Believe me, I've been waiting for the trelease of these games. I'm
certain I can test drive these games until we're sick of them. Or
something resembling a plague, at least.

Welcome, Greg.
You've arrived just in time for the Winter 2008 Icehouse Game Design
Contest:
http://icehousegames.org/wiki/index.php?title=Icehouse_Game_Design_Competition
You should be able to test drive *all* the games entered, since the
design restriction this time out is 2HOUSE!
Entries will be announced (here and elsewhere) around December 22,
followed by a month or so of judging, with winners announced in early
February.
It's a good time to be an Icehouse fan!
Welcome to the insanity - now I'm going for pizza . . .

Subject: [Icehouse] Another addict enters the house
Graveyard Greg here. I've been a long time admirer of the Icehouse
pyramids but always balked at the price. I believe at the time it was
the uber set that cost around 40 dollars.
Years later, I'm at a con and a bunch of people are playing Zendo,
though I did not know the game's name at the time, but I also
noticed...the packaging! What was this Treehouse? Further
investigation revealed it was a new game and a new packaging. Simply
priced, at 10 dollars for 15 pyramids. Plus there was a vendor selling
them.
One treehouse stash later, and it's a hit. I go home from the con, and
my friends love the game.
Fast forward to the recent week. I now own three Treehouse stashes,
the 3HOUSE rules, and the Martian Coasters. I will soon be owning two
*more* stashes so we can play Zendo and perhaps the first game I saw,
said game being Zarcana, now known as Gnostica. Though I might just be
a Zarcana supporter, but we'll see.
So where's the pizza stashed in this house? I'm hungry!
