Best/worst one the other night was:

________: Good to the last drop.

The winner?

"The Blood of Christ."

I wish mine were that organized.

JL, I did get to play Tokaido on the 4th. It was fun but I had trouble remembering what did what. Some of the colors were too similar (though we were under very yellow lights) and the icons seemed tiny.

I had trouble telling the rice paddy panorama spaces from the farms at first. Did you enjoy it otherwise though? I find it really different from just about anything else, and I have also found that the character of the game changes depending on who you play with.

I thought I'd already posted this, but ACap, where is that photo from?

I really need to figure out how to have a chance to play that game. I am sure I would be awesome at telling rice paddies from farms.

I did really poorly but I enjoyed it. I think I picked the wrong role card.

Have you played Egizia? It has a similar move as far as you want mechanic.

How did I miss this reply? I ended up just passing through; things got derailed and we ended up shifting our departure and arrival days by one so it fucked our itinerary a bit. But I'll let you know if I'm heading up that way again any time soon.

No, I think she decided against that.
