I was playing AD&D when I was in elementary school. My friends were four years older than me. I still have my basic set from 1979. There were not many supplements available back then. Before that we played Micro games like Melee, Ogre, and Sticks and Stones. I had quit playing by the ninth grade, but some friends in college talked me into playing again briefly. By then we mostly got drunk and played for a couple of days until we collapsed. It was fun.

I haven't gamed since then. I did pick up a rpg game in the last five years on eBay called Pain Doctors. This was just out of curiosity.

Dr. Bantham and I used to get into bidding wars back in the day over stuff like this and early Ligotti material.
