International TableTop Day Plus Updated Board Game List
I was kind of dying by the end of it, but other than that International TableTop Day was awesome. Did the same thing that we did last time. We woke up at midnight the day of and play all the way through the entire day for a total of 24 hours.
The other time we had several new games (you can read my report of the 2015 International TableTop Day here), which was exciting and kept the day fresh. This year we only had Pandemic Legacy: Season 2 and Signs of Carcosa (which isn't even a full game; just an expansion), but that ended up being fine.
Eric and I pretty boss at Pandemic Season 2, as Eric mention in his post here (might as well plug all the posts). The only games we've lost thus far were with 0 rationing (which means we don't get any cool useful cards in our deck). But, man, did we lose those games. Like, we got crushed. There was nothing we could do. I'm excited to keep playing. We played 6 games, one of those being the prologue.
We played some Avalon. Those games were kind of ridiculous.
Played some Dominion. I'm starting to like Prosperity a lot less now-a-days, which is interesting.
I remade my Fav. Board Game list! I cut out slips of paper with names of all the games and ordered them without reference to my old list (although that doesn't keep me from remembering where some games were place), so I could try to be unbiased. Here's the old list for reference (both mine and yours) (it's collapsed for space reasons):
1. Caverna, Viticulture, SeaFall, Dominion, 5. Pandemic Legacy, Summoner Wars, Ashes: Rise of the Phoenixborn, 7 Wonders, Hearthstone, 10. Imhotep, Istanbul, Alhambra, Dead of Winter, The Castles of Burgundy, 15. Agricola, Chess, Village, Magic: The Gathering, My Village, 20. 7 Wonders: Duel, astles of Mad King Ludwig, Terra Mystica, Small World, Fresco, 25. Codenames: Pictures, Telestrations, Treasure Hunter, Eldritch Horror, Tzolk'in, 30. Settlers of Catan, Oltre Mare, Five Tribes, Pandemic, Mice and Mystics, 35. Heroscape, Timeline, Ticket to Ride: Europe, Steampunk Rally, Dixit, 40. Citadels, Zooloretto, Love Letter, King of Toyko, Kingdom Builder, 45. Kingsburg

1st off: The adapter didn't work and that makes me kind of really sad (It connected to the ethernet, but didn't increase the NAT type)

3rd off: Spoilers, but I'll definitely mention it in a later post because yeet
4th off: Wasn't Isle of Dogs so good?? (#betterthanInfinityWar (but definitely not as crazy))

Carcosa (again), and Awesome Week Plans
I know that Eric already mentioned this when he mentioned how I mentioned it, but that I didn’t mention it late enough, so he mentioned it plus mentioning the fact that I mentioned a different thing that I did done mention, butttt, Signs of Carcosa! (Half way through that sentence I just kind of wanted to see how many times I could use the word ‘mention’)
Tomorrow the adapter comes and we get to watch Infinity War. Friday Signs of Carcosa comes and we get to stare at it until Saturday, plus we get to play more Splatoon 2 (hopefully). And Saturday we get to play Pandemic and Eldritch Horror. I’m excited. I don’t know if the way I phrased any of that made it seem that way, but, yeah.
I have two finals next week. I’m definitely not excited for that.
I’ll make sure to report tomorrow on adapter stuff and Infinity War.

Adapters, Pandemics, Horrors, Legacies, Monies
(The word 'monies' looks so weird)
Welp, I bought another ethernet adapter that will be arriving in a couple days. I really hope this one works. The other one didn’t have a return policy and since it didn’t work that kind of sucked. I know this one will connect to the Switch (the other one didn’t at all), but the question is if it will increase the NAT type. I really really hope it does.
We got Pandemic Legacy: Season 2, as Eric mentioned in his post. I’m excited. I’m excited for Saturday. I just wish that I had more money to get more games. Specifically Eldritch Horror expansions. For some reason that game has been giving me a kick as of recently, and I want to play it more with some new content. (So, the story goes: Eric and I have played 7 or so games of Eldritch as of the past week or so. We’ve lost all but one of them. Yep. We’re apparently trash at that game.)
Speaking of Eldritch Horror giving me a kick recently, I need to update my board game list soon. Normally I’ve been updating lists on the same day that I post something (and I may or may not do that today with the board game list), but I should probably just start doing them on off days too to make it simpler on myself.
I want to play all the legacy games. Gloomhaven is a legacy game? I didn’t know that until the other day. Risk Legacy, Charterstone, Gloomhaven, maybe even replay Pandemic Season 1 or SeaFall.
In order to do that, money is required. (and other things, such as people to play with, but) Which means I want a job. I’m way too busy to get one now, but right as summer starts I’ll get one.
