Wow! FF is twelve this year. Happy birthday kiddo! Friedemann began designing games when he was three, to help while away the time whilst rowing on a 25ft schooner. That's rowing with oars, not having constant arguments. When he was six, FF fell overboard and was swallowed by a whale. It was during his sojourn in the belly of the beast that he took up disco music. His most popular game was originally intended to be a crayon rail game, but he thought that there were enough railway games, so he made it into a crayon zombie flesh eaters game instead. There's no word yet on when he plans to leave the whale.

What's your favourite FF game? Don't say Landlord. Don't.

Mmm...Whale Fricassee....Fantastic Fried Fat Feels Fantastic in my Famished Feedbag.

My Favorite Festivity without Fail is Funkenschlag.

Followed by Formidable Foes, Fresh Fresh and Fische Fluppen Frikadellen...Fetishes are Fabulous.

I am eagerly anticipating the new cards that are in the works.

I hope they don't delay the October release. I'd like to see them at GenCon even though
Essen is usually the realease for the games across the pond. One day I will make it over there. It certainly won't be this year. cry

My favorite game, not just my favorite Freidemann Friese game, is Power Grid. I love it.

Happy birthday Friedemann, from one Green Player to another! greentrain coal oil trash nuclear greentrain

I'm also a green player, but I always defer to Friedemann when we play a game together. I'm not sure I actually have a choice.

Happy Birthday, Friedemann!

If i actually played a game with Friedemann Friese I think i'd die of acute starstrickenness and fanboyism.

That happened already. Ask the victims.
