As some of you may know, I'm getting married very soon! We had to get boardgames involved, so here are the name setting/ placemats/ things. A work in progress :)

This is your updated PSA on David Leavitt, his latest nonsense, and how you can avoid falling for it. Yes, he recently made a bunch of reckless claims about me, but I'm fine. Perhaps we can help make sure others don't fall for it.

Hello!
We'd like to reunite this card with Samantha. It was inside a Disney Scene It which sold in the Bring & Buy, and the buyer has given it to us.
If you are still at the convention, head to the Bring & Buy and ask for John L. If you have already left, get in touch.

Breakfast of champions. See you soon, @TabletopScot !

For a show positioning itself as the industry's news source when much of similar industries are unionisation, this is extra shameful.

Hey boardgames twitter, which Marvel Unmatched would you recommend/ has the more interesting characters?
Am looking at Redemption Row vs Hell's Kitchen, and it's a tough choice!
We have Cobble & Fog, but no other Unmatched.
Why play other cards in Multiple Snap when you could just Multiple Man
Multiple Man Multiple Man, Multiple Man?

If you're on mastodon, give me a shout as I'm a bit lost by the whole thing:

Early morning fizzy drinks and a Giant Brain reunion. Good to game with @thegiantbrain and @UnMech again.
My first boardgame convention in years: hopefully going to @TabletopScot in ten days or so! If you're about & fancy a chat, send me a message; would be lovely to catch up with people :)
Gambling hall! My favourite card in Oath

Some folks have been asking why i keep mentioning birds is @FSC_IC certified and why I'm so proud of it. It's not just about the trees (but the trees are a big part of it). An FSC on the box means everyone involved with touching the wood from FSC forests is lived a payable wage.

You know one thing I LOVE about making games on greetings cards?
The cards are made of a recycled/FSC mix. The cello wrapper is biodegradable. They’re printed in the same country as me, and delivered by an electric van.
It’s not the complete answer, but it really does all help.
