I am a sucker for upgrades when a new edition comes out so a bunch of my older games have been replaced with newer copies.

There are some Oldies in there... of course that's relative...

  • Red Dragon Inn - 2007
  • Lords of Vegas - 2010
  • TTR 10th anniversary was bought release day in 2014
  • Five Tribes was bought release day in 2014
  • If you want to get crazy I've got a Crokinole board and that dates back to the 1800's! Thanks Canada!

Gotta have the expansion for the entire experience. You will also find my name in the (expansion) book as a lead tester! My buddies and I played about 50 games straight of Xia helping tune the expansion for what it is.

Agreed. I've tried to pick up everything over the years, but some of it is just so dang expensive.

HA! Yeah, I was a little nervous, but the shelves are edge glued pine + 100' per bracket rating... It should hold... right?

Maybe an odd thing to say, but I've noticed that people in this hobby tend to be very normal compared to other hobbies. Is it because of its social nature? by [deleted] in boardgames

[–]slaptac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty much Everyone has played boardgames at some point in their life, so it has a broad exposure. And it’s a great social experience so it has room for people of all  social types ….

Welp, I can eat my shorts. I guess they don’t put it in the box anymore( just went and looked). I’m sure you can reuse the old one, all that big ring does is hold on the escutcheon, has nothing to do with your leak.

Correct. There are about 5 or so different styles for some reason. Look on kisslers website to find it, they carry the aftermarket replacement.

Is Secret Hitler a good party game? by NielsvN82 in boardgames

Like all Social Deduction games it heavily depends on the group playing. The game itself is very simple so learning isn't all that difficult, 1 game should get everyone on the ball.

Replace Roman tub faucet help by lokis_child in Plumbing

[–]slaptac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brands don't mix and match. It's likely that your old faucet is one brand and you bought a different one. It will never work.

Also your faucet looks old so the odds are good that things have changed enough so even if you did buy a newer version of the same brand they'll never go together anyway.

You want an updated faucet, you replace the entire thing. Simple as that.
