Eric,

Thanks for your desire to help.  Don't let the lack of opponents stop
you: it is quite possible to play games solo, where you play each
person's turn from his point of view, for most games.  You can rather
quickly weed out the weaker ones, and know which ones are the better
ones you'd like to share with your friends.

It probably wouldn't be a good idea to share poor games with friends,
unless you explained that it's part of an effort to judge the quality
of fan-designed games, so that they'd understand that a poor design
doesn't reflect on the quality of pyramid games in general.
