Re: OEAO's Power Rankings
In traditional double-blind formats, Deadeye Dan deserves his D. He can be a situationally valuable piece of the puzzle in draft formats, though. Either as a low cost, high variance counterdraft, or...

Re: Announcing ScapeCon: July 29th-August 1st
Lol, thanks!
I swear CoVCon is fine if you just say it out loud and don’t read it... which is what I was doing when I came up with it...[/QUOTE]

Re: Online Diplomacy Game for Heroscapers
I happened to stumble across this thread from about 10 years ago, and it made me smile, considering that it finally happened. I'd forgotten that I had signed up for this. I miss tom ; I wonder what...

Re: Letters From the Front
Thanks for sharing!
Is Tales from the Loop the one that's kind of like Stranger Things? I heard it live played on a podcast I listen to. I enjoyed it, and it definitely had a different feel from...

Re: The Pre-SoV Workshop
I'll preface this by saying, as I've said all along, that I like the mini and I like the theme. Or, at least, what I imagine the theme to be. I also firmly applaud the decision to keep working on a...

Re: Announcing CoVCon!
This format would address my concerns about COVID, I think. A few buddies spread at normal distances in a room is one thing; the Dealer Hall is a whole other petri dish. I'll discuss among my people.

Re: Gen Con 2021 Roll Call
So many things to think about! One factor would be my confidence in my own vaccine protection. If I feel like I'm 85% protected against a variant and maybe 10% of my fellow gamers are not vaccinated,...

If some insignificant number of people weren't vaccinated, I wouldn't care. For exactly the reasons you say. I wish we were speaking of some relatively insignificant number. But I don't think we are....

Re: Gen Con 2021 Roll Call
If I don't have some kind of assurance that others in attendance are not vaccinated then I won't go. It boggles my mind that some people are choosing not to protect themselves from a terrible disease...

Re: Diplomacy
Good question! "Gunboat" refers to the game setting that means that players don't know each other's identities.
It's ok to have hunches, though those guesses (even by KD and Kinseth, who have...

Re: Diplomacy
As Kinseth's post points out, the slight change in the dynamic after (or during) the elimination of a minor power can lead to action. And that's fun! It's all part of the game.

Some players prefer "draw-whittling," and some do not. Generally, as I recall, in games played by veterans you would see Russia eliminated in games such as this one, but not always. People could have...
