I'm wondering if, in a few years, we're going to see TWs coming in
inspired by Junkyard Wars, which is much the same thing, only it's
techno-imagination-problem solving instead of D&D's
fantasy-imagination-problem solving.

I LOVE that show! And "bodging," as the Brits call it, certainly seems
relevant to TW. And more often than not (as in industry I suspect) it
isn't the best design that wins; it's the one with the best
communication. Idea for an STC Session: Technical Communications Lessons
from Junkyard Wars.
