BoardGameGeek is a database of game listings. A couple of employees, including me, create game overview videos, but we don't review prototypes. You can find a list of potential reviewers on Stonemaier Games' website: stonemaiergames.com/our-current-... —WEM

I'm neither a designer of the game nor the publisher — only someone writing about upcoming games. —WEM

Unfortunately, we don't have a dedicated admin for the corrections queue. It balloons up for several months, then we tackle it all at once, which is what we're doing through June. We've already brought the number of corrections in the queue to about 4,000 compared to 5k+ a week ago. —WEM

I've been bulldozing through corrections, and users helpfully point out when we approved two game listings, two version listings, etc. We notify users of such things, but yes, sometimes the notices are less helpful than they could be. Lots of stuff to clear out that's been piling up... —WEM

Many JP games include English & Japanese titles, with the JP title of this game being クソッタレ!! 世紀末モヒカン野郎300匹大行進, which Google translates as "Damn It!! 300 End-of-the-Century Mohawk Guys Marching Together" — which is objectively a more interesting name...although it doesn't match the components. —WEM
