I've been away from the ARG community for awhile, so I'm just catching up on all this now. This is sad news indeed; I echo the sentiments of many others when I say that Dave was an inspiration, and his tiresome efforts to the advance the ARG community were a positive light in my life and many others. I mean, what else but a brilliantly-crafted ARG could make somebody go running wide-eyed through an abandoned mental institution by himself?!?

My thoughts and prayers are with Dave's family.

Let's honor his memory by continuing to support and grow this wonderful genre.

Hey all,

Addlepated and I are working on a memorial project for ARGfest this year and we could use your help. We'd like to include some short videos of community members talking about Dave and his games. They don't have to be anything fancy (no special effects necessary). We'll do the editing, but we do ask that you keep the videos to two minutes or less.

The project (with your videos) will be broadcast at ARGfest and will most likely be posted here afterwards so the rest of the community can view it.

If you'd like to participate or have questions, please contact Varin or Addlepated here by private message or in chat.

The deadline is June 20th!

Thanks!

Just a quick reminder to please send in your videos.

I dont have any videos of Dave, but I think someone might have a copy of the DVD from ARGfest New York. Dave was on a panel there I think.

I found my pictures of Dave from the original ARGFest, Las Vegas in 2003. When Chasing the Wish was still ongoing. I sent them to Addlepated last night.

I did not know Dave, but it is clear that this community benefitted from his presence and his ideas. rest in peace

My best friend

I just finished reading 2 books by Dave Szulborski. Just from his writing alone, not to mention the stuff he's produced and contributed to this community, I am in awe of this man.

Some day, I'll find a way to thank the man whose work has changed my life.

Thanks Dave.

Dave's Memory Book Presentation Video at ARGfest

Varin and Addlepated, you both did such a wonderful job with your tribute to Dave. I know it was a labor of love, thank you. Belle I know your memory book will be cherished for many years to come. All three of you are very special.

At ARGfest, there was a moving tribute to Dave Szulborski. About 30 seconds into the video, I heard Tyler's voice shout "Daddy!" and I just about lost it right there.

In case anyone was wondering why on that particular day, I chose to wear sunglasses at the conference - it was because of that moment.

I knew I'd have a hard time holding it together.

What I'd like to know - is that video going to be posted anywhere?
