This week I'm providing a BBC style "balanced perspective" on last week's rant about people in the industry not appreciating or understanding game quality, and a far less balanced rant about the terrifying results of certain recent elections.

Hi everyone! Apologies for missing last week - you'll see why when you get stuck into this week's issue since we kick-off talking about this year's GAconf and Qualicon events, before going on a little rant about how underappreciated game quality still seems to be.

Hi everyone! This week I discuss what happens when your limitless patiance turns out not to be so limitless and discuss some simple (and some less simple) time saving techniques which can make your game testing more efficient!

And after the Easter break, we're back! This time we're talking about authority and responsibility, both in more general terms and when it comes to our role in game quality.

This week I'm talking about tests. Not like QA tests, but tests for QA... of QA... tests for testing a tester's ability to test. My head hurts. I also discuss the (lack of) special educational support I recieved growing up and briefly touch on some appauling racism (as if there's any other kind).

This week feels less instructional and more like a bit of a rant... but thos can be fun, too! First up, we're talking intersectionality and why it can be difficult to achieve, then we're casting our minds all the way back to when physical games came with those awesome little instruction booklets.
