@ianzang.bsky.social is a (happy swear) TREASURE to our tabletop game community. An hour-long conversation with him yesterday got me unstuck on 2 aspects of a design I’ve been pummeling for 15 years.

Had an enlightening discussion today with fellow tabletop designer about co-op games. I tend not to enjoy playing them but I understand and appreciate their appeal to others.
I feel strongly that I’m an otrovert, a newly identified/defined personality type. NOT antisocial; but not a joiner.

Democrat Sen. Mark Kelly to Stephen Miller: “I got shot at serving our country in combat, and I was there when your boss sent a violent mob to attack the Capitol. I know the difference between defending our Constitution and an insurrection, even if you don’t.”

Some insight into my game design process. This is a page from my game design notebook, dated 2018, JUL 15. About 80% of this initial brain dump became part of the game, “3 Witches”

Not a fan of Edison, but I saw that he posted this sign around his factory.
I've had to visit LinkedIn a few times during the past week. 95% of the posts are either generated by AI or are extolling its virtues.

I spend much of my attention on games.
I know their importance to us as humans.
And I am aware of their insignificance as well.
I simply cannot imagine any game, including any sport, that is intrinsically more important than the rights and dignities of the individual people who would play them.

After moving to penny-free Canada, I found that I missed having a cheap, durable coin for board game prototyping.

My woke takes.
Tax all private golf courses. (You'd be DISGUSTED to discover the breaks they get)
Convert the US to metric.
Make lawns a point a shame.
Allow victims of guns and tobacco to sue the manufacturers.
Deeply restrict the powers of the President. (I.e., abolish executive orders)

Abolish daylight savings.
Mandatory sidewalk continuity.
Every bus stop should have a dedicated pickup lane and adequate protected seating.
Divert % of a city's pro sports revenue to their libraries, museums, and parks.
Deduct state lotto jackpots from billionaire accounts.

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

There will be copies of "3 Witches" for sale at PAXU, but not A LOT of them. I don't know whether they'll be released incrementally over the 4 days or all at the start. If you want a copy before they're generally available in December, may plan accordingly.
