A small selection of the Maestro's games. I mean, can you believe this? :o

I wonder if Focus (http://mindsports.nl/index.php/the-pit/focus-529) is still in production somewhere.

Both Martin Medema and I are deeply indebted to Sid's classic abstract. These games were in some way inspired by it: Crossfire (http://mindsports.nl/index.php/the-pit/crossfire-525), Breakthrough (http://mindsports.nl/index.php/the-pit/breakthrough-517), Explocus (http://mindsports.nl/index.php/the-pit/explocus-527), Atlantis (http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/18105/atlantis) and of course the 'old new kid' on the block: Mu (http://mindsports.nl/index.php/arena/mu/).

Is Arimaa now so popular that it is susceptible to spam?
It seems to be the case.

This type of site promotion can be found in almost any games forum. It's easy to recognize and easy to ignore. I don't think Arimaa's popularity is the trigger. Hardly anyone visits RGA for instance, but they're spammed likewise.
