    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    I got invited to a board game party once. They couldnt understand why I kept my elf as far away from the door to the master evils room as possible in third act, even skipping turns. My compatriot enter entered the room, triggering the big bad. I played my last spell, walk through walls, appearing at big bads back. The room went nuts with cheers and we won.

    Never got invited back *shrug*

    Duke, there's a board game simulator on Steam. We played a lot of games during the lockdown that way, even more complex ones like Eldritch Horror. It's a bit clunky but totally playable. We just set up a Discord server and used headsets to talk. You can even flip the table to spill the game on the virtual floor instead of packing up in the end.

    Similar to Duke. The friends I have here wouldn't have the patience to get through those more exquisite board games.

    I only have one friend who is really into them like that. Everyone else taps out when it gets much more complex than Catan.

    Was just going to say that Catan is as complex as I can go.

    One metal move that springs to mind was having my armies commit mass seppuku to win at Rising Sun.

    The most insane / hectic final round or two is when Bac0n and company realized why I had brought all my armies into one city and speed built the monument in Lords of Hellas.

    My largest failure was having a roided our priest in Betrayal at House on the Hill that Will Wheaton’ed two sure thing dice rolls to lose to the betrayers.

    Last night I dreamt that Scar sent me a briefcase full of money in the mail.

    I went to spend some of it somewhere and was immediately arrested, as it was counterfeit.

    Then on TV Scar was interviewed about it, and he just looked right into the camera and said "gotcha!"

    That's really what you spent your quarantine time doing, dude?

    I love boardgames.
    Blog!

    And it's happened once again
    I'll turn to a friend
    Someone that understands
    And sees through the master plan
    But everybody's gone
    And I've been here for too long
    To face this on my own
    Well, I guess this is growing up

    I just got a personal video message for my birthday from a kid I barely know online. He wished me a happy birthday and thanked me for being a good influence and steering him towards good things and being a better person. I'm like... I comment on his posts on Facebook and we chatted a few times, but sometimes a little is a lot if the effort hits home.

    Just... be excellent to each other, everyone.
