Aside from her game design work, Scheurle is perhaps best known for her campaign against the honoring of Atari co-founder Nolan Bushnell by the Game Developers Conference, wherein she alleged that various women had come to her with stories claiming Bushnell fostered a sexist and misogynistic workplace environment at Atari in the 1970s.

However, when pressed for the names of Bushnell’s accusers, Scheurle refused to provide any names, saying “You don’t understand. I don’t have to prove anything to you and neither do they. It is your job to practice empathy to an experience that might differ from your own.”

Earlier this year, she falsely accused an innocent man of committing vehicular assault against a pair of Black Lives Matter protestors in Seattle, claiming that the incident was an example of “white supremacy and domestic terrorism” despite being presented with evidence to the contrary.

In June, Scheurle garnered widespread criticism after stating that her “worst nightmare” was for men falsely accused of misconduct to have “all the receipts ready to discredit” their accusers.

What a glorious explosion of this piece of filth.

Ask me about my wife's perfect butthole
I've never heard of this person.. the Bushnell stuff was largely about things he himself said in interviews with various outlets, including Playboy lol

What a weird article.

Lady seems like a bitch either way but whatever, she's a total nobody.

Is this a joke? They'll circle the wagons to defend her and work overtime to destroy the lives of anyone who's against them.

Yep, see this thread and the events around it for proof.

It's almost like any other industry out there....
Oh, Hollywood and the music industry has always suffered from sexual harassment claims and sexual exploitation allegations, but the videogame industry is still fairly young, and the number of claims and allegations to come forward in such a short space of time is shocking. #MeToo and #GamerGate uncovered an awful mess.
 


Pretty much this. Some innocent people are guilty. And some guilty people are innocent. Its the only way its ever going to be. Unless we have cameras on everyone.

idk why people take it too far from one side. Amber Heard can be a lying bitch, but how do we know? We dont. She’s one cunning bitch for sure.
 
I could see it in her eyes, all the filth you should despise...She'll die o die alone...
Who knows? I do...The bitch does crave control...Over you, or me...to drown her misery...
Lalalala, lalala...
 
The gaming industry is such a dark, seedy place to work, in all corners of the market. Developers, publishers, journalists…it’s all so corrupt.
Lol, this kind of opinion is such horse shit. It's just HUMANS, especially younger humans that tend to be more sexually active and in relationships. So the game industry tends to look more "Dark AND seedy" but it's just what happens when you put younger people together at a place and then give them this Harry Potter magic spell where they can cancel one another. It's why the entire thing is lame and BS and nobodies business...

This type of movement was for people like Weinstein, which were in such incredulous positions that it is IMPOSSIBLE to take them down alone, you needed a unity of people to get those abusers out of power. But now people are way empowered by this shit and are using it for even minor sexual transgressions or messy relationships (AKA HUMAN NATURE).

Of course there needs to be accountability for things that make you uncomfortable, but swinging a Harvey sized Hammer at every "LEAD" in some non extravagant position is soooo over kill. The virtue signaling and acting superior BS is outta control...

But people said these people were going to defend her. Yet they’re actively attacking her. Interesting. It’s almost as if they’re being consistent.

Is 'That Pure Potato'
It sounds like the IGDA has some cleansing of the ranks ala Activision Blizzard style to do. If one committee can get away with covering up wrongdoings by one of their members, over years, and despite what sounds like dozens of complainants coming forward, presumably they all can.

Also this bitch's career is done.
 
I found that things twitter and there has been no mention of the allegations against her yet. I wonder if or when this will blow up and people will go there blowing up her feed trying to cancel this predator?

Scheurle was a former Anet employee, yet she's not even getting support from other former Anet devs there. Seems like she already didn't have many friends within the company.
