When it comes to the vote stage here is what i had in mind: Each member to have up to 3 votes - to vote for a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place in each category - members...
MY NOMINATIONS I know you said "by email to you". and that's probably fairer without introducing bias, but I don't think the difference is great, and thought...
To jog people's memories, and to fit with Neil's rider that the game has to have been played at LBGC in 2007, and for fun, here is a full list of games played...
Thanks for that Bob. I will set a deadline for the nominations phase - 14th Jan. Remember this phase is just for games you would like to see being voted on -...
All, Apologies, I really haven't had the time for games last year, so I can nominate very few (only games I have actually played, although not necessarily at...
My nominations: Game of the year: Imperial, Perikles, Railroad Tycoon, Shadows over Camelot,Tikal New Game: Perikles, Hamburgum, Container Best Mechanic:...
My nominations in no particular order: a) Game of the Year (can be any game played); Perikles, History of the World, Labyrinth, Struggle of Empires, Imperial ...
A reminder that there is one week to go before the nominations phase ends. Question 1? Perikles was released in 2006 yet including myself there are 4...
Hi Neil (& anyone else reading this) Question 1: Sounds like a good idea. A new game, for me, is one I haven't played before. And I can't be bothered to look...
Hi all Forgot to mention in my last reply (& going off-topic slightly), I have just seen this geeklist on BGG: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/geeklist/27902 Look...
I agree with you, Dave, and with Andrew's suggestion as to what is a "new" game. Too hard to check which WERE published only from 2007, so, save hassle. And...
I agree with Dave B. : Question 2: Also a good idea, as long as peoples feelings are not hurt when the winner of the wooden spoon turns out to be a game they ...
well I won't be voting for PR under the worst game category. Acquire does suffer from heavy randomness potentially leaving a player sitting there doing nothing...
We should not take the suggestions for worst game too seriously, they will probably reveal more about our tastes in gaming than the games themselves. I doubt...
'1. ORIGINS. Slower than the evolution it reprsents, but without the excitement of sudden changes over only half a million years.' thats my first proper...
Containers - too much like hard work doing all those computations ... so thats why i lost - couldn't be bothered to work things out - i just aimed to get what...
Don't worry Andrew I didn't take it personally. I've come around to preferring Caylus to PR now anyway. I did enjoy Containers (even with the EasyShipping...
Brian I agree with you about Hamburgum. I would like to play that again. Not as good as Imperial (by the same designer but totally different theme), but worth...
Dave, Antike is a great game. I'm planning on buying that this year. But Hamburgum is definitely a game I want to play soon. I don't know Imperial at all ...
Brian Antike, Imperial & Hamburgum are all from the same designer and all feature the rondal mechanic, but are completely different games from each other so...
Not played Hamburgum - would like to at some point. Antike is not a bad game and it has some nice features, but for me it seems too predictable and there are...
I will sort out the nominations for voting today (probably) so for anyone who hasn't nominated there is still time - i'm doing this partly because in all...
Hi all, after a very interesting game of Perikles yesterday, and seeing that this is problably the current top game in the club, I want to write a post about...
Good points. I think that all 3 of those changes/corrections could make it a better game. I don't have a set myself (yet!), nor a copy of the rules to refer...
Bob, The combat rules we played were wrong. The point of falling between two columns only applies to the +2/-2 columns, that you can choose that column or the...
Updated league table, after Perikles played 13 Jan 08. POINTS: 4 players: 1st gets 5 points, then 3,2,1 points. 5 players: 1st gets 6 points, then 4,3,2,1...
We are all jointly top of the league! We haven't played it yet. Well, not since it was nominated as a game worth having a league-table on (quite right). We...
Hmm. When I drafted that post, I carefully employed the space-bar to spread out the numbers in the league table, and make the relevant stats appear below...
