So, Zac was in a bad mood last night and decided to stomp on my copy of Hotels that he was playing with, damaging one of the buildings for the first time in the 26 years I've owned it. :( I know it's not a big deal, but I'm still sad!

Hey guys - if there's anyone who actually reads this! The silence on here is because there hasn't been anything to tell. I've been really stressed and run-down lately so I haven't been to a games night in weeks. For the same reason I'm still struggling with what to do for Tabletop Day this year - I think I may have to go back to basics there. I certainly can't top last year, and I have to remind myself that I don't have to. I can't seem to get behind any of my ideas enough to move forward with them. Also, while my Tabletop Day events have never really been affected by the people who create and organise the whole idea, their focus this year is on game stores and promos rather than people's personal events and I guess it's just not very inspiring.
Something will be on though - tabletop day is about sharing board games with others - even if it's just a regular games night, so keep that date on your calendar (April 30), and I'll try to pull myself out of this funk. I am struggling to move forward and actually publicize my Tabletop Day plans (other than on here which is totally unofficial). I am hesitant for a few reasons.
a) The seats at these games are very limited, even if we have more playing than is ideal (both games are improved by a lower number of players). b) Both Tales and Arkham are divisive choices - people love or hate them. If there's a player who's just not getting into the game they might fall flat. c) I've been struggling a lot with my energy levels lately - I always have a massive gap between my motivation (usually high) and my actual energy (low), so I have to watch that I don't over-extend myself. Running both those games in a day will be exhausting. I kind of feel like the whole "tabletop experience" would be better as a themed game night. The reason I was keen on the idea was to introduce people to how cool it can be to tell an interactive story and have a laugh around a game. Anyway, I would like to get this sorted well in advance - April 30th is just under 4 weeks away, but at least you guys have a date, right? I guess I'll have a think about a possible alternative solution. |
