Which underground communities do you visit (be it games, art, music, etc.)?

Don't feel bad if they don't overlap 100% with this space: as an example I frequently am on intfiction.org, as they are ace and fresh and innovative, even though they yet have to receive the Gospel of Free Software.

Other places I like:

The community I follow most closely is the Abstract Games subforum on Board Game Geek. BGG’s defitinition of abstract games is broad, but the people who hang out in those forums are mostly concerned with two-player combinatorial games. The community is small, but some designers are quite prolific.

Hark, thats cool :). Do you also play them, or is it more some sort of fascination for the topic?

Argh, the painful question! The truth is, playing opportunities are limited. I'm having to come to terms with that, and my second favorite, go, will probably drop out of my games rotation soon. And I don't wanna try different games all the time, especially these games, they ask for some dedication. And my friends are usually more interested in other genres.

So mostly fascination, very little actual playing. =/

I'm afraid thats exactly the barrier I would encounter if I would try to enter these :3. Video games are - while still time demanding - a little bit more accessible.
