V-card? If you mean virgin-card, the dude had 6 kids.

You know what? Gary Gygax was a man who deserved everyone's respect. He treated everyone equally, no matter what their age, status, or sexuality. He created a pastime enjoyed across the entire world, revived fantasy as a literary genre, and fostered a community that's existed for over 40 years. If you want to disparage him, that's your prerogative. But World of Warcraft, Final Fantasy and countless other video games, roleplaying games, and books that you've enjoyed would not exist if it were not for him. If you wish to denigrate the man, you may do so; however, you will not do so as a friend of mine.
