Exploring and celebrating the tabletop hobby
With my computer woes banished, for now, it's time to dust off this old chestnut and share what I've been up to for the past week. Then again, given that I've not done one of these in a while, it's really more than a month that we need to catch up on. I'm not going… Continue reading Hobby Update: It’s Been a While

A while back, there was a Triple Triad site called TripleTriadX. They were the second of the browser-based (rather than client-based) Triple Triad sites, and they represented my peak interest in Triple Triad. I was very much into this game. They were the first of the browser-based sites to add cards that were not from… Continue reading Triple Triad Cards: My Final Fantasy VI Deck

I run an RPG group for children. Well, we're a general tabletop gaming group, actually, but D&D is the current focus. For the past few years, we've mainly played board games with an occasional go at the D&D or Star Wars: Edge of the Empire starter sets thrown in. We've always hovered at between 3… Continue reading RPGs with Kids: So Much Fun
For the past two years I have compiled a lit of my top 50 tabletop games. I really enjoy making these lists as they make me really take a look at the games I've played this year and consider them on a number of different levels. As we approach November, when these lists are written,… Continue reading Looking Ahead to This Year’s Top 50
