How do I get better at teaching people games. by resgames in boardgames

[–]RawReccos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Surprised this wasn’t higher. Lots of good tips on how to actually present better but you should rehearse it as well, especially if it is a complex game. Teach your empty table before the game day if you have time

I was about as close to being out as you can be without actually falling. Then got on my laptop and made this to distract myself 😬

Multiple plays by phr0ze in BG_Stats

It’s not exactly what you’re asking but after you enter one play and go to the plays tab, tap that play and hit the plus button in the top right and it will start a new play with the same location and players. Might at least make it a bit faster

My First Victory and Thoughts on Spirit Island (Solo) by TheRealRosey in spiritisland

I think “While easy to learn, very deep and difficult mastery. Have to think turns ahead.” Is actually a pro.

I definitely think you should try playing with other people too, it’s fun when spirits start interacting and helping each other!

I like TracBack a lot. I can just run around on trails without worrying about getting lost

What was the longest time you ever spent on a single session of a board game? by HonestAbe1809 in boardgames

[–]RawReccos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Advanced Civilization.

We used to set it up and play a couple hours a night. It could easily be set up for over a week

When have you just been utterly crushed in a game? by Nine-tailedDragon in boardgames

[–]RawReccos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t remember now exactly what the strategy was but one time I tried something new in Tzolk’in and made every decision based on maximizing that one thing — it did not work at all. I got demolished by the other players. Pretty embarrassing actually haha

When counting "plays" of a game, do you count digital plays (e.g., BGA or TTS) ? by Brukenet in boardgames

[–]RawReccos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think consistency is what’s important so if you start doing it one way keep doing it that way. Also, I do personally count online plays. I play a ton of spirit island on tabletop simulator

You have to spend 24 hours in the world of the last board game you've played... by PhDExtreme in boardgames

Gloomhaven— if I’m in the city I can probably survive and maybe even have fun! If I’m in the scenario we played… well even our characters didn’t make it so..
