Favorite games (not
including ours)
Ultra-Customized
Wiz War, Settlers of Catan, Mah Jong,
Scrabble, Family Business.
What makes a good
game
Equal and plentiful
helpings of fun, logic, and fascination.
I have to want to think through games
obsessively in order for me to consider
it one of my personal classics. Plus a
little bit of unadulterated evil. What's
more fun than trying to screw over your
opponent?
Other interests
Comics, Storytelling,
Theatre, Cooking and Eating, hip hop and
folk music. Writing (playwriting, stories,
etc.). Silent Comedy. I've studied Chaplin
and Keaton like a religion and have written
a full-length play about the only movie
they ever made together.
With a million dollars
I would
Learn how to
shoot film and make a silent comedy for
modern times.

Favorite
games (not including ours)
Go, Elfland,
Scattergories, Junta
What makes a good
game
Games where
you can control your fate, yet not have
to pay attention to a million little things
which, if you ignore them for a moment,
destroy you. I like an element of chance.
I love games where barganing and politics
are possible. Playing games 'dirty' is
always a good thing.
Other interests
Pretending
to be creative in the realms of photography,
writing, and painting.
With a million dollars
I would
Get good food and good art.

Electronic Catchphrase
What makes a good
game
Randomness
that can be easily mitigated with a bit
of planning. Little downtime. A way to
interfere with other players' plans without
sacrificing your own.
Other interests
Puzzles, films,
learning to cook.
With a million dollars
I would
Distribute it throughout my community.
