Two Fridays in a row! Welcome back to the bar. I hope you’re enjoying the excessively wet evening out there. Why not cozy up to the bar, get some heat going, along with a drink of some sort, and just have a chat? I… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – 5 Player Games”

It’s the first month of the year! And it’s also almost the end of February. Yes, it took so much energy to get my Top 50 games played of all time done, along with getting sick recently, that we’re into the last week of… Continue Reading “New to Me – January 2024”

It’s hard to believe August is over and we’re in September now! August was primed to be a big gaming month but it kind of sputtered with me getting sick. Missing a Sunday probably took 2-3 games (or at least plays) away from my… Continue Reading “August 2023 Gaming”

Dragonflight was my first convention ever, back in 2015 (I think). It’s held at the same hotel in Bellevue, Washington, as OrcaCon is held (though the hotel rooms are a lot more expensive, being in the Summer instead of January like OrcaCon). Thus, it… Continue Reading “Dragonflight 2023 Retrospective”

It’s Friday again! That was fast (that could be because I’m not writing this on Friday, since I’m actually out playing games tonight!) Grab a seat, and I hope you don’t mind the Delerium playing on the speakers. The volume’s not high. Can I… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – One And Done Games”

Three weeks. Yes, that’s three weeks. Three weeks in a row where I’ve done an entry for the Top 300 games on BGG! Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy? I know, right? I don’t believe it either! Anyway, this is the… Continue Reading “Boardgame Geek Top 300 – Play or Played – #240 – 231”

I know it’s been a while (my last post was May 28), but here were finally are with another entry in the COVID-long series of posts about games on Boardgame Geek and whether or not I’ve played them.

Wow, it’s been over a month since the last edition of the Top 300 boardgames on Boardgame Geek. I think that’s a bad sign. Is it a bad sign? Is it because of the funk I’ve been in over the last month or so?… Continue Reading “Boardgame Geek Top 300 – Play or Played – #280 – 271”

Wow, I’m lazy. Either that, or I’ve been in a bad mental space. You know, 2021 was supposed to be better, but so far it’s barely been marginally better and that’s only because 2020 sucked so much. I finished the Top 200 BGG games… Continue Reading “Boardgame Geek Top 300 – Play or Played – #300-291”
