I played a new game this recent game night (and since the comment, I’ve actually purchased it for myself). I’m not sure, but it may be the most entertaining game I’ve ever played. It may not be the *best* game, as I first thought, but I can’t remember a time I’ve had more flat out fun in a long time.
As mentioned here, my laptop has been angry with me for going on 4 months or so. This cause me to retreat away from my usual comfort space of Team Fortress 2 and MMOs, and try to find ways to amuse myself. I went two totally different directions – Facebook games, and diving back in […]
Carlos’ gift guide prompted this – it was originally just a comment, but once I noticed the size, I figured it needed a post of its own…. For the Board Game Geek (see what I did there?), Ascension: Rise of the Godslayer is quickly coming to be the new Dominion. It’s another “build your deck as […]
So, a follow up to this post. It’s been 7 months. The kids haved changed their behaviors around, gotten older, etc. So where are they?
I know, I know. I post a burst, talk about how I’m gonna do more, and disappear. Then return to hijack. I do actually have a post coming up on the strange trip I’ve been on for the past 3-4 months. See, my laptop (an ASUS G50vt from Best Buy) went wacky on me. Of a […]
I know, controversial title, right? So, today is a very geeky day. It’s Star Wars Day #2, because Star Wars was released 33 years ago today. It got overshadowed by Empire day, but…. It’s also Towel Day, because DNA (Douglas Noel Adams, Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy and other books author) died two weeks ago, […]
Enrique mentioned, in his description of me, that’s he curiuos how I’ll indoctrinate my kids in to the geek world.
While waiting for reports to run, I stumbled on the list of Travis County court dates scheduled over the last interval of time (whatever that may be). And apparently, I enjoy reading them.Â
So, thanks to D&D Encounters (which I think it a brilliant idea – short 1.5 to 2 hour bursts of gaming that anyone can join), I gamed for the first time in a couple years (which surprised me to realize). It was at a game store in Madison. I was reminded that game store employees […]
I love Joss Whedon. I idolize Aaron Sorkin. I just don’t get Kevin Smith. Or, put differently: I want to hang out with Joss Whedon. I want to *be* Aaron Sorkin. Kevin Smith is the guy that shows up at the game cause he’s friends with someone else, and I can’t tell him to leave.
