Hallo zusammen, für meinen inzwischen fertiggestellten Prototyp meines Spieles, suche ich noch mehrere Testspielende. Es ist ein kooperatives storybasiertes Aufbaukartenspiel mit Würfeln für 2 Personen :joy: Es geht beim Spiel darum, zwei blühende Sternenreiche aufzubauen und gemeinsame Abenteuer und Aufgaben zu bestreiten. Hierfür habe ich ein eigenes Spielprinzip zusammengestellt und auch eine entsprechend Welt und Story kreiert. Ich möchte vor allem Testen, ob zwei Personen mit dem Regelheft ohne meine ständige Anleitung und Kommentierung spielen können. Wahrscheinlich müssten wir mal über den Mittag mit 2-2.5 Stunden rechnen. Bei Interesse bitte einfach melden.

Nice to see you here @gnz - question: would you be interested in talking to Switch about stepping in as partner on https://dribdat.cc ? There's a couple issues I think they might like to fund: #315 & #325, and it would be great to build on their support for TTN/ONIA with further development of hackathon platforms.
And of course we can as part of this enable login through Switch which would please the academic institutions: I recently received this request from the BFH to look into https://www.switch.ch/edu-id/docs/services/start/
The Eduhub working group, which already runs relevant projects like SWITCHcast (where I've published hackathon results already), would seem to me the first point of contact.
Their SWITCHportfolio project is very relevant and interesting for integrating hackathons into educational programs.

Last spring, a series of online newspaper and magazine articles highlighted the story of the American farmers, who were hacking their tractors using Ukrainian software bought online (Naughton, 2017). After buying tractors from the well-known brand John Deere, the world’s biggest manufacturer of agricultural machinery and products, the farmers were all facing the same problem. They realized that when their machine breaks they are not only legally obliged to call Deere’s customer service centre, which is the only entity entitled to analyse the tractor’s breakdown, but they also became aware that even when the service is slow, inefficient and overpriced, they cannot do much without violating the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (US Copyright Office, 1998). This legislation rules over the way people use a host of digital devices. and amongst other things, legally restrained the farmers from suing the company for loss of profit if the software results in non-performance.
