November 26, 2005: Weekend Report

Okay, the weekend is well past by now, but . . .

Saturday I was at my alma mater, Rice University in Houston, for a Game Day. 'Twas fun. I got to meet a lot of students; I played some Munchkin and Super Munchkin, learned Krokinole, got schooled badly at We Love Katamari, and in general had a good time.

Sunday was mostly an UltraCorps skull session with Kira. Progress continues; the first fully open game should be soon.

Here's a picture of me in the new Munchkin Christmas T-shirt. This one is a Warehouse 23 exclusive . . . apparently the distributors don't need any more gaming shirts right now. But we LIKED it, darn it, so we made a few anyway. I like the color. I haven't decided if it will go into the regular shirt rotation, or if I'll just bring it out in December, in which case it'll probably last me 20 years.

Warehouse 23 News: Second Verse, Bigger Than The First

The game of comparing things has gotten comparably bigger. Not only does Apples to Apples Junior 9+ Second Edition contain everything from the first edition of the game, it contains even more cards made for the second edition! Now gamers ages 9 and up can compare one thing to another over and over and over until they're ready for games that currently reside a little over their heads.
