Hi Guys - I put together a header for the TMP front page that commemorates people from our hobby who have passed. It runs on Dec. 31st. It usually is for noteworthy figures, but as of last year, I also put in gamers who died as well – as suggested by you. I'm going to post this in a few places on TMP to make sure everyone has a chance to see this. I have 10 days, so get your suggestions in sooner than later, please! I need suggestions/reminders of gaming industry figures who passed. Birth and death dates, if you please. If you have pictures – or can provide a link to a good one, please do so. Also, let me know what they did for the hobby. Secondly, if you had a gaming friend who passed, I need birth and death dates and I REALLY need you to get me a picture. Post your suggestions here. If you need to email me a picture, you can PM me (ask Bill if you're not a Supporting Member) or email me at WiattheOdd at aol dot com and we'll work it out. Thanks!
