Stormseeker75's first 1000 games played
|
|
|
I officially logged my 1000th game played last night. In a lot of ways, it felt like my birthday. It was fun. We picked out a special game that we both like and decided that would be #1000. I felt like we were celebratinga all the fun we've had and all the good times and good friends this hobby has brought us. Here's a look at my first 1000 games played.

This is the first game I logged on BGG. It was March of last year. I was just scratching the surface of what this site has to offer. This led me to write my first Geeklist which ultimately showed me a huge amount of games. In the end, the only one I ended up getting was El Grande and that was about 6 months after I did the list. But still, it introduced me to some new ideas in games and also to the great BGG community. |

This is my second-second most played game. I regard this one as the highest because its just so easy to play 10 games of Magic in a row. This one has definitely been played on many more occassions so its my unofficial most-played title.
I think this one gets played so much because its very easy to play, but there's a lot of fun decisions to make. I love the fact that the game is half auction and half blind bid. Many Geeks don't like blind bidding, but my family eats it up, so this one gets played almost every time we get together and I think it always will. I should probably rate this one higher than I do. |

This, according to stats, is my most played game. In reality, Magic has only really been getting played since the end of May when I switched jobs. I now work with a childhood friend who I used to play Magic with. Now that we work together, we'll play 8-10 games a day when we're both in the office. Its still fun after all these years and I'm glad I get to enjoy the game in a casual setting. 3 years of constant competition ruined Magic for me once upon a time. Now we play with pre-constructed decks and we have a blast. |

This list would be nothing without my favorite game of all time: Carcassonne. My log shows that I've only played this 27 times but in fact, its probably well over 300. I don't log my online plays and I usually play at least once a day. I don't know how I could find that out for sure, but I'd like to know.
The reason this doesn't get played more is that I only like this one as a 2-player game so it doesn't get played when my family is around. I've tried it with more and it just doesn't work as well for me. |

This list would not be complete without my other perfect 10, Scripts and Scribes. This game is just perfect in the same way that For Sale is. Its easy but incredibly challenging. Again, this has less plays because I prefer this one as a 2-player game. Also, it only scales to 4 which is tough because there's usually 5 of us when the family gets together. On the whole, this is an incredible game that I have enjoyed over 20 times. |

I think I have more then a 1,000 games logged in the last 6 months, but will have to check - is it bad to copy your idea of a Geek List?
