Friday Night Shots – Expansions Revisited
I know I’ve talked about expansions before on Friday Night Shots (both ones you won’t play again and whether or not you even like them to begin with), but a recent post on Boardgame Geek prompted another thought that I wanted to explore. Somebody… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Expansions Revisited”
Friday Night Shots – Are We All Required to Like the Same Games?
Taking a break from the Boardgame Geek thread that has been inspiring these posts the last couple of weeks, because I saw something else that sparked a desire to rant a little bit. Not that these posts should be rants, but sometimes they might… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Are We All Required to Like the Same Games?”
Top 50 Games Played of All Time – 2026 Edition (#10-1)
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)”
March 2025 Gaming
I knew March was going to be a big month for gaming, considering the Terminal City Tabletop Convention weekend. However, I had no idea how big it would be! Last month, I had 20 plays of 14 different games, and I thought it was… Continue Reading “March 2025 Gaming”
Friday Night Shots – Top 1000 BGG Games
I know what you’re thinking. Two Friday Night Shots posts in a row? That must mean Dave got the jukebox fixed! It’s amazing what paying your work people can actually do. Maybe that’s why I can’t keep a bartender? Anyway, welcome back! Pull up… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Top 1000 BGG Games”
Putting Wood on the Biblical Fire
Reading the description of Ezra & Nehemiah when it first hit Kickstarter, I was intrigued. If you read this blog for more than just one or two posts, you know I’m a huge fan of Garphill Games and the games designed by Shem Phillips… Continue Reading “Putting Wood on the Biblical Fire”
Friday Night Shots – Update and Rules Mistakes
Welcome back! I know it’s been a little while since my last post, and that was after me saying how proud I was that I haven’t had more than a week in between posts in a long time. Then I go and let 10… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Update and Rules Mistakes”
Top 50 Games Played of All Time – 2024 Edition (#10 – 1)
It’s been a long journey getting to this top 10. Not so much in weeks, as these posts have appeared for 5 weeks just like the previous Top 25 did (or they should have, but I’d forgotten that I took a much too long… Continue Reading “Top 50 Games Played of All Time – 2024 Edition (#10 – 1)”
Friday Night Shots – Table Talk
Hey everybody! It’s Friday, and it’s two Fridays since our last visit to the bar. Sorry for missing last week. Things got away from me a little bit and I just wasn’t in the correct headspace to write. However, I have my Captain Jack… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Table Talk”
May 2023 Gaming
It’s been another slower month of gaming this last May, again because one of our Sundays was cancelled (this month due to Mother’s Day…stupid moms!) This month, I had the same number of plays (19) as April but only 11 games instead of 13.… Continue Reading “May 2023 Gaming”
