Unless a unique symbol was created for the site, Uba's suggestion of TWBG would be best. Especially black letters with a red G that matches the chosen shade here.
As for symbols, that would be a large order of semiotic work. Semiotics is always a lot of work anyways, at least to create a good symbol, and abstracting "There will be Games" into an effective mnemonic symbol won't be easy.

So, the favicon red isn't the same as the "GAMES" red (but why, Uba, why...). I used the "GAMES" color here as it's a little darker.
Here I tried to get somewhere in between the favicon and the words logo, and had to do some creative squashing of letters
This is a straight-ahead 4-letters like Uba/ColorCrayons proposed.
Oh, the attachment view gets scaled up to reach a minimum size and gets blurry. Ignore them.

Agreed.
Except it's a game site, so it's entirely appropriate to game the user modded system.
Post the microbadges in the approval thread, then post a link of the poll to other threads and site that want what you made.
You now have approval since you merely need the majority of votes to say "yea".

That's pretty much how I felt too. It sorta works in its own weird way.
Yeah, I don't know how much I want to actually go play the BGG game there. Like, there are ten thousand shitty microbadges and now I have to convince some self-appointed noble that mine is better than the median? That's why I came here!
Really, I did them for laughs first, TWBG second, BGG a distant third. Anyone who wants to try to storm the gates there has my blessing.

Anything we can do to help? I don't know how they handle these.
