You been here 4 hour!!!

--that'll be funny if you're familar with the reference (stand up comedy joke) and know what character AO played in the game.....so that'll drastically limit the humor potential of that joke.....

Heck. I was there and I still don't get it. Yes, I know--more training. Sigh.

Edit: Oh now, I remember after reading Ao's post. Yep, the ole brain just ain't what it used to be.

 

[Crothian]

No, it wasn't said at the game. Its from a comedy routine of some comic from the mid to late 90's. So, no big deal that none of you all are familar with it.

 

[Ao the Overkitty]

Yup. Totally went over my head.

So, what's up?

I'm just enjoying my first night off this week.

 

[Crothian]

its hot hear...not temp hot, muggy hot. Its like 68 outside and muggy...and no breeze. I feel stupid having the AC on when its 2 am and 68 degrees out.....

 

[Steve Jung]

Not much, just surfing here and at randomlings. We had showers here today, so the humidity is high. My group and I played a few games of Ninja Burger. If you play past the suggested win conditions, it isn't much fun.

 

[Ao the Overkitty]

Heh. Yeah. I was there the past couple of days. it hasn't been particularly warm, but the humidity has been way up there.

When I got home this morning I could tell it was going to be warm and muggy, so when i got up this afternoon I checked outside, then turned on the AC.

Thankfully now that the rain has hit, it is nice and cool out. Got the windows open and everything.

Ya, the game tends to drag after a point. I recently played Chuthlu 500, and that was a fun game. We ran into a few rules problems but I think that was more becasue the other people refused to listen to me.

My latest fix has been Chrononauts. Orchid and myself got to play it at Pkitty's and we had a blast. So much that we went out and picked up a copy of the Early American Edition. Haven't had a chance to play that one yet. Going to have to drag guedo over some evening I'm around or something.

Everyone plays time travellers and the goal is to either change history back to the way you remember it so you can go home or collect the artifacts you need to complete your mission (or repair enough paradoxes that the others create to amass ten cards in your hand). Maybe you're a slave from a reality where the south suceeded in seceeding or maybe you're an intelligent cockroach that comes from a time after world war three.

It is just lots of fun to mess with the other player's plans. The game is done by the same people who made Fluxx.

you will need 2 6 siders.....and then you must train!!

I remember when using 2 6 siders was hard. Now I use a few 100 siders a day and don't break a sweat! It's nice to be a major nerd. God. Major god.

Fun game, a friend picked this one up. Looney Labs has even had special con only cards for that we got. We haven't gotten the american one yet, but its damn tempting.
