The Master of the Revels

Master of the Revels is a title from the Elizabethan theater. He was the official responsible for overseeing the construction of sets, creation and care of the wardrobe, and all the other myriad details of putting on a show. He eventually became a censor of the plays to ensure they were politically and religiously correct.

Running a website about games has much in common with the duties of the Master of the Revels, so this site’s owner and administrator is respectfully borrowing the title from the theater. Besides … it sounds a lot cooler than “owner” or “administrator.”
