This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

No Dragon Storm. I haven't seen Susan Van Camp at any RPG shows for quite a while now.
Blackmoor grew from a single Castle to include, first, several adjacent Castles (with the forces of Evil lying just off the edge of the world to an entire Northern Province of the Castle and Crusade Society's Great Kingdom.

After Mark died her online presence soon after pretty much ended as her own health deteriorated dramatically. I havent heard from Robin Wood either in ages. She was dropping out of art too for similar reasons. Ne-Ne Thomas though as of last check was still active. Some of the others Ive lost track of.

Who the hell is this? They werent trying to sell it were they? That could violate the agreement the SF site has with WOTC.

   Nah; this is a listing of games being run, not items sold. A Google search suggests Infamous Games is just an organization running some old-school games at GenCon--they've got this, a D&D game (probably B/X), and an Adventures in Fantasy game.

Interesting numbers.  Thank you GameDaddy
Any comment I add to forum is from complete boredom.
