea and Give Me the Brain with Cheapass founder James Ernest.

The show was a lot smaller than I expected.  Saturday was about double Friday, Sun I wasn't around.  There were more events offered than players, so lots of events canceled and people drifted over to add to whatever did have enough.

All in all, reasonably enjoyable, and I plan to go back, but I don't know if I'll do F+S, S+Su or just S next time.

- Unearthed Arcana. GOOD condition. Some pages separated from binding
World of Greyhawk Gazetteer (the one that came with the original Folio World of Greyhawk)
- Zanzer's Dungeon module pack? (some sort of tabbed adventure booklet in a little boxed sleeve. Also the map for Zanzer's Dungeon.

Tom Thumb!  Welcome to the forums!  

For being so bold as to ask for this stuff over 6 months after I posted it, I think I can arrange a few freebies.   I am sure I have several Basic Red rulebooks and a beat up old Players handbook.

PM (private message) me your address - or, you can just post it if you don't care if the forum knows.

Paul

I have a complete red box basic set in fair condition that I got off of E-Bay not long ago for one penny. 8O  
The books are in good condition, box is basically not good at all, Its a long story.  :roll:  
I would be willing to send it to you for TRUE shipping costs and eat the penny I paid.  :wink: :)

I would want to keep the dice bag and crayon though. PM me if you are interested....

lol, nope I have a box that the reb box set will fit safely in and the box should keep the red box set fairly safe from additional damage. If he wants I can send it in a padded envelope, but I recommend highly against it. The books are still nice enough to not want them damaged even though the red box is in poor condition. 8)

Hey!  I started this thread as a nice gesture to fellow members.  Let's try to keep the bickering to a minimum.

Play nice!

Traveller. . . who knows?  I have tons of odds and ends - some I have been assembling into "junk" lots to sell on eBay when I get a chance.  If you have never noticed, I do a lot of reselling, so I inevitably pick up quite of bit of ragtag items.

I've been thinking about doing another give away soon. . .

I'm also passing some old RPG books. The listing of what I currently can be found here:

Pass It On (The Wraith)

Sorry from posting about another message board, but I want people to have an equal opprotunity.

Thanx!

I'd be interested in that Dragon 148 if it's still around. Even without the insert.

thanks.
