New Years Gaming Resolutions 2015

My resolution will be to play with ten different players from F:At on Vassal this year. I'll need help guys! But I'll keep banging on the Vassal Singles Bar thread to see if I can scare up some opponents. Starting Thursday I'll have one already, since I'm halfway through a game with ThirstyMan.

My #1 gaming resolution is to do things other than gaming.

I swore I wrote one on the 2014 thread, but I guess not.

No resolution, probably just staying the couse I set a couple years ago of buying expansions.

And hosting a TrashFest.

I resolve to finally tell the story of my only published boardgame. It will be a F:AT exclusive.

1. Get my prototype finished and begin playtesting
2. Continue to only get a few games a year at Xmas and my birthday to avoid clunkers
3. Get rid of the few completely unplayed games that I don't even want to waste time on because I'd much rather play the great games I have. (looking at you Vegas Showdown ordered in 2006)
4. Sell friggin Starcraft! (or... maybe play it again?)
5. Organize at least 3 TI3 games and 1 Risk Legacy session
6. Get more gaming into my routine

To play more board games. I've been playing X-Wing once a week for the past year, and board games have kind of fallen by the wayside. I don't know if this requires me to play less X-Wing, or if I can fit both activities into my schedule, but I really need to play some board games again.

With grad school breathing down my neck I want to learn to try more tools like Vassal. I have a few friends who aren't local but would like to learn Twilight Struggle.

My resolutions are about the same every year.

1. Play more! At least 2-3 times a month...or even twice a month.
2. 18xx. I want to play more of a range of 18xx games I've wanted to get in.
3. Meaty game nights. Want to play some more longer games this year like Civ., Game of Thrones, etc.

And I want to continue to NOT BUY GAMES UNTIL I PLAY THEM...and love them.

When I was involved in three Attack Wing events per month that's what happened to me, everything else went by the wayside. And I ended up skipping quite a few of my regular Sunday game days due to Attack Wing the night before. Now that I've cut back to not hosting and just going to one, it's freed up a lot of my limited gaming time for other things.

My resolution is to defend my Blood Bowl championship!

This might take 2 years to do judging on how long it took us to play through our last league.

I play a game only once a month. Since I moved just over a year ago I haven't been able to get back into the routine of weekly or bi-weekly gaming.

But a confession: it slightly bums me out that the people I used to game with weekly haven't stepped up to pick up the game night slack. You know, to share the burden hosting. If I indulge that thought, I feel kinda used. And so my new year's resolution is clear: I hereby resolve not give in to the temptation of worrying about that bullshit, but to get back to organizing game regular nights, feeding people and filling their glasses with my best scotch, and to think only about how happy game nights make people.

Just for that, I give you this:

whoah thats mental, but I still think the most disturbing ad I've seen this year is this
i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2012/10/13/artic...05DC-715_634x890.jpg

Even baby's baby is pregnant!!

Who thought up this shit? It's like something the Japanese might invent.

The Japanese make me laugh, and the Russians sometimes, because they just don't give a shit about homophobic/racist ads and just fucking go for it. You'd get clapped in irons in the UK for coming up with the 'drop the soap ad' and actually broadcasting it. Rightly so.

No resolutions this year.
I will be trying to bring the right attitude more often and buying less which is actually getting easier every year.
