If you have any suggestions on how to beat that, I’d love… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Some Assembly Required! (Shipyard)”
Friday Night Shots – Reviews vs First Impressions

I think that’s how that old Christmas poem… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Catch Up Mechanisms”
Friday Night Shots – Who’s First Player?
Welcome back! It wouldn’t be a Friday night without seeing you here. I hope your week has gone well and, if you’re like I am, looking forward to a long weekend. Grab a seat, and let’s chat about “first player rules”! This will probably… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Who’s First Player?”
