Well the badge checker, badgered me into playing in two board game tournaments,
I actually had beginners luck in Kingmaker and was 2nd alt for the finals. With Jonwin's to help me play more games, I hope to place higher in the standing next year.
In Jonwin's favorite game, I got to face a poker-face lawyer, in my one and only attempt at playing Football Strategy. Later he was beaten by Jonwin, who ended up 3th place. The top four players each come once a year just for a chance to play this faded old board game.
Jonwin play in 2 other games where he came in 3th and 4th place. But then he been the far more active board gamer over the years, I having found it easier to play online, then look for someone willing to move counters around hexes just to replay battles.
It was too hot to sit by the pool and I broke out with a allergic reaction to the sunscreen, so stay in my hotel room and read and write some, when not wandering the con looking games to play.
The loser wargamer image will not die. The old overwieght geeks, who hunt the BPA, did try to shower once a day, their sons have not yet learn the 3 a day rule of One shower, 2 meals and at least 3 hours of sleep a night.
