The game "It's a Weird, Weird Galaxy!" by Jim Adams, one of the games in Mesomorph Games Contest 1, is now available for download from the Piecepack Wiki: ...

The Good Portsmanship contest deadline is Sunday, 3 December 2006, 11:59:59 PM Pacific Time. That's roughly 4 1/2 hours away as I write this. Get those entries...
Hello all, Ron, now that the deadline of the contest has passed, are you planning on releasing any "harmless" information to the public? Things like number of...
Hi Jorge, Meredith is still collating information, so I don't have much yet myself. Maybe later today. I gather there were about 11 entries, not bad...
Let's have some applause for Meredith "The Eradicator" Hale, the contest administrator. I've been running her raggedy. She's got midterm projects due this week...
Piecepack Croquet - based on Croquet <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Croquet> I hope this one is sufficiently different then my "Tabletop Croquet" Mark -- Mark...
Those seem to be really interesting games. I can't wait to play them :D I did send a non competing entry to the contest, and Meredith did confirm it had...
Yeah, I meant to say that Meredith told me we had a third noncompeting entry, but that the author would be uploading it to the wiki. Is that you, Jorge, or do...
I don't think so... I sent it to her. But I can upload it to the wiki too if you want... :) Or send it again.... +----- ... +---------- ... +-----------------...
Heh, considering Zendo is for most intents and purposes a port of Eleusis, which is played with a deck of cards, if Piecepack Cooking uses the Playing Cards...
Didn't think of that... :) It can use the cars expansion, but it is not necessary. But piecepack pieces are easier to make into nice looking structures than...
For easier reference, information on all 13 entries (including Jorge's) can be found here: http://www.ludism.org/ppwiki/GoodPortsmanship Ron, Port Authority ...
... Wow, Ron, that's pretty cool! I can hardly wait to try some of these. Do you plan to post copies of the "anonymized" contest entries there, or will that...
... I'd _like_ to make them available, but I don't want to be swayed by discussion on the mailing list about which games are good (especially by the people who...
I like the idea :) Since this is a Yahoo group, most people here should have a Yahoo account, so Yahoo Messenger would be a logical option although I don't use...
CDR ... RHE ... First impressions can be deceiving, but I'm sure you and your play test group will be as fair as possible in your assessment of the entries. My...
The Gloom cards do look nice. But wouldn't the opaque part of the front side be a little obtrusive when using the back of the tiles as a board? And vice-versa?...
... You could make the opaque parts white on the back so that the black lines on the back of the tile would stand out against them. I don't think the lines on...
New contest: Meredith was going to process some new games for me to playtest at Seattle Cosmic Game Night this Saturday, but during the first half of the week,...
I have long thought that a clear piecepack set would be great - I want to make one myself, but am struggling here in the UK finding clear pieces. Alas no TAP...
I'm new to the piecepack scene, so I don't know and I have to ask. Are there very many games that depend upon the 'underside' of the component being hidden...
A few days ago, in a local bookstore, I happened across a transparent deck of cards that _also_ glowed in the dark. I had to buy it because of this thread, and...
Hi Geoff, Welcome to the piecepack community. :) Lots of piecepack games depend on hidden information. I would guess that if you only had a completely...
Happy holidays, everyone. Has anyone played (or even looked at) Tile 13? I realise that one reason I haven't heard any session reports yet may be that it...
