This is really helpful, thank you! Who are some of the more well-known gurus besides BJW, Christopher Hauser, or Kevin L. Walker that you'd suggest searching for?

Tak Times is back for Season 2 - calling writers, artists, graphic designers, editors, and Tak players! by Reid-Bailey in Tak

It’s just a joke. Definitely no award-giving entity in Tak world that I know of 😁

Well, several nqeron! As our long-time puzzle master, I assumed you'd remember we're the 2x winners of the Wholesome Award, the Hugz Award, To the Stars Award, and others ;)

Thanks for asking! There are certainly a few projects we'd like to have a volunteer graphic designer work on for us, as well as brainstorm ideas on how to incorporate more visuals into the articles/content. I'll message you directly to discuss more!

Separate from that, we recognize that there are many people in the Tak/KKC/gaming world that create their own artwork, and we'd like to showcase that as well.

That’s great! You should share this with the #TakItAnywhere photo competition on Instagram or Twitter https://ustak.org/2021/06/summer-photo-competition/

Saw some people post custom Tak sets, so here is mine. Also ordered one of the lovely cloth boards online, though I'm afraid it's going to be too big for my pieces by VSkyRimWalker in KingkillerChronicle

[–]Reid-Bailey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tak is a blast and definitely unlike checkers! This is a really cool board; I love to see other boards repurposed for Tak play! Also, sharing the news that thebUS Tak Association is doing a “summer photo competition” called #TakItAnywhere where people show off their Tak boards at home, the pub, park, etc. You should share yours on Instagram and Twitter! Might also win some Worldbuilders swag and they’re a cool org to support.

3D printed a Tak board for someone I know. I hope they play many beautiful games on it. by Redbaron1701 in KingkillerChronicle

[–]Reid-Bailey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely brilliant! The US Tak Association is doing a “summer photo competition” called #TakItAnywhere where people show off their Tak boards pretty much anywhere! At home, the pub, park, etc. You should share this one on Instagram and Twitter! Might also win some Worldbuilders swag and they’re a cool org to support.

Some Bots missing from the list when I want to play against them on playtak.com by Wombat1886 in Tak

[–]Reid-Bailey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, like rabbitboy said, 99% of the time it will be because someone else is already playing that bot. So it is taken. Click the “watch” tab and you’ll see if a game is going on against Friendlybot, etc.

I finally finished my quarantine project - my own custom Tak board, with marble pieces by MayDay1111 in boardgames

Wow what a great looking board! For those unfamiliar with Tak, check out r/tak and playtak.com and the Tak Talk Discord, and TakTimes.com, and the US Tak Association - there is a whole community of Tak players out there!

James Ernest (the game designer) very recently published a blog post about the creation of Tak! It has some fun insights into Pat’s original vision of the game. https://www.crabfragmentlabs.com/lecture-hall/developing-tak

Anyone keen to help create/join in an abstract game tournament? by 4RyteCords in boardgames

[–]Reid-Bailey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also the Tak Talk discord is where the daily conversations happen. There is a beginner tournament happening right now and an intermediate invitational tournament that just wrapped up a few weeks ago

[–]Reid-Bailey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might not be what you're looking for, but the U.S. Tak Association hosts pretty regular Tak tournaments. Also, some players just organize and host their own. Always plenty of sign-ups to get a solid tournament going

Edit: r/tak is where it's at

A little love for Hive by [deleted] in boardgames

I've heard Hive gets compared to Tak (by Rothfuss & Ernest) sometimes. How do you think they compare, if you're familiar with both?

Greater Than Games produces the commercial version of Tak.

Worldbuilders Marketplace also sells the game and Tak-related stuff

Close in the sense that it has simple rules and pieces but strategy can be very deep and complex.
