Rab's top ten games

Can I just say that Rab makes for a half-decent looking woman? Do something about the beard shadow (foundation!), and I don't know, I might look at you twice, just to check it out. How's the booty? I like 'em big and round and juicy.

Well, it's not like I don't like (or love) a large percentage of the games you listed. Likely, we probably hate a lot of the same games too. But that ain't going to stop me from challenging you on a couple of things. All in good fun, I assure you. I like it rough.

Lists are, as we all know, a constant source of controversy...to be honest, that's what makes them fun. If you want to cheese people off...make a top 10 list.

Anyway, so can we do the man hug thing now? Arms barred across the front in a handshake gesture to avoid genital bumping. No buttock cupping or pausing of the hand, please limit patting to three pats.

thanks for dropping by Rab

Applejack, if we can get confirmation on the plumpness of Rab's booty, we might could lift some of those manhugging restrictions if you so desire.

Thanks Dr Mabuse for reminding me about Rob Florence's videos. They are good stuff, and Barnes I have trouble figuring out why you had such a negative reaction. Sometimes you criticize people for taking games too seriously. Other times you criticize them for not taking them seriously enough. Sometimes it just sounds like you want to vent and the catalyst can be almost anything. Still love you though.

Anyway about Florence. I particularly like the Downtime Town video review of Dixit. Rob's sincerity cuts through all the bullshit that gets in the way of good gaming and good company.

I like that Rab was parodying Tom Vasel, who would probably find it amusing. It also makes me happy that both frequent this site, often lurking in the background.

Unfortunate. It's train wrecks like this that make me regret being involved in this hobby.

I've played a lot of Reiner Knizia games, and I'd support what Rab said about them in the main.

I kind of think Rab should feel incredibly complimented. His list has inspired a 7 page thread and a ton of slightly heated conversation.... no mean feat around here.

I could make a list and no one would care, that alone says something. Would Barnes take the time to question my (lack of) credibility? One can hope I suppose.

You know that's funny that you mentioned that JJ because I just completed an audit of your gaming history and I found that you have never played Piranha Pedro. I can't help but call into question everything you have ever posted.

Well, it's after midnight, so here's my Friday contribution ... Go back and read your responses to some of the exchanges about "professional reviewers" taking free stuff from publishers and try to tell us again that this "never"--a word that really can't be qualified away to mean anything less than "not once"--statement is remotely true.

I enjoy your writing; I enjoy your contributions....But I do think that statement, as written, is balls-deep in bullshit.

More seriously, I gotta agree with Mad Dog here, one notable thumb in the eye and a bunch of "your choices suck and here's why I'm smarter than you" is more or less par for the course anywhere, let alone this joint. Maybe I skimmed past it, but I don't think I saw a post in here that tiptoed near, let alone crossed, the line to get it moved to the partially obscured "internet dick waving" portions of the site. If this is what folks think of as a "trainwreck" these days, y'all are getting kind of soft.

*Edited*

It's not true no one thinks of your feelings, Barnes.
