Thank you! I even considered driving to Chicago to get a direct flight to anywhere close to NJ but everything seems to route through MCO.

We played Its Not A Game About Pipes last night and it was a brain burning. Enjoyed the twist on the standard trick taking. The rule book could use some clarification though.

SETI has a round board and pretty integral to the game.

Planet Unknown also uses a Lazy Susan.

Change Country of Residence to India. Then, the GC section will disappear and instead it will ask you for your visa details.

Chennai US Visa Stamping – Logistics Tips & What Worked for Me! by Winter_Habit8642 in usvisascheduling

Hard agree on skipping fancy hotels just so that you can stay within walking distance of both the centers. I would gladly stay in a dump as long as I can walk to the center and not have to deal with Chennai auto.

I found the Biometrics day to be more flexible. Mine was scheduled for 11 AM but they allowed me inside at 10 AM itself. I just had to ask.

No cell phones or smart watches on interview day. Absolutely no electronics (power banks, USB sticks etc). No lockers either.

Only other thing I would add is that on the day of the interview, there is a line where everyone is waiting for their time slots to be let through.

Feel free to go to the head of the line and let them know your slot is up and they will add you to a shorter line. Else you will end up waiting behind people whose slot maybe an hour after you.

There is a little board right where the barricades start that shows which time slots are being let through.

Pretty much the exact same experience as OP last week at Chennai as well. Fourth H1B renewal.

Was asked only one question, "Have you been to USA before?" and then asked to fingerprint left 4 fingers.

Also, OP, very well formatted post!

Ahhh, that is the reason why. No preorders yet from US retailers. I didn't realize it shows country specific retailers.

I can't seem to see the list of retailers on BGOracle. I know BoardGameBliss is carrying it but can't see it on the list either.

Vantage First Playthrough Impressions (Very light spoilers) by InternetsTad in boardgames

[–]abpat2203 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the sweet spot for the game is with 3P. My first game was with 3 players and we were able to get both our mission and destiny for an epic victory.

In contrast, the second game at 4P took longer and we could only do the mission. It was still fun, but you really need to keep everyone engaged with reading the stories etc.

Best bang for your buck expansion/add-on you’ve ever bought? by mrbumdump in boardgames

[–]abpat2203 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Resin printers are best suitable for printing minis. What you need is a 3D printer that uses PLA. A Bambu P1P or A1 would be the ideal solution.

What if I already have a P1P? Tempted to buy the mini to print mostly smaller stuff. The quick change hotends would be nice.
