Y’all, I got upsold (very willingly, very easily) at UKGE when I saw these tiles in person.
This is my sanding jig, so I can sand these letter tiles nice and smooth (by hand - I wouldn't trust myself with a sander for something as small and fiddly)

Sometimes the tiles spell out ridiculous words. Today I only have "lot stab west" in there 🤷‍♀️

Damn... the 5 pages of additional marketing options in the UKGE booth booking form feel a little on the nose tbh...

It was very exciting meeting my Hopes account manager at UKGE this year.

Having watched some of Sedgewick's journey in chats at UKGE with those Nightfall fellows, for sure I just backed PUNK BORG - A TTRPG About Overthrowing Corporate Overlords on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/sed...

I am once again reminded of UKGE and the Weyland table where if you put together the gunpla at the place, you could take it away with you. Some 40K bro's came along, and put together a model and over the course of about 10 minutes went 'it's pushfit?!' and 'you don't have to paint it but you can?!'

Well, this chunky beast (all almost 2kg of it) arrived today. I like the 50mm GunPla miniatures (I had some from UKGE last year) though I’m not yet sold on the game itself (and while the starter was just over £30, the expansions are closer to £40 - for three models and their cards)

I am sorry we didn’t run into each other! We have to try again at UKGE.
October 25, 2026 at 7:16 AM
Yes, sorry we missed you! It will be much easier at UKGE, as we’ll have our own stand! 🙂
October 25, 2026 at 10:16 AM
Yeah, compared to UKGE this was relatively relaxed!

(if you are at UKGE this year it'd be neat to get a game in & catch up!)

Exactly! I've taught this copy to a bunch of people since getting it at UKGE. The teach is super easy and the game clicks really fast as players start placing blocks. Lovely tactile production too. Hope you enjoy your Playte copy.

We're at MCM London right now and I'm pretty sure in the future we'll go to UKGE instead. TTRPGs are barely there - there's a zone with TTRPG sessions which filled out very quickly, a bunch of people selling dice and other accessories (a lot of it dropshipped or 3D-printed).

Just submitted for a stand at UKGE that’s eight times larger than last year’s. I feel a little sick.

Nah, they're from the British TTRPG scene. I'm sure they're very easy to identify IRL. Find the booth at UKGE where the vendor is forfeiting their $500-1k space before their work is converted to AI by the worthless falsehood of that person's presence

At the heart of it, games companies don't actually need UKGE, but UKGE needs game companies. The kind of toxic, dismissive contempt that they continually show all to clearly will eventually be their downfall.

You may appreciate the naked contempt dripping from this email reply @loremistress93.bsky.social.

Just a reminder to all UK creatives that UKGE does not give a shit about you or your opinions, and the recent AI stuff is more than just a simple mistake.

More disgusting behaviour from UKGE.
These people really don’t give a 💩.

This is utterly disgusting behaviour from UKGE. They have absolutely no care or consideration for their community & this makes their apologies mean nothing.

I will not be continuing to cover ukge on my socials in any form going forward.

Well, what UKGE initially responded was very real...
October 22, 2026 at 1:01 PM
@druggeddwarf.bsky.social seems UKGE is at it again
