Presumably all while having said chair tied to my back. Thank goodness I can tolerate a little petty unfairness. :)

Facebook is where I dump updates about content and then pretty much ignore anything else, because a fellow can only look at so many cat pictures in one day and I can't seem to find the 'No BS' setting. Twitter is where I go to interact, but it lacks organizational elements, like setting up...

Look, if you are ever going to get anything accomplished around here, you really MUST stop being so reasonable about things. I find it unfair that the guy who runs this site is being levelheaded. Also, I demand cookies. And warm socks. :)

This is sort of along the lines of coming to my house and telling me that my favorite chair is unfairly making me too comfortable.

Not much on the board game side, even with GAMA.

Ok, given the response so far, I'll start including a bit more of that info. If I see heavier demand here I'll consider doing it on a daily basis.

Not just for me. You sell yourself a bit short. How often have you sat down to a game or a movie or a book or whatever and said, "Hey, wouldn't it be cool if..." That is really all it takes. Sure, I might be able to 'Wouldn't it be cool' more rapidly than some (which I doubt) but we all do...

You are correct. An organized and focused playtest, against a predetermined goal with particular objectives in mind is the way to go. Just slapping it down on the table and saying "Here. Play this." isn't going to do you any favors. You'll never discover, for instance, that in phase 5 of turn...

Here is the problem with game design: It is ridiculously easy to come up with an idea for a game, but also, monstrously hard to figure out how to implement that idea. This is made only more complicated if you want your game to be fun for anyone besides you. I was recently asked to come up...

As the provider of Board Game News for the front page, I wanted to check to see if anyone was interested in miniature news. In particular, I get lots of news across my desk that deals with what I am going to cal 'Spare Part' companies. Manufacturer's who provide, say, different kinds of hats...

That can't possibly be right. Morrus wouldn't do THAT, would he? Oh, dear. Edit: Oh dear God. You're right.

There is much anger over this. I use Google Reader almost constantly for keeping track of things. Any replacement should have as near to the same functionality - if not better - than Reader currently does. Your suggested replacement does no good if it limits it's "free" version to a specific...

I refuse to participate in your badge sche.... ooo, look.

One other thing I haven't considered, because I haven't played it, is the new Mongoose license of Star Fleet Battles, A Call To Arms: Star Fleet. I'm told it runs smoother, but, as I have mentioned elsewhere, I don't particularly care for the minis that are part of the line.

I haven't played Eclipse yet, either. I hear good things about it, but I have yet to even see it on the shelf of my FLGS. I'd love to have included Race for the Galaxy and, if I were doing a completely unique list of my own, would probably have included it. As you see though, the original...

Last week, io9.com posted a list of the 10 Greatest Science Fiction Games of All Time. We like lists, on the internet at least. They're easy to assemble, quick to read and, more often than not, very hit friendly. They drag eyeballs to a page because people want to see what you think the best...

They just keep going: http://www.icv2.com/articles/news/25083.html

A week ago, I was perfectly willing to open with a discussion of Games Workshop, copyright/ trademark law and the difficulty of claiming to own words and concepts that have existed for at least 50 years prior to your sudden decision not to let anyone else use them. That was a week ago. I'm...

The sheath sounds interesting...
