Scheurle was also one of the first to campaign against the honoring of Atari co-founder Nolan Bushnell by the Game Developers Conference, on the grounds that several women had come to her with stories that Bushnell had allegedly been responsible for a sexist and misogynistic workplace environment at Atari during the 1970s.
When asked for names and contact information for said accusers, Scheurle provided no such proof of their existence, instead replying that “You don’t understand.
