[Online] New column: Why We Game by Richard Tucholka

[John Reiher]

My good friend, Richard Tucholka, wrote a guest column about why people
play RPGs and other games: Why We Game. I first met Richard Tucholka
about 20 years ago at an Order of Liebowitz game night at Oakland
University in Rochester, Michigan. There I really learned the craft of
being a GM under his tutelage.

And there was being part of the crew of the ISCO Santa Barbara,
exploring the different worlds of the Time Bagel, (Which later became
the basis for Fringeworthy.) and being exposed to women gamers. At that
time, the male to female ratio at the Sunday night game at the Order of
Liebowitz was about 3 males to 1 female, unheard of at that time (1977). 

So read his words of wisdom, and hopefully come away a little bit wiser.
