I wrote about a player conflict that came up in the Czege'n'Bake(r) series I am running at the GGG.

The first conflict of last Friday night's session was a neatly encapsulated moment of two players resolving a difference of opinion about what their Dogs should do next, by using the dice mechanics. At least one of them learnt something about his Dog (and, I suspect, himself as a gamer) in the process.

The game as a whole has been very, very sweet. There have been times when I've jumped for joy. More, anon.
Winning gives birth to hostility.
Losing, one lies down in pain.
The calmed lie down with ease,
having set winning & losing aside.
