What of the 3 types of board game psychographics are you? We liberally borrow from the MTG terms (from Mark Rosewater) of Timmy, Johnny, and Spike, then place them into a board game framework. So, we have to factor in types of board gaming like solo board gaming all the way to large group gaming like Social deduction. Also, how do genres of games like area controls fit into this discussion? Or perhaps popular board game youtubers like Dice Tower's Tom Vasel and Shut up and sit down from 2015?

Games mentioned: Patchwork, Twilight Imperium, Risk, Risk Legacy, Wingspan, Cosmic Encounter, Sherlock Holmes: Consulting Detective, Arkham Horror LCG, Vantage, Ark Nova, Le Havre, Star Wars Rebellion, Brass Birmingham, Incan Gold
