Great meeting you guys this weekend! I've been thinking about "Tribune" quite a bit since we played. Even though the cards did play a role in my not claiming the 3 victory conditions, If I had thought about it, I could have claimed a third condition by holding on to one of my faction controls and using it to gain a Tribune. In retrospect, the game penalizes you for focusing too narrowly on any one victory condition. This is not a bad thing, and makes being able to see the big picture all the more important. I look forward to playing again.

Thanks again,
Dave Bockhaus

ps. Now that your pod cast mention has made me famous, I'll only be available for game play through my agent.

Dave,

And Greg said you weren't really a gamer!  Man, if you're thinking about the game 2 days after playing and are looking forward to another play, you ARE a gamer.

My agent will be contacting your agent so we can play again!

You mentioned what the second and third place winners of the last contest would be, but I don't recall hearing about the prizes for the new one.

Or, wait, er, maybe I did actually hear you say it and, er, it's a $500 gift certificate to gateplay.com. I'm right, aren't I? Right?]]> Comment on Garrett's Games and Geekiness 122 tag:garrettsgames.com,2008-07-13:1192507 Mark Jackson http://akapastorguy.blogspot.com 2008-07-14T07:48:50Z 2008-07-13T21:18:52Z Comment on Garrett's Games and Geekiness 121 tag:garrettsgames.com,2008-07-10:1183877 Trent 2008-07-10T12:38:55Z 2008-07-10T04:23:56Z

Yeah, 2-3 rounds would have been OK, but 13 killed it.  I think our friends (esp. my male colleague) was just completely oblivious to the pain we were experiencing!  We try to hide misery, especially with non-gamers who may try other things, so hopefully we can convince them to try OUR games next time.

Thanks for the comment.

I'll set up a few games over the weekend and then people can join in on a first come/first serve basis.  We're a bit busy with the 4th of July holiday!

Why am I not getting podcasts in Itunes any more? Are you publishing them there still? Or is this a problem unique to me...

I sent you an email, Miguel, but wanted to let others know who wander by here that we DID have a major RSS problem back in December that I had to fix by changing the entire feed.  You can subscribe here at the site (click on Podcasts RSS 2.0 on the left column) or through iTunes.
