Some gratifying news from the outstanding St. Andrews Wildlife Shelter: "'Willsei the Frogmouth': this tawny has been named in honour of Travis Willse from the US, as a thank you for his help with a project, as he is a well known fan of tawny frogmouths."

Honored to have *another* three time world fireknife champion try out my #SivaAfi card game.
In #Numenera, @MonteCookGames makes a case for not having 20 steps of task difficulty. Why, though, do this factor-of-three conversion between difficulty and target number? Why not use a d6? Is it just the TTRPG cachet of the d20?

Me: I think I'll try some Terry Pratchett, perhaps as an audiobook. The hive mind says to start with "Guards! Guards!"
@audible_com: Yes, we have those.
Me: Take my money.
Audible: Not available in your region.
Intriguingly, the only "Portland" entries on @BoardGameGeek are Monopoly clones and one about the WWII ship (which was named after Portland, ME).

This got me thinking...
If you were commissioned to design a CITY NAME board game, what would it be? If you choose one that's already a game, what makes yours different? https://twitter.com/thettexpress/status/1370030824075182080
