Looks like a good argument for scrubbing orders around Birmingham AL and potentially canceling one or two...
Nice to see Bob pulling out the guitar on this leg of the tour. It’s also amazing how much even the R&RW material has mutated since performances inMarch.
Ah yes, it's YOUR fault I ended up with Earl Grey vanilla cream stuck in my beard on my last NYC trip! :)
Heard great things about this festival from friends who attended. Thanks for the opportunity to check out some of what I missed!
@mountain_goats needs to play @treefortfest next year just to wipe the floor with the all the other musicians at this event.
Have extra tickets to BGGCON Spring if you or anyone else needs 'em for free! :) Currently only planning for Geekway to the West and a local con in the Rockies. (SHUX too, depending on when it happens.)
My recent culling focus has been based on who in local game circles own the game. If several other people own it and I can easily borrow, there a better chance of it leaving my shelf.
Made the mistaking of backing Sweet Mess for a kids' holiday gift, funded April 2018 and will probably never be produced. (Or if it ever does get released those kids will already be in college.🤣🤣)
Just taking a little time to show up and voice support can have a huge impact. As soon as Jason left there was a visible morale boost for the workers heading back to stand firm along Mississippi and Chambers.
These guys might have shown up to support, but we know who the real superheroes are: members of @UFCW_7 and other #essentialworkers risking it all to stand up for a better workplace.
I never had a chance to record or even see a lineup with Ryan, but still feel lucky to catch projects from Seth and Dana occasionally. (And RIP Miles, I sure do miss that guy!)
Based on our experience w/ this play, as well as early plays of Lisboa and On Mars, from now on I will probably teach/learn Vital games as a 2-player count. Much easier to understand the board engines and player interaction with just 2 actors affecting the board instead of 4.
Somebody was asking whether anyone at this show had been there at the first one back on 12/2/84. I’m guessing maybe Todd and one or two other old-timers?
There aren’t fiddly things like “executive actions”. (Though 1 action can still trigger bonus actions strung together) But I think the themes related to game actions is less strong than his other games, which makes the overall strategy harder to grok.
@valens116 - The art on my G-line ride thru Brooklyn this morning is looking very familiar!
