I shared a cab once with Woody Allen, back when he was a regular on Johnny Carson's Tonight Show. I met Keith Richards in Negril, and briefly watched Rita Marley's kids while she went in swimming. One of them was a very young Bob Jr. I had the great pleasure of meeting Michael Manley several times. When I was a college freshman, on a trip to Washington D.C., I got to shake hands with a very old Alexander Kerensky.

I was in the movie, "The Enemy Within" with Forrest Whitaker. I was a trumpet player in the band that is playing when the president gets shot at the US Navy Memorial in DC. Does that make me famous?

We had to duck and cover. I was briliant. I have since moved on to the much more glamorous field of software development

Can I have your autograph?

I once met, and escorted to the recording studio, the wife of the drummer for Richie Blackmore's Rainbow.

Can I have your autograph?

Alas, I could have given it to you this weekend, but somehow I didn't see your booth. Make some good sales?

I'm Ryan Dancey.

I co-created the "Legend of the Five Rings" property, and co-designed the trading card game, which has sold more than 100,000,000 cards to date.

In 1997 I brokered a deal wherein Wizards of the Coast acquired TSR, the makers of Dungeons & Dragons. In 1998, I was named the brand manager for Dungeons & Dragons, and in 2000, I was responsible for leading the team that published the 3rd Edition of D&D. I also wrote the Hero Builder's Guidebook for D&D.

I wrote the Open Gaming License, which is a parallel to the General Public License used for software, enabling people all over the world to use the rules & systems of D&D for their own games, and to make stuff compatible with D&D.

I've appeared on CNN, done interviews for NPR, as well as lots of local media. I have received several ORIGINS Awards (the hobby game industry's counterpart to the Oscars), and a special ENie Award (a fan award similar to the People's Choice awards for games) for my work with Open Gaming.

A Google search for "Ryan Dancey" returns about 9,000 links.

I suspect that I'm far from the most famous person using SB, but I am relatively confident I'm the geekiest!

Wow you are a nerd

One time in New York I thought I spotted Mike Tyson, but alas it wasn't him..........

Hey, is that game still around? In the mid-80's I played D&D enough to have my mother wishing that I'd just go out and drink beer and smoke pot like the other boys. (well not exactly but the general level of acceptance wasn't great at the time).... Great game.

I'm not sure that if I had any past affiliation with "Dungeons & Dragons" that I'd necessarily admit that in public....but thats just me!
