Circa 2000: I open Tumblr, I am rudely reminded by self that this account was birth to channel the mental energy back to the world, as the attrition of oneās mind over mundane thoughts are.. āsometimesā .. painful.
Back to normal day to day English then, so daily posting isnāt something for me, I just donāt feel like spouting stuff online for the sake of it. But hereās something super interesting.. Board game, and people who play them.
I have been introducing board games back to the world, just like the Old Hunter did to me years back. Itās always fun to see how people gravitate towards one game or the other in ways I didnāt think would happen. Been introducing games to my muggle friends, Abhijeet and Rasika. Started with smaller party games like Llama and Viking See-Saw.. gradually going to Via Nebula from there and then stepping the heat a bit OrlĆ©ans, which surprisingly was a hit with them - Renuās choice worked here, I was worried about ruleās complexity. But they chewed through it like pros. The best part was the most unexpected, post game discussions with muggles.. that barely ever happens with new players. They were talking about randomness, and strategies- which was very satisfying.
So, mission success, now time to intro them to more genres and mechanisms. Fun times!
