I lived on the island from birth (1965) through 1993 when I moved to NJ.
(technically I lived in eastern Queens, so geographically LI, but municipally
NYC).
I shopped at W2, and at the Compleat Strategist, but didn't game at either, so
I am afraid I don't recognize the individuals you mention, i just fondly
recall shopping there.
I know the strategist still exists in manhattan, though all the other branches
are gone I believe, do you know if Waterloo II still exists.  I may need to
look into both of them again.

when did you live on the island? I lived there all my life until '94. I gamed
with the SGLI at first at Waterloo II (RPG games -- usually C+S run by Rusty,
the BIG red haired guy that ran the counter) and later we rented the top
floor of a bar in Bethpage and finally at Ron Boone's house in Bethpage. I
also
played Napoleonics with Scott at Waterloo in Stony Brook and later at his
condo
in Mineola after they closed the Stony Brook store. The SGLI fragmented into
boardgaming at Ron's house, historical miniatures at Scott's, and RPG gaming
on
the weekends wherever.... I moved to 'Vegas; Scott to Gilbert,AZ and it
seemed a LOT of other people left the island...:-(
