Never did learn how to read properly.

I read that it gets multiplied by a number - presumably 5 for a long game and 1 for a short... But you can still get analysis paralysis in short games - and what about time for reading rules - both could be frustrating. Especially if you are playing to win .

Where is this taking place? Checked through the thread and couldn't see a location?

At the club - Tuesday, July 28th.

I've just seen my new favourite picture of Mr. Knizia. Shame we don't have a signed version of this to give away.

You should get it printed on a t-shirt the. WE should ask him along personally to sign it.... You being his biggest fan

Jon - will you need any help with the admin on the night or is it all under control? Great flyers by the way!

Cheers Paul. I think were ok on the night as all we really need to do is get people to fill in the score cards when they finsih a game and collect them all together. A few of us can then get together another night (be great if your up for doing that) and work out the scores etc which we can then post here for people to start chossing there prizes ! It just means that no-one misses out from playing by having to do the admin on the night, downside is people wont find out on the night who gets prizes but Aneurin for one doesnt seem to care about winning games anymore hes now 100% focused on being crowned 'best bow-tie' by the man himself !!

Yep, and you also got through a lot of games on the night!

Sounds like it was a great night, nice work Jon. I would totally have won the bow tie competition as my other half makes them (place orders via PM or in person!) but no doubt about worthy winners. Except Aneurin.

Woohoo!

Really like Ingenious, Ra was interesting, thought the car game was a bit odd. I won't be down this Tuesday as I will be in London volunteering for the Great british Beer Festival and trying to drink (my not unsubstantial) weight in real ale.
