Gaming Guardians is a Keenspot webcomic by Graveyard Greg, started on May 7, 2000. The comic's universe is based on the premise that every game system (be it official or fan-made) exists as a separate alternate universe, alongside the Primary System (portrayed as real life). The premise of the complex storyline is that every NPC in every gaming system is unaware of anything but their own world, subject to the whims of the GMs who run the system(s), until they are informed of the Primary System and what true reality is (or are otherwise informed by one with such knowledge), and thus become PCs, free to do as they wish.
The comic primarily follows the exploits of Graveyard Greg, a bald, oddly-well-built middle-aged man, and EDG, a squat, blue-and-silver robot, with a visor resembling that of the Cylons in Battlestar Galactica, although there is a host of secondary characters (Brahma and Angus, two minotaurs; Radical, a female superhero; for a time, the Scarlet Jester and the Unprodigal, and many others).
Graveyard Greg has requested that it be moved to Keenspot's dormant area, saying "...I can and will give up GG and D&D if the artists can no longer commit. I was tired of playing the artist hunt game for Carpe Diem, I sure as Hell won't play it for any other comic anymore."

Named after a song by the English band Pulp, My Legendary Girlfriend were an indie band from Glasgow, Scotland, who played live and recorded music between 1997 and 2005.
Although most of their live shows were in central Scotland (where they eventually developed a minor cult following), they did make it as far as London in 2002. They shared bills with Dogs Die in Hot Cars, both before and after the latter were signed to V2 Records. Arguably, My Legendary Girlfriend's live high point was playing to 800 people while opening for The Fall in 2004.
They released two 7-inch EPs on the London-based Short Fuse Records, before forming their own label, on which they eventually released four albums, You Can't Hear Me Anyway (2002), Gross Domestic Product (2003), GDP:RMX (2003) and The Wrong End Of A Telescope (2004). Relocation and other commitments caused the band to go their separate ways at the end of that year, reuniting for one final show in Glasgow in October 2005. Support at this gig came from The Owsley Sunshine, The Plimptons and Ives.
