Listen "#162: Whining"
Episode Synopsis
No, not winning, that is emphatically not on the docket today.

Given that the hosts engage in this degenerate, despicable behaviour, this is very much an issue of do as we say, not as we say when whining. Perhaps this is more complicated than I first suspected.01:16 AYURIS: Sol: Last Days of a Star (Ryan Spangler & Sean Spangler, Elephant Laboratories, 2017)Games Played Last Week:03:55 -Root (Cole Wehrle, Leder Games, 2008)07:30 -Hard City (Adam Kwapiński & Marek Raczyński, Hexy Studio, 2020)12:09 -Tajuto (Reiner Knizia, Super Meeple, 2019)16:09 -Medici (Reiner Knizia, AMIGO, 1995)19:30 -The Search for Planet X (Matthew O'Malley & Ben Rosset, Renegade Game Studios, 2020)26:26 -Blackout: Hong Kong (Alexander Pfister, eggertspiele, 2018) 31:06 -The Shores of Tripoli (Kevin Bertram, Fort Circle Games, 2020)35:42 -Shadows: Amsterdam (Mathieu Aubert, Libellud, 2018)40:31 -Dice Forge (Régis Bonnessée, Libellud, 2017)News (and why it doesn't matter): 41:33 Joseph McCullough's Silver Bayonet43:55 Blacklist Games' Lasting Tales45:03 https://boardgamegeek.com/guild/3236, https://www.twitch.tv/soverywrongaboutgames46:02 "Lot" on Kickstarter--each game unique47:44 FlickFleet Box of Flicks 249:08 Topic: WhiningAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
