So, I was running late with some holiday errands and our lunch meeting was somewhat shorter. We didn’t talk at all about The Hobbit, but I’m sure we will. At length. (Around 50% of my fantasy gaming characters are dwarven, and I think I can forgive Peter Jackson for allowing Gimli to be a punchline … Read more

You folks out there might notice that I start a lot of these Monday Lunch Meeting Notes by mentioning that Eddy and I talked about this show, or this book, or this game or movie, etc.  That’s because we like to compare notes as to what we enjoyed in the previous week- you have to … Read more

Not much in the way of cultural reference in our talk today- mostly talking approval processes and schedules. Did go over a bit on the #1reasonwhy commentaries on Twitter and elsewhere as both Eddy and I have very strong opinions on the importance and value of women game designers and other creators. One of the … Read more

Wow- where did November go? So Eddy and I caught up on the holiday, some positive infrastructure evolution at CCP USA, and only a little talk about Rise of the Guardians, which I was hesitant to see based on reviews and then enjoyed when dragged there by my kids.

Thanks, Sandy- it was great. I’ll call you. Really. So, a week ago I mentioned I might lose power and be out of touch for a few days. Turned into almost a week. I had no internet access for most of that time and even my phone data wasn’t really working right until Friday. So … Read more

So, Frankenstorm is here and kind of just raining right now, but we already got the call from the power company to expect loss of power for days into the end of the week. Crappy if that’s the case, but we’ll see. meanwhile, Eddy and I met and discussed his medical issues- still dizzy, going … Read more

Trying to reconfigure the current WW Release Schedule, and juggle messaging for our W20 Kickstarter– now entering its last week!– so barely had time to sit down for an hour with Eddy this week. With the help of Mike “The Machine” Chaney on art direction and layout design, a lot of our projects are being … Read more
