Perhaps causatively, perhaps coincidentally, the next part of the talk was about how The Go Game steered away from "Mensa-type challenges" towards activities that 90% or more of teams could complete.

It sounds like lately the founders have had to concentrate more on the business-y aspects, and entrusted the gamerunner-employees with the Game-y aspects. It's a new set of challenges—turning the business into an employee-friendly place.
Not much turnout this evening, maybe 25 folks; I think a lot of folks watched the potentially-but-as-it-turns-out-not last game of the World Series instead.
