New to Me - January 2024

New to Me #boardgames - January 2024 @thing12games @white_goblin @_dailymagic_ @BoardAndDice @Quinedgames @FarOffGames @Zmangames_ @Funforge @Helvetiq @pegasusspiele

It’s the first month of the year! And it’s also almost the end of February. Yes, it took so much energy to get my Top 50 games played of all time done, along with getting sick recently, that we’re into the last week of February and I still haven’t talked about the “new to me” games that I played in January! I know, right? With OrcaCon in January, I knew that this would be a long post. I did…

Tabletop Tuesday: Gen Con Wrap Up

Get ready...it's a LONG post today, because we have a LOT to talk about. Gen Con was an incredible four days of gaming and geekery and we have a lot to say about our experience. Don't worry, there's lots of photos in the post too.

Hey all, Sam and David here. Okay, this might end up being a bit long. Well, at least it’s certainly going to be a whole bunch of photos, so I don’t think we’re going to take too long with the intro section. We’ve tried for the most part to divide things up day by day at Gen Con (with the exception of the Writer’s Symposium photo dump). It was a jam-packed four days of gaming and geekery and…

Here’s the last of the stickers. Even though the gargoyle was a pain to trace, it’s so cute. Although I think there is a different Disney characters who suits this club more.

Teaching Resources I Use as a Sub

I think substitute teaching is a good way to make extra money even if you don't plan on becoming a teacher, so I wanted to share some things that help me :)

Classroom Screen - I use this every time I sub (unless a smartboard isn't available for whatever reason), it has lots of little widgets for classroom management and communication

Teachers Pay Teachers - pre-made activities for students to do in case you need something extra, free and paid options

Stedi Bonus Activities - more activities, these are all free and geared toward substitutes (the main site offers paid training courses, I don't recommend them as someone who was able to do a course for free, they were very basic and not all the advice was good)

cK-12: free grade school level textbooks, useful for short, additional readings (I wouldn't trust the AI tutor thing)

Read Think Write Interactives - these are a bunch of charts that students can fill out on their computers, or you could fill one out together on a smart board based on what was learned in class

Boom Learning - more interactives, these are more focused activities rather than templates

CNN10 - daily 10 minute news clips, can be used to fill time

Class Dojo - classroom management system that uses points that can be earned or lost, this is difficult to implement from the perspective of a sub since you can't import class lists, but it may be useful to use numbers and reset points at the end of the day

most of these are unnecessary unless you're working with a very bare bones lesson plan or are subbing long term, but I can't recommend classroom screen enough

next are some useful youtube video genres worth keeping in mind (always remember to vet anything you want to show ahead of time)

multi-hour long relaxing music - good for background noise during quiet work, I don't recommend music with lyrics or recognizable instrumentals such as movie soundtracks and video game music because they may end up amping up students instead

mario run - these are like fun guided exercise videos, short ones are good for brain breaks and longer ones are good for when you have to have recess inside (some classes may not be able to handle the excitement, make volume expectations clear before starting)

animals in action - I've used like snake and spider videos as rewards for good behavior, kids love it

and lastly, some things I keep in my bag

clipboard with compartment - I keep school maps, extra paper, mental health crisis numbers, and even my resume inside and I'll clip attendance sheets and lesson plans on top of it

fidgets for students to borrow

prizes - mini erasers and stickers are popular and relatively cheap

dice, playing cards, flashcards - extra, tangible activities (the dice and playing cards are for randomly picking numbers to add subtract multiply etc.)

ok that's all bye

How do you make a board game party fun?

There's something magical about the clatter of dice, the shuffle of cards, and the laughter that fills the room during a board game party. Elevate your game night from enjoyable to unforgettable with these tips on making your board game party the talk of the town.

Diverse Game Selection: Cater to various tastes by providing a diverse selection of board games. Include classics like Monopoly and Scrabble, strategic games like Settlers of Catan, and party favorites like Codenames. This ensures there's something for everyone.

Create Game Zones: Divide your gaming space into different zones based on game types. This allows guests to choose games that suit their preferences and provides a dynamic atmosphere. Consider having a "Strategy Zone" and a "Party Zone" for different gaming experiences.

Themed Decorations: Amp up the excitement by incorporating a theme into your party decorations. Whether it's a specific game theme or a general board game ambiance, thematic decorations add a touch of fun and creativity to the party.

Comfort is Key: Ensure your gaming area is comfortable with ample seating and good lighting. Dim the lights for a cozy atmosphere, and provide cushions and blankets for those intense game moments. Comfortable guests are happy guests.

Game Night Snacks: Elevate your snacks to match the theme or mood of the games. Finger foods, popcorn, and a variety of dips are easy to handle while playing. Consider a DIY pizza station or a candy buffet for added enjoyment.

Host Mini Tournaments: Infuse some healthy competition by hosting mini-tournaments with small prizes for winners. This adds an extra layer of excitement and encourages friendly rivalry among your guests.

Background Music: Set the mood with a curated playlist of background music. Choose tunes that complement the energy of your game night, whether it's upbeat tracks for party games or more mellow sounds for strategy games.

Photobooth Fun: Create lasting memories with a board game-themed photo booth. Provide props related to popular games and encourage guests to capture the fun. Share the photos afterward as a delightful reminder of the evening.

With a thoughtfully curated game selection, cozy ambiance, and creative touches, your board game party is sure to be a hit. Remember, the key is to foster a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere where guests can immerse themselves in the joy of gaming. So, roll the dice, draw those cards, and let the games begin!

This is one of the funniest podcast episode's I have ever listened to. And yes I am incredibly biased for Brennan Lee Mulligan, the chemistry with Eric and Adal is also incredibly infectious and so fun. Also included my favorite part where Brennan explains what he loves so much about Dungeons and Dragons and it is beautiful.

Please enjoy!

***

Eric Silver: What is a perfect encapsulation of dungeons in dragons if someone asks you; "Well what's an example of why you love this thing so much?” What would you say?

Brennan Lee Mulligan: Within the game Dungeons and Dragons there is a marriage of three things going on; There is a dungeon master who has a world and a setting that they've populated with challenges and characters and some kind of plot line. There are players playing these heroic characters and then there are the dice and the dice are a neutral emotionless arbiter of random chance.

And especially for people like myself an adult who has a background in improv we're used to not having those things be adjudicated, right? It's just due to the collaboration ‘-and yes-ending’ of the partners on stage and that's beautiful. I love improv and I will always love improv and that perfect free form role playing.

What is beautiful about the dice is it means you are improvising with someone that you know doesn't care about you and it makes risk and heartbreak and danger…

Adal Rifai: I'm sorry. I'm crying. You, I never realized DnD is unrequited love. Unrequited love with the dice that don't care about you.

Brennan Lee Mulligan: In a moment where you're in an improv scene and something has the emotional resonance of hanging in the balance. You know that it's not really hanging in the balance because there's a human being across the stage from you who you trust who also wants the show to be as good as possible so it's never hanging in the balance. It's just the illusion of it hanging in the balance.

But there's a moment at a gaming table where everyone looks around and they all want the characters to survive. And instead of allowing any of the human beings who have invested months or years into the survival of that character to have a say in their ultimate fate, that fate is handed over to the inscrutable faceless prognostications of small plastic polyhedral dice-

Adal Rifai: Have that sewn into a pillow Eric! I want that I want that in a pillow by tomorrow.

Eric Silver: I'm flipping it (the pillow) over.

Brennan Lee Mulligan: -and as the dice rises into the air there is a moment of surrender to whatever is to come and the emotional resonance of being forced in a story of your own telling. To be ejected from the seat of the ‘storyteller’ and rocketed into the seat of audience member. To a tale of your own devising and to watch that plinkety-planking little D20 roll around. And in the moment of your most dire need you see two numbers; a two and a zero and when that Nat 20 comes up when, it was the only number that could save you the entire table erupts in a moment of triumph and joy and sweet relief. There is no high I have experienced in life like when the whole table knows it's what they need and somehow with only a five percent chance you all get it. Sweet, sweet joy.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tell me about it Podcast (background)

Adal Rifai is an eccentric billionaire who forces someone new every episode to share, argue, and defend the thing they love the most. He’s wrangled his audio butler Eric Silver to lead the contestant through a series of absurd challenges and games, all to gain points and get on the Most Interesting Thing High Score Board. Tell Me About It: the most fun podcast run by a multibillionaire.

Puzzles and Games With a Sacred Touch?

In today's blog post, we look at ways that the world of puzzles and games have crossed paths with religion!

In recent times, religion and the world of puzzles and games have crossed paths with sometimes surprising results. The film adaptation of The Da Vinci Code, a fairly puzzle-centric thriller, was widely denounced by members of the Catholic Church, and there was similar resistance, though less vocal, against the sequel film, Angels & Demons. And, of course, in the 1980s, the roleplaying game…

Why Dungeons and Dragons has Potential in Schools and Therapy

Dungeons and Dragons and other Tabletop Role-Playing Games (TTRPGs) have immense value in strengthening communication skills, building confidence, and becoming more empathetic. I am too lazy to look up articles and studies but I wanted to share my personal experience with D&D; If you know of a study or article feel free to leave it in a comment below so we can all learn!

Friday Night Shots - Old vs New?

Friday Night Shots - Old vs New? @garphillgames @gmtgames @_dailymagic_ @BoardAndDice

Welcome back! I know it’s been a couple of weeks, but I was taking some time putting a new bar up. With heated seats! I hope that works ok and isn’t a fire hazard. Oops. Anyway, have a seat and let me get you something to drink. We’ll just avoid that charred seat over there. I’ll also turn down the music. I’m not sure how that “Color Me Bad Greatest Hit” CD got in there, but I’ll have to…

WIP Wednesday - Aug 9

Hey all, Sam and David here again today. After the lengthy post from yesterday, I think we’re going to try our best to keep today’s post a little more short and sweet…because obviously most of the past week has been spent at Gen Con. Basically we’ll be covering anything that happened last Wednesday after we finished our last WIP Wednesday post, and then whatever has happened Monday and Tuesday…
