January 2026 Gaming
Hard to believe that we’re already a month into 2026! My, how time flies. I wasn’t sure what to expect from January, especially because we had some really small Sundays and long games played. Which is good! But also means that not a lot… Continue Reading “January 2026 Gaming”
Bye Bye Dice Tower
It’s been a wild week, both in the world and in the boardgaming sphere. I don’t really comment too much on here about social issues, politics, etc, because this is kind of my safe space for getting away from all of that. However, I… Continue Reading “Bye Bye Dice Tower”
December 2025 Gaming
December turned out to be a gaming lost cause for the most part. Two Sundays cancelled for various reasons, one shortened one, and a bunch of work stuff going on so lunches weren’t always available as well. In fact, if it wasn’t for my… Continue Reading “December 2025 Gaming”
Blog in Review – 2025
Happy New Year, everybody! I hope you had a wonderful and safe holiday season and new year’s celebration last night. Maybe you were out celebrating, or just having drinks with friends? Or maybe you were even asleep? Whichever it was, I hope it was… Continue Reading “Blog in Review – 2025”
November 2025 Gaming
I knew November would be much better than October for my gaming, because there’s a really nice 4-day convention in November. I didn’t expect that it would be this much better, though! In November, I managed to play 36 games a total of 57… Continue Reading “November 2025 Gaming”
October 2025 Gaming
Who knew that after my 1000th post celebration, the next one would just be a regular “hey, what did Dave play last month?” post? In other words, we’re back to normal. The cake has been eaten, the ado has been stored so nobody can… Continue Reading “October 2025 Gaming”
1000 Posts and Counting
This blog started back in March 2017 and has been a going concern (sometimes very concerned!) for over 8 years now. As my mental health has changed and my motivation has lagged sometimes, the post count has gone up and down, but I’ve consistently… Continue Reading “1000 Posts and Counting”
Why Do We Play Games?
I enjoyed board and war games as a kid, though I obviously didn’t think a lot about them. There was, of course, Monopoly and Candyland and all of that childhood trash that we look back on and say “did we really play that?” As… Continue Reading “Why Do We Play Games?”
September 2025 Gaming
September was a weird month of gaming, mainly because I had a huge number of plays compared to August, but actually fewer games! Part of that was because the final two Sunday game days were dominated by a huge game of Wonderland’s War (details… Continue Reading “September 2025 Gaming”
August 2025 Gaming
It’s nice when a month of gaming comes together in unexpected ways is better than you expected it to be. I was surprised by July’s gaming numbers, considering I was off. August came around and I was going to be missing one Sunday due… Continue Reading “August 2025 Gaming”
