Q&A: Saturday, June 27 @ 1pm PDT
🕑 Added 2015-06-22 18:45:34 +0000 UTC We're having our Q&A this coming Saturday, June 27, at 1pm PDT! LINK: http://www.spreecast.com/events/patreon-q-a-june-27-1pm-pdt Based on your feedback last month, we made a rule that the Q&A will deal with Extra History questions ONLY - no Extra Credits or game design! It seemed to go very well so we are going to continue that policy in June. We'll have other Q&As that break this mold, but in general, we hope this will be a fun learning and discussion section!Comments

Oh, I didn't mean judge the entries as part of the contest. I hoped you and the rest of the EC crew might get to play my jam entry, as that'd make the project feel really worthwhile. Understandably, there'll probably be a lot of entries, and you're all busy as it is.
Extra History
We will not be judging that, sorry! It's run by the International Game Developers Association game writers' group. They've picked a couple of professional writers to judge the entries, though, so it's still pretty cool.

OK, fair enough. It makes me rather sad, though. I wanted to ask the EC crew if they would be looking at the WAG Game Jam entries, since I really wanted to see what they'd think of my jam entry.
Extra History
When I sent out the anonymous survey, yes, there was a lot of feedback that people were tired of game questions in the history Q&A. Even with that, though, you're correct that people were not being very proactive about history questions, which is why I came prepared with a few audience-directed questions last time and tried to turn the session into more of a discussion section. :)

Do people really dislike the game questions so much? Last time, I didn't see that many history questions in the queue (at least, I recall you having to think up some history topics yourselves due to lack of questions).
