alt Hacker News> Friedmann’s infatuation with the game had continued after he moved to Nashville, becoming so intense that his psychologist stipulated in the terms of his parole that, along with being kept from weapons, he be prevented from playing fantasy games such as D. & D.
Now that's ... that's weird.

Should have banned him from playing Top Secret.
To be fair, he sounds a little more intense than your average player:
"A psychologist concluded that Friedmann suffered from dysthymia, today known as persistent depressive disorder, and schizoid personality disorder, writing that he showed “indifference to social relationships and a restricted range of emotional experience and expression.” He also had a tendency to “blur fantasy with reality.”
Friedmann was convicted of armed robbery and attempted murder"
