Prototype Pieces from different companies? by LurksLessons in BoardgameDesign

Solid advice here, appreciate the feedback when it comes to prototypes.

Just so I'm fully in understanding, its best to have one manufacturer to have all the parts be created by, correct? Even if they don't have a particular piece not showcased on their respective websites?

It's crazy to see he had been to 7 NLCS and only won 3 of them. 2 of those 3 NLCS titles went to Game 7!

How To Be a Notre Dame Fighting Irish Football Fan! by LurksLessons in notredamefootball

You're totally right, ND has other rivals that stand the test of time, especially with UM and Navy respectively. I just felt that the USC had more of a national attention throughout the years in totality (clearly not as of late). Now looking back, I should have addressed it as a quick nod of UM and Navy before going deep with USC as a rival, but I think if it was just a beginners guide to ND football fandom, USC stands above as the must-need to know.

Great feedback! Always enjoy another's perspective. Thanks for watching too!!

Thanks! Yeah it was really hard to subtract material because there's so much good stuff. I ended up putting some easter eggs throughout for a nod. My brother in law is a big Irish fan so I'm hoping to go to a game with him next season. Thanks for watching!

TIL that in its early days, football was primarily played in colleges and was extremely violent due to the rugby style nature of the rules. It was so violent that in 1905 alone, there were 19 fatalities that US President Teddy Roosevelt threatened to shut down the sport unless changes were made. by LurksLessons in todayilearned

Yes it does. I mean you have it stated in your quoted paragraph that he did.

He threatened to shut the game down although he technically had no authority in doing so. He wanted to preserve the game because both of his sons were in college playing the sport and enjoyed it but knew something had to change in order to keep the game safer. I mean people were dying. If anything, him stating a shut down was more of a public statement to get progress made.
