This kickstarter is still open. Campaign setting and adventures by L. Gygax. (It's through Gooey Cube so perhaps not exactly old-school). Tribute and satire to E.G.G. Maybe there's a Lady Williams in the mix...

Don't get me wrong, however i feel that we passed the border of ridicolous... this is again an anagram of Gary Gygax in the title to sell an normal megadungeon... the prices of the kickstart are outrageous (40 bucks for a pdf!?!)... i wonder how long people will follow this kind of delirium...

I used the incipit of don't get me wrong as i didn't read anything about this module, it is possibly the best module ever written, but the mere fact it plays with EGG name in the title it has the effect to me to stay away from it... it is a kind of 'repellant'... i wish i will be wrong, but only time and facts will establish whether my prejudice is right or wrong...

Sadly, the Gygax name has been besmerched by the behaviours and misdeeds of various persons over the years.
I'll wait for the inevitable leak of the PDF by one of the staff members or their agents or clients.
It always happens, and usually within a couple of weeks.

This week I've been mostly eating . . . The white ones with the little red flecks in them.

If you want an authentic megadungeon, The Tower of Mrannor is rather cheaper!

Good points all. Alas, one could argue the last forty years has been besmirching, so I'm somewhat philosophical in supporting the besmirched do the alleged besmirching.
