Ryan has a bunch of questions about player aids: What are your thoughts on fan-created game aides? Are they table clutter, or do they actually help? Are they better for new players or will veterans also benefit? If you use them, in your experience, which aides or kinds of aides help the most and least? Are there games that you wish had aides, but do not yet? Are there games where you feel they aren't needed? Has a player aide like a rules summary ever replaced a games rulebook for you?
