David,
   This afternoon I began my class of students play testing the 8 games as
well as their evaluation of the games.  My after school game club will be
doing the same activity.  I wanted to get some specifics as to what data you
want back as well as what format you want the data.

Do you want each student to rank the games? (eg.  Tom ranks them 1. Penguin
Soccer 2. Zamboni Wars etc.)
Do you want them to rate each game on a scale? (eg. Sally give Zamboni Wars
a 4 out of 5 and gives Geomancy a 3 out of 5)
Do you want them to just submit a vote for their top game (eg.  Timothy
votes for Penguin Soccer as the best game).

   I am having all the kids take notes on what rules were unclear to them
and questions they might have (this is going to be part of a unit on game
design my class will be doing later this year) as well as specific things
they like/dislike about each game.  If you are interested I can compile some
of the general notes and impressions from the students and give each
designer some feedback from the perspective of a bunch of 13-15 year old
kids learning the game from the rules.

We will be playing the games this week and hopefully will have some
votes/data for you next week.  If that isn't timely enough for you no
worries.  They are enjoying playtesting some brand new games.  If the
designers are interested, even if the votes don't count, I can share the
notes with them.  In total I should have between 20-35 kids playing and
testing the games.

                                              -Ryan
