GeekList::It's time for another game ... How well do you know your game rules? Go on, have a go. You know you want to.
With bggcon about to start, I figure it's time for another GeekList game.This one is more challenging (maybe ... some of that last lot were pretty tough) but is another "chain game".Each new item posted should quote part of the rules to a game.The next item should show the game that the previous ite...

General Gaming::Grognads! Now I know why you were complaining.
I recall Grognads being fairly grumpy and bitchy a few months ago about the GeekMod weirdness. What was it? He was carping about obviously useful images being repeatedly declined?Now I understand.

I very much enjoy playing RtfG, as an ex-CCG player there is a lot about this game which appeals. It has the elements and feel of a collectable card game without many of the drawbacks and costs that I associate with them. As such it's easily in my top played games right now, but I was getting a li...
