Smoothie time!! And then a board game.

My son and cooked breakfast and watched the final episode of Andor. It’s so good.

Glad to see this opinion is starting to get shared. It’s seems so obvious that wealth should not be consolidated in such few hands. It makes our country weaker.

My favorite version of Wingspan will get released upon the world at GenCon this year. I’m so excited for Elizabeth (and for my parents who will get a copy as a gift).

How do I design my games you ask? This is how…

Letting someone go is always tough, especially if you've been working with them for a long time. I feel for you, even if you're making the right call.

Meaning it's hard to stay quite when someone posts something about the games I've designed or the content I've created. Silience is often the best response.

Good lesson for me. It's a hard one to learn.

Seeing a comment on TikTok reminded me that people seemed to have forgotten that interacting with someone’s content doesn’t mean you’re entitled to a response.

And it goes the other way too, you’re not required to interact with someone just cause they interact with your content.

Understandable. I don’t hold it up as an ideal, but emotionally it makes total sense to me.

Board Game BBQ is a class act. I’ve been very impressed over the years with how focused they are on their community.

Honestly, I don’t think so. It might feel good, but labeling a person as evil is a simplistic way to ignore the complexities of life. It also turns you into the thing you’re fighting against; someone that has lost empathy for a subset of society.

That’s great to hear. How old is your son? And are you playing with any modules?

A fantastic review of a game that’s been making a lot of top 10 lists. Ricky was also the designer of the solo version of Nature and it was a pleasure to work with him.

Thank you for your wonderful work! The Flight banner at GenCon is truly impressive. It pulls a lot of people into the booth.

I somehow missed that Nature is Mike's #3 game of the year! I'm proud our small studio could compete with Asmodee and a LotR license. A big shoutout to the entire team!

This attack is for all the marbles!

An early prototype of the Climate module for Nature. The game just keeps getting better with more cards and systems.

You're the best in the world at one thing; you're my favorite game reviewer. It's not much, but it's something.

btw, there are 8 billion people on this planet.

Par for the course. I need to learn every lesson a bunch of times before it stick. Haha

Nice! I did the opposite last night and decided to open up Twitter for the first time in months. I doom scrolled until 4am.

Deckers is on my list. What’d you think of it?

Should have gone with a hat.

Pride is a sin, whereas the Bible doesn’t mention anything negative about biased reviews.

Doesn’t look slow to me!

I think it’s a people problem AND a game problem. When a friendship is ruined over a game of Diplomacy, is it a people problem or a game problem? It’s both!

As a game designer, I can’t control who plays my games, but I can design games to bring out the best in people.

What was the reason?

That’s how most scam messages start on Twitter start. Exclusive crypto tips or valuable NFTs or access to exclusive sex videos.

(Yes, I’ve been dumb enough to respond more than once)

Their roommate is cute as heck. I’m smitten.

Thanks. It feels good now that we're through the storm. Fingers crossed sales continue to grow.
