Solife.

Back in Maryland --there was a mom and a MoMo waiting for me at the airport, which was super GLOMP!!!

...Erm. Super-aweso-tastic. MoMo just decided to steal the keyboard in the middle of my typing, and who am I to let people not steal computers?

Soyeah, I'm home, and within about half an hour of getting there, I decided impulsively to bake cookies. So that's what I'm up to now.

Magus and I went off to Dan4th's last night in order to play games. First game played: "What do you want for dinner?" Second game played: "I don't know, what do you want to play?" Yeah. Dan4th and DaBunny ++

We did eventually settle into playing "real" games, which was multiple levels of sheer excellence. Games played are: David and Goliath, Loopin' Louie, Jungle Speed, Category 5, Covert Action, and Three-Dragon Ante. And possibly something else that I'm forgetting.

(Side note? I neeeeeed a copy of Loopin' Louie, holy shit. It's too damn fun. Also, humanity bless Jungle Speed with more than three people. I had forgotten just how damn good the game is when you play it with enough people (eight is about ideal) Alsoalso, The Empty City needs a copy of Three-Dragon Ante, methinks, if only because it's got beautiful dragons on it, and that's right up mom's alley.)

In other news, someone remind me to take pictures of our games cabinets for Dan4th. Or something like that.

I am hating the wrench too.

Re: Jungle Speed

I disagree. I think 8 is too many (particularly without L'Extension, so each player only gets 10 cards). I think optimal is somewhere in the 4-6 range, where the game doesn't devolve into sheer ridiculous tedium when a color match comes out and you have to wait for all the slow play and pausing for a challenge every few turns until it clears.

(Alternately, with 7+ I prefer the other official color match rule where it's for the next single challenge. It's also confusing, but it's less annoying.)

Glad you made it back safely. *hug*

Is Loopin' Louie the game where you've got the crazy pilot knocking chickens off the roof or something? I think I remember seeing commercials for that game years and years ago.
