Thanks for the tax advice ! ❤️

Omg, really ? That makes sense ! I just accepted the mouse thing as a willy wonka side effect. Didn’t realize this could be a part of the history

Imma check out the games you listed, they sound interesting!

Yeah, I have some games I’m picking up using the auction. Potentially math trade too ?

This year, my plan is to play more and shop less. I really regret purchases like precognition and don’t want to make such a mistake again. Also keen on working for some of the publishers as a volunteer “rules explainer”. Let’s see how that goes 😅

I am going for all 4 days. So, don’t have to worry about going through all the halls in a day.

Hmm, sounds good to me. I’m gonna focus on playing too. I am glad I was able to get Turing machine then but kind of have a fomo on such games this year. Hopefully I can see past that 🙈

I wanna try working at the stalls for some producers during Spielmesse (you explain games to visitors and it’s on fhift basis) but don’t know how that affects taxes etc because I’m already full time employed. Oh well, to be determined

The issue seems to be surviving rules explanation/reading. And is apparently an issue it with this game. Even Rodney’s video wasn’t a hit 😅

However, your other suggestions are great. I’ll try that. I can just set the table up instead of waiting for a full acknowledgement in the very beginning

I think the struggle to go through the rules and getting bored in the process. It’s funny to me because mage knight wasn’t as much of an issue but this somehow isn’t working out.

That’s fine by me. I’m just wondering if there are other games out there that might be more of a success. Aeons end is an option I’m thinking of

Never heard of that in German. It’s just marshmallows with a generic German accent instead. But it’s cool to learn something new. Which region says that, OP?

Ohhh I’m so jealous. Travelling all the way from Berlin here. At least, by now, I have a constant Airbnb place I book for Spielmesse

Spirit island - branch and claw. Played in 2p mode. No tips or strategies since it was our first game after buying it. Played with no scenarios either and with both the new spirits. It went surprisingly easy.

Thanks for the uplifting words ❤️

Yeah, I’ve seen the movie. The best cluster fuck experience I could ask for. I still do not know what the donut was all about. 😅

I am “exponentially” better at nothing in comparison to others. There’s always this one kid, who will do whatever I do, far better than I can ever do.

Light: silver and gold

Medium: Dune Imperium

Heavy: mage knight

Favourite: Dune Imperium or mage knight

Most played: I have a rotation system that explicitly forces me into picking new games each week.
