I knew this month would not be as good as last month. No conventions! But I was still able to get some solid gaming in, though maybe not as much as usual. One Sunday I wasn’t able to make it and the lunchtime games… Continue Reading “April 2026 Gaming”

After a rather lackluster February gaming month, I knew March was going to be pretty huge. Not only was it the great Terminal City Tabletop Convention, but it also captured one day of Bottoscon Winter. It would have been even larger if we hadn’t… Continue Reading “March 2026 Gaming”

It’s been a couple of weeks since I’ve done one of these BGG centuries posts, though not because I was getting tired of them. There were just more important things to post about! I enjoy writing these BGG posts, even when the games are… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 1901 Through 2000”

January 2026 wasn’t a huge month for new to me games, though the ones I did play were very fun. That may change in February, though, since a friend of mine has bought a few games I’ve never played, so we’ll get some of… Continue Reading “New to Me – January 2026”

Now we’ve gone and done it. We’ve now reached the Top 10 games of all time, played by me at least. It’s been an incredible 5 weeks (ok, 6, but last week’s Friday post was important) of new games, oldies dropping in the rankings,… Continue Reading “Top 50 Games Played of All Time – 2026 Edition (#10-1)”

It’s another week and another entry in the Top 50 Games Played of All Time (the 2026 edition!) Of course, this is “games played,” not “games” because at only 587, my number of games played doesn’t even scratch the surface of what’s out there,… Continue Reading “Top 50 Games Played of All Time – 2026 Edition (#30-21)”

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”

Being off for almost the entire month of July, I wasn’t expecting much on the gaming front. However, I managed to attended a Wednesday night meet-up a couple of times, which greatly helped take the place of our normal lunchtime games at work, at… Continue Reading “July 2025 Gaming”
