This week I have been dealing with my first personal experience of ableist abuse (so a nice light topic to kick us off...) and been reflecting on how the sort of analytics data we tend to collect from players can benefit testing during development.

This week I'm providing a BBC style "balanced perspective" on last week's rant about people in the industry not appreciating or understanding game quality, and a far less balanced rant about the terrifying results of certain recent elections.

Hi everyone! Apologies for missing last week - you'll see why when you get stuck into this week's issue since we kick-off talking about this year's GAconf and Qualicon events, before going on a little rant about how underappreciated game quality still seems to be.

Hi everyone! This week I discuss what happens when your limitless patiance turns out not to be so limitless and discuss some simple (and some less simple) time saving techniques which can make your game testing more efficient!

And after the Easter break, we're back! This time we're talking about authority and responsibility, both in more general terms and when it comes to our role in game quality.

This week I'm talking about tests. Not like QA tests, but tests for QA... of QA... tests for testing a tester's ability to test. My head hurts. I also discuss the (lack of) special educational support I recieved growing up and briefly touch on some appauling racism (as if there's any other kind).
