Good week for me last week. Got in a lot of plays both online and in real life lol.

#The Castles of Burgundy - Finished up a couple games of this with a bunch of people on here. Came in last in one very close game against @R0land1199 @nwrex and @theDL and FINALLY won a game against @TK2187 @boardgamegumbo and @docker37. Love this game!

#Kahuna - @theDL already talked about inviting me to play this one on BGA. After reading the rules, I immediately knew it was going to be super cutthroat lol. He beat me pretty badly, but I still really enjoyed myself trying to figure out a way to make it not look so bad haha. I told a friend of mine about it and we played a game together on there too. I lost yet again, by more than my first play. Definitely not something Sarah would like so there's no way I'd ever be stupid enough to buy it haha.

#Kingdom Builder - Played this on BGA too as a couple other members have mentioned. I really suck at this game...that's about all I have to say about it..didn't get last though!

#Medina (second edition) - Was able to buy a copy of this and spent way too much time cleaning mold off all the pieces lol. Got my brother to play with me and it was just as hilarious to me in person as it was during my plays on BGA. I have no idea why this game makes me laugh, but it does. The fun we had was almost snatched away from me when I dropped one of the palace pieces on the floor and my brother's dog grabbed a hold of it. The crunching noise thankfully sounded way worse than the damage ended up being. Just have an orange palace piece now with a couple of bite marks lol.

#Project L - One of my previously unplayed games that I was able to break out with my brother. This moved suprisingly quick and was a lot of fun. Looking forward to playing more.

#Targi - Yet another previously unplayed game I suckered my brother into playing with me. I really have enjoyed my few plays of this on BGA, but in the physical form, I found it slightly less enjoyable. I think it has something to do with remembering to replace the cards after you take the resources from them. Maybe I'm just lazy or forgetful or both lol.

#Wingspan - My older brother was up this weekend for a family event and was willing to try a game with us. Of course Sarah and I had to introduce him to our favorite game. We played with the #Wingspan: Oceania Expansion which I feel really adds a lot to the game. He did pretty well for his first time playing and I think had we had more time to play again, he would have done a lot better. As a side note, this was our last play of this for our 10x5 challenge, though I'm positive we'll keep playing it throughout the year.

#Lost Ruins of Arnak - My meetup group had their first "heavy gaming" all day board gaming event in quite some time yesterday which I was really happy about. A guy in the group brought this and had never played so I taught it to both him and Sarah. There were a couple of minor things I realized we were doing wrong, most notably not sliding the artifact and item cards down between rounds. Still had a good time playing though. Took a bit longer than expected with Sarah getting some AP. She still said she liked it and would be down to play more. Good thing too since I own it haha.

#Barrage - We really tried to convince someone else to play this with us yesterday so we could get in a 3 or 4 player game. The hope was that I would get blocked at every turn and absolutely hate the experience. However, as it were, no one bit so we just played again at 2. Sarah tried desperately to get in my way but to no avail. I think instead it just set her back a turn or two which definitely didn't help her do well. She hates this so much that I think I'll have to get rid of it when our challenge is over whether I really want to or not...
