W00t! Worth the wait! Thanks, Dave! Thanks also to my game design
group EGGS and my regular game night Seattle Cosmic for playtesting,
and my beautiful and talented wife Marty for editing.

Some of the other designers showed me their games privately, and yes,
there was some stiff competition. I'm looking forward to seeing all 17
up on the Big Board at Piecepack.org.

Dave, if you have any other feedback beyond what you've given, I would
like it after you return from GenCon.

For the part of the prize that's a fabulous Mesomorph product, I
select the game system Tapestry, by the Brothers Schoessow. I plan to
write about it in my next book.
