(META) postgame thoughts

I just stumbled upon the following quote from Elan, after playing a "Go Game" written by Jane. It's from her paper, "A real little game", on her website.

Elan Lee wrote:

"I found that I had a lot of really good memories about the place, a lot of knowing what's down corners that I wouldn't otherwise know what's down, stories to tell people I brought there. I didn't expect that sense of intimacy." But the game had left him with more than memories. "It was the sort of experience where when I went back, the whole time I half expected crazy groups of people to be dashing about madly, even though I knew the game was gone," he said. "It haunts your experience of the place, you feel more comfortable with the space, like you could do anything there. " For Lee, the neighborhood was transformed by the game. "I know it better, I have lived here, it is mine, I know it better than you do, I can make it come to life, I can make anything happen here."

That certainly strikes a chord with me. Every day I walk past at least one of the Berkeley Axons and I'm a little on edge. Today, just after I passed one, a lady was talking to her toddler son, and called him Aiden. My breath cought just a little.

This game has been quite an experience--intimate indeed. And it will stay with me for a long time, I think.

No amount of thanks is enough for these PMs.
