Successful round of GIPF last night with PhatCat.
Played ZERTZ today with waifu. Crazy fun.
I'm planning on DIYing some of the Gipf project games because the
games are very simple but would end up being at least $50 a pop if I
wanted to import them to Indonesia. Based on this charming story, I
think the game dev would approve:

My "bright idea" is to use plastic bottle caps as pieces. I already
have 18 black bottle caps and 18 of various colors to serve as a base
set for Gipf. Turn all the bottle caps upside down and add another,
now there's a Zertz set. (just add marbles or other tokens)
Manufacturing a Yinsh set would take a bit more work but I got ideas.
too bad I don't know anyone locally with a 3D printer because that could
produce some really solid pieces but DIY with random odds and ends can add
a lot of character to games. Googling (gipf project game) + diy shows a lot
of crafty ingenuity.
