My market is not the top 100 players in the world. It's the millions of players
would think a cool board game is worth buying.

Bruce Pandolfini thinks it's cool. He and I have chatted on many occasions about
it. Bruce also agreed to be the product spokesperson. He is also very, very
busy, and his monetary requirements are rather high. Unfortunately, members of
the Executive Board do not see things as I do in terms of the importance of
getting Bruce involved 100%, so it is a constant battle to get the votes I need
to solidify his involvement.

What matters is not what Gothic Chess is, but what it is becoming.

How many people who played chaturanga "heard of" the game we call chess today?

0.

Did that stop chess from evolving? No.
