Think outside the shrinkwrap.My niche as an abstract game designer is an architecture first approach. A set of rules has a beauty all its own, independent of the gameplay. Go, Reversi, Hex, and Y inspired me initially, without ever having played any of them. Like those games, my games are based on pure, simple, essential mechanisms - more discovery than invention. They aren't arbitrary or hodgepodge. I also try to make my games as unique as possible - different from what I've already done, and different from what's out there. I don't do "with a twist" games.
Other designers, some very successful, do it differently. They start with a concept, playtest it extensively, tweak it, playtest it again, tweak it again... until they arrive at gameplay which meets their high standards. I couldn't do that even if I wanted to. I'm a decidedly below average player of games, and I'm not one to judge quality of play. I do playtest my games to make sure they don't have any robustness issues, but I can never really be sure until talented players get ahold of them and try to wring them out. Generally, the simpler a game is, the more vulnerable it is to problems. There was speculation that Dodo would quickly fall, but it's still standing strong.
Luckily, a small percentage of my games turned out to be pretty good in spite of my modus operandi.
My journey at BGA. I am not a programmer. I saw that there were tutorials and I thought, How hard can it be? Little did I know. I designed Gopher as a super simple game to make my first programming project easy. It wasn't. My strategy was to copy the Reversi program and swap out the graphics and game logic. My program was a total kludge and it took a lot of work by Sunil Patel to make it functional. He was a fan of my game, Flume, which he had programmed for his own fledgling game site, and he took me under his wing. He disappeared after Gopher, but then Tisaac stepped in and helped me quite a lot on various game programs. He wasn't writing my programs for me but he always told me just what I need to know to get back on track. Tisaac really helped me get a toehold at BGA. UFM deserves mention for his help with the pie rule and player panel which I've used in many programs since. Eventually I would get through a few programs without needing any help. But then I got stuck on Cephalopod and VictoriaLa came to the rescue.
The developers are overall a stellar bunch of guys (and girls). To those who helped, reluctantly or otherwise, I say Thank you. It was noble of you to take time away from your own projects to help a doddering old amateur develop a game program that would be lucky to get .01% of the playership.
The admins here are awesome. Most have personally thanked me for my contributions. Pleasant admins are the exception to the rule. At most game sites the admins are dimwits who take pleasure in lording over the designers.
To me, designers are the apex predators. Selectors (developers) play an important role but are decidedly lower in the food chain. In my case, I wear a designer hat with a little developer feather in the band. My specialty, the naturally finite (no superko etc.), decisive abstract, is the highest form of a game.
Other designers I admire include Michael Amundsen and Alek Erickson. I view Michael as the current torch bearer in this thin sliver of the design universe we've found ourselves in. Alek has collaborated with Michael on many designs. I like Christian Freeling. He's been around for a long time designing Chess and Checkers variants.
There aren't many shrink-wrapped games I like. Azul for example, popular though it is, totally misses me.
I've lived in Mongolia since March 2019. I lived in California for 20 years before moving here.

I love board games since childhood. And since school, we have a weekly board game evening going, since about 10 years even with web based result protocol. When Covid changed the world, it also changed our boardgaming and we discovered BGA, which is since then our weekly gaming place. Besides that, also my family likes to play board games, in real and on BGA, so I'm quite happy about it! And being a software engineer, it gave me the chance to publish a game myself: https://boardgamearena.com/gamepanel?game=baolakiswahili
