Welcome to the staging ground for new communities! Each proposal has a description in the "Descriptions" category and a body of questions and answers in "Incubator Q&A". You can ask questions (and get answers, we hope!) right away, and start new proposals.

If I design a board game, can I list Tabletop Games Codidact as a place to ask any questions? Does this depend on whether the game is free or paid for? Does this depend on whether the game is open...

Remove disclaimer as proposals can still have Meta posts
*Note: I'm aware the community does not exist yet, and is only at proposal stage at present. Please treat the following question as if it were a question on Meta in the finished community.*- ----
- If I design a board game, can I list Tabletop Games Codidact as a place to ask any questions?
- Does this depend on whether the game is free or paid for? Does this depend on whether the game is open or proprietary?
- I imagine there is a difference between saying "Here is a site where you may find people who share your interests" and saying "This is the official support site for this board game".
- My specific situation is that I'm considering releasing a board game which is free and open in the sense that anyone can make and sell boards without needing to apply for a licence or pay royalties, and anyone can release modified versions. As such I'd like players, board makers, and modification designers to be able to ask for help here. I'm interested in where the lines should be drawn in general (if there are any).

Can Tabletop Games Codidact be given as the support site for a board game?
