Task · part of 6. Prototype and playtest: approval FIRST, then three test cycles
6(c). Do all of that at least twice more
Required Often forgotten
Names requirement 6(b) by number and repeats it. With 6(b) itself that is three full cycles of test, change, retest, and each one needs players.
Notes and warnings
Warning. THIS IS TWO MORE FULL CYCLES, NOT TWO MORE GAMES. Requirement 6(b) is test, compare, fix, change at least one rule, explain why, play again, record the outcome, and 6(c) repeats all of it twice. Together they are three complete test-and-revise cycles, each needing enough people to meet the game's player format. On a troop that meets weekly, this requirement alone is most of a month.
