Could that be the result of Eric Martin's departure from BGG (maybe missing a publisher or two)?

"I denied your ad request on BGG because I spend my free time curing demonic possession, and also I think you shouldn't publish your game which I think you made in ignorance of the real depravity of Satan and his works" is a fucking insane thing to write in an email www.reddit.com/r/boardgames...

Sickening behavior by this agent. The fact that Mayor Adams has rolled out the red carpet for ICE is a stain on our city.

Long-running French board game publisher Ludonaute is calling time on creating new games at the end of 2025, saying the hobby's huge expansion in recent years had seen passion within the industry leech away in favour of economic decision-making: boardgamewire.com/index.php/20...
Four people with green bamboo behind them act playfully for the camera. One sticks their tongue out, another makes bunny ears behind a third's head. The team from French board game publisher Ludonaute. An illustrationg of an old, black steam from the US train chugs towards the viewer, with various robbers aboard holding guns.

We stand with trans and non-binary people, and any association with JK Rowling and her campaign of harm and exclusion is a threat to them. Thus, unless and until CGE changes its policies, we will cease any and all coverage of CGE products going forward.

During Gen Con, I will have 250 of these zines with me. The goal is to inform normies about what’s going on with CGE and a call to action to join the blacklist. No buying, pitching, or covering CGE games until they give the community a proper apology and response on how they plan to make good. 🎲✂️

Reviewers including No Pun Included and Shut Up & Sit Down are boycotting Codenames publisher CGE for releasing a new Harry Potter-themed game while ignoring JK Rowling’s anti-trans rhetoric: boardgamewire.com/index.php/20...
A blue box to the left with four sillhouette-style humans, each notably wearing wizard-like robes from the Harry Potter universe. The box says Codenames and Back to Hogwarts on it, with Harry Potter in golden letters at the bottom.

For the past 6 months CGE has been a sponsor of The Cabal and it's been great. I love their games and the people I've worked with have been awesome but in light of their recent bullshit, I can't in good conscience continue our relationship and chose not to renew our contract.

JKR is funding life-destroying legislation. When you license HP and put it on your product, the money you pay to do that is literally ruining lives. This isn't ambiguous, it is direct, measurable harm. I will never give a penny to a company who chooses money over the lives of my friends.

Instead of CUTTING Social Security benefits, Congress should INCREASE payments by $200 per month and extend the solvency of the Social Security program by 75 YEARS. How? Make the wealthiest Americans pay a fairer share. I’ve got a bill to get it done.
