Apparently he rolled a save of 1. (If you get it, and you've already heard this, you're probably groaning.)

Gary Gygax, co-creator of Dungeons and Dragons, died on Tuesday. If, like me, you weren't around in the 80s when D&D was one of the biggest fads on the planet, you've probably never heard of him, and if you're neither a fan nor one of those "D&D=Satanism" freaks, you probably think it only matters to antisocial geeks. You'd be wrong.

Freehostia's security certificate is back to normal. Since today's strip is up really late, tomorrow's will be up around noon PT, Saturday's will be up as early in the morning as possible, and Sunday's will be back to being up at 11 PM PT.

Expect delays when reading comicked strips

The next strip will not be up until sometime in the morning, possibly as late as 11 AM PT, though more likely no later than 8. This is because Freehostia's security certificate has a problem, and while I ignored it long enough to get a strip up last night, I don't want to risk it causing any real problems.

UPDATE 12:24 PM PT: The new strip is finally up, though Freehostia is not back to normal (though it may just be IE7's cache). Tomorrow's strip will go up no earlier than 8 AM PT, and strips will continue to go up at around noon PT until Freehostia is back to normal. If it's not back to normal by one week from today, I'm going to be seriously considering dumping Freehostia.
