I think that one of the geekiest things about the Looney labs games is the way people find out about them. Either you see them in a FLGS (Friendly Local Game Store) that often carries other geek staples like D&D, Magic and stuff like that - or you hear about them more often than not on the internet or at gaming conventions. It's not often you would hear from someone "hey I was out at Toys R Us and I found this great new game called Fluxx" - just doesn't happen. I've also seen them for sale at comic conventions, Ren Faires - anywhere that geeks congregate. The whole homegrown nature of what you have done with the game and your business really appeals to the "Make" culture of doing things for yourself. Open sourcing things - making your development of new games open to beta testers....These are all geek things.... --*Rob On 2/2/07, Kristin Looney <kristin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
