Board and Card Games

Beta Q&A site for people who like playing board games, designing board games or modifying the rules of existing board games. Card games, too, because some games really can be classified as both.

So this is basically a Stack Exchange version of boardgamegeek.com? – mmyers Jun 10 '10 at 16:26

Can this site possibly exist without every other answer pointing to boardgamegeek.com? BGG already has a dedicated rules forum for nearly every game in existence, it has a high signal:noise ratio, and many designers and publishers already post there to answer rules questions. What is to be gained by splitting traffic off to here? – jdl Jun 19 '10 at 19:42
