Hey Scott, just wanted to say your site looks great. This looks like "theeee" place for Greyhawk stuff. I'll try posting after work tonight.

Thanks Axe, I've been a Greyhawk fan for over 20 years, and have collected a good store of Greyhawk lore that I'm hoping to post here. Scott

Scott, do you have a list (or have you seen a list) of all the references of particular modual settings in Gord books?

Scott, I like the site, especially the Greyhawk stuff and your AD&D rules talk.
In the ENworld threads where everyone is asking EGG what his favorite color is (for the millionth time), I'm always glad to see your posts - because it means that some rule that's been quirky for decades is going to get cleared up.
Is the Mythus/DJ stuff available anywhere or was all of it locked away when Gary settled?

All of the DJ stuff is OOP/unavailable, but the Mythus stuff is pretty easy to find used. Scott

When I read the Gord books (3 anyway) I remember some references to "stuff" (particular dessert ruins, mountain passes, etc.) that I suspected could be locations of dungeons or wilderness adv. presented in OD&D modules. However, at the time, I didn't have the modules in question (and many still don't own). My interests in Greyhawk have only recently developed, and I'm curious to see how much EGG interconnected the books with modules (if at all).
Thanks Scott, will go check it out. ;D

Axe, it sounds like the material you are speaking of comes from the Gord book Sea of Death. None of it appeared in any adventure that I know of. From what I remember there were a few small references to other adventures, but nothing major. Who knows what might show up in Castle Zagyg though. Scott

Yes, I think that was it. Oh, did Gygax ever write anything under a pen name? I personaly think he's a great writer, one of the best I've ever read. It seems strange he doesn't try to publish novels etc. unrelated to DND.
Well, it's amazing the cool shit you put together in here. Most of it is totaly new to me....so thanks!

The only pseudonym the EGG used that I am aware of was Garrison Ernst (somebody correct me if I have the spelling wrong). He used it to write a serialized novel in early Dragon magazines called the Gnome Cache, but he never finished the story because he didn’t think it was very good. Scott
