Oh cool! The guy who insisted on deadnaming Jennell Jaquays in his very famous article about her wildly influential dungeon design techniques, for years after both her public coming out and his having been informed, has decided, while she was on her deathbed, to rename the technique discussed in the article after himself, replacing the text of the original article and any of his own references to it online. He presumably discusses the technique in the book of dungeonmaster advice he's just published because his article on her technique was a foundational work in the blog that got him the book deal though who knows if there's any reference to Jaquays there given his apparent need to claim all credit.

Jennell was one of the most influential and foundational designers in the ttrpg hobby and her visibility as a trans woman has been incredibly important to so many of us in the space. Losing her has been a tragic loss for our community and now to have her name spat on like this just as we've lost her is horrific. Grief and Rage.

Nonlinear dungeon design is Jaquaysian or Jaquaysed or at most distant, Thracian. Making a dungeon more non-linear is Jaquaysing it. Let's agree that Xandering is just being an unbearably spineless white man, given the Buffy context and this one.
