I'm sure there will be some doofus on the panel saying otherwise.

Rym

The moderator was partially inspired by our "Sports are Games" lecture at PAX. I saw the slides: I think it'll be a good talk.

Andrew

I actually think e-sports matter, but that could be a different matter altogether.

Wait you are on Part one of the board game panels but not the second one?

MATATAT

I didn't realize it had been publicly announce (I guess it was a while ago) but our parent company Turner is trying to hop on the bandwagon with eSports by hosting live tournaments on TBS.

It was kinda cringeworthy how out of touch the people giving the announcement were. Which makes me think the whole thing is likely to crash and burn, but who knows.

I'm glad this got published, Guidebook is useless when searching for Geeknights or either of your names.

Aww, I might miss the beginning of Designing Game Rules due to the MAGOlympics. Is Overly Complicated Board Games going to be silly or serious?

Rym

Overly Complicated will be a little silly, but also serious talk.

I should have video of Designing Game Rules from PAX South sometime in the next few weeks.
