I had started a thread on the First Thoughts board and didn't get a lot of feedback. Part of the problem (as explained by one of the people who did give me feedback) is that "Sim"[sup]1[/sup] games are not a popular design around here. However, the only game design forums I know about are here and RPG.net, and I'm just working with the communities of which I know.

I'm not just whinging, though. What I'm wondering is if there are any boards out there that cater more to "Sim" designer perspectives/goals? Between RPG.net and here, I'm getting the impression that I'm the only designer out there who is trying to make the kinds of games that I'm trying to make, though I doubt that is the case.

In short, where's my people at!? :)

[sup]1[/sup] I'm not necessarily subscribing to the Sim label (as doing so usually sparks a GNS debate, which I'm trying to avoid). This is just what was said to me.
