Tue, 12 August 2008 ![]() It's been a great summer of gaming and I just returned from a trip up to West Coast MeepleFest were fun was had by all. I wasn't able to take Christina with me this year but I still managed to have a nice time even as I missed having her there by my side. Although I didn't record any volumes of Boardgame Babylon, I do appear on the latest Garrett's Games and Geekiness alongside Aldie, Paul Tevis and Ric Bretschneider (and Doug and Shelly, of course). Additionally, I wrote up my session reports from the convention and they ended up being so long that I decided against reproducing them here. Instead, I shoved them on a Geeklist here: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/geeklist/33755 (see the pic for a shot of one of the weekend's silliest moments - me mercilessly defeating newbies in the traditional Loopin' Louie tournament - photo courtesy of Greg Zamira) I'm looking ahead to the next couple of conventions. Gateway 2008 is at the end of the month and it should be a great time. Again, I'm demonstrating games on Friday and Saturday - including new games from Z-Man, Days of Wonder, Rio Grande, Fantasy Flight, and a few other companies. Come out and join us in Southern California for the best convention series around. The next Boardgame Babylon is a Session Review show with comments on Age of Gods, Octego, and a great book of games called "The 15 Greatest Board Games In the World!" Thanks for downloading and listening to Boardgame Babylon. We're hitting huge numbers lately and it is much appreciated!
