2022 10 x 10 style challenges

Boardgames
#28

I have played a lot of games this month, by my humble standards. All remote, since Omicron is running rampant through Southern Ontario.

I’m going to try and see if I can convince my partner to try out Beyond the Sun with me soon, and I’d like to give Destinies another stab. Although we’ll probably finish Sleeping Gods first… we came very close, and then work picked up for both of us and we haven’t gone back to it yet.

Also, strictly speaking, I started a game of TI4, but I figure if I record the point I start PBF games, rather than when I finish them, it will make a bit more sense? I guess as long as I don’t double-dip it doesn’t really matter.

One down, 10 to go.

Okay, challenge created, and it’s a doozy, and unlikely to be completed.

10 x Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion
10 x Spirit Island
10 x Marvel Champions
10 x Unmatched
5 x Arkham Horror the card game
5 x Tyrants of the Underdark
5 x High Society
5 x Night of the Ninja
5 x Hansa Teutonica
5 x Star Wars: Imperial Assault
5 x Lost Ruins of Arnak
5 x The Search for Planet X
1 x Unfathomable
1 x Troyes
1 x Kemet
1 x Inis
1 x Five Tribes
1 x Dungeon Petz
1 x Lowlands
1 x Downforce
1 x Raccoon Tycoon
1 x Star Wars: Outer Rim
1 x Exit: the Secret Lab
1 x Star Wars: Unlock
1 x World Monuments
1 x Tigris and Euphrates
1 x Princes of Florence
1 x Lawyer Up
1 x A War of Whispers
1 x Race for the Galaxy
1 x Mr. Jack
1 x Lost Cities

For a grand total of 100 plays. Most of the higher count games are going to be solo plays, but most everything else requires other people, or I feel will be more enjoyable with others. Many of the x1’s would be first time plays, in an effort to reduce my shelf of shame/opportunity, though there will still be more even if all of these do get played, so even though they are not part of the challenge, I hope to get more of them played as well.

Nothing very impressive yet: 16 × 1, 6 × 2, 2 × 3.

Game Plays
Rallyman: GT 3
VOLT 3
Lemminge 2
Pandemic Legacy: Season 1 2
Rallyman 2
Terminator: Dark Fate – The Card Game 2

and apart from the last one more of those will probably roll in without my making any great effort. (Rallyman and GT for the ISGOYTRA competitions, Lemminge and VOLT on yucata, PanLeg with my regular partner for it.)

Anyone have a definition for “Tempation”?

Part 2: Opportunity 50

Month Plays Progress Games
January 2 [2/50] On Tour, Monarch

Happy with the start to the year, although need to make sure Part 2 doesn’t get too behind, given that’s the bigger challenge.

On Tour was a hit, with multiple plays for the month. It’s harder than it looks, so was a bit more tense than Welcome to… or Railroad Ink.

Have a fun-filled February!

I believe it’s French for “typographical error”.

There’s an update of my progress, with two additions, Rallyman GT, and Iwari. For D&D The Legend of Drizzt Do’Urden I am using the figures in our RPG sessions, so 50% there?? You be the judge of that…

A few more playthroughs. My partner and I finished our Sleeping Gods campaign, which was nice! The ending was a tiny bit disappointing, but overall a strong game, and I’m excited to try it again (at some point) with the expansion stuff included.

Other than that, we played 4 mysteries from MicroMacro: Crime City: Full House, which continues to be a joy. Oh, and a great game of War of the Ring with a buddy, which was spectacular, and a quick game of Blitzkrieg afterwards. That was lovely.

Gosh I miss people sometimes.

Nothing off this list yet. Still.

Someday.

I’m making some swift progress on my goals for 2022 after two months.

Though somewhat less complex games played this month, and the crew is propping up the number of plays a tad.

The end of the month was stressful at work, so hopefully I can pick back up a bit and get some serious wood pushed and cards shuffled.

I also use the unofficial bgg android app for logging plays as it’s quicker.

Some rapid progress on this end again, and a new goal of an average of 2 plays a day over the year. One of my apps has got confused though and insists I haven’t played every day when I clearly have, and it even lists all of the days with ticks by them. I blame daylight savings as it’s responsible for most of my ills at the moment.

Almost made it to 200 days

I think it’s time to get some more of the big boys to the table now.
