JUDGE'S SPOTLIGHT FULL ACCEPTANCE SPEECH

Righteous Blood, Ruthless Blades won a Judge's Spotlight Award at the Ennies last night. While neither of us were present at Gen Con, we were able to send in video messages as our acceptance speech. They were combined into one video but a bunch of thanks were cut out for time. Here is the full speech that I submitted:  



It was great to see the game get this recognition. We are both very proud of the final result.

REMEMBERING BILL


This is the anniversary of William H. Butler's death, co-founder of Bedrock Games, who passed away September 3, 2014. This year, I decided to speak off-the-cuff about Bill in a podcast recording. I talk about how it so hard to believe this much time has gone by, Bill's personality, his importance in our design, and other things. I also talk about why our partnership worked (RPG partnerships are notorious for going down in flames); how I learned a lot working with Bill about achieving the right balance when you are working with another person creatively. He is still greatly missed.
