I have cards coming today and I'm about to break the Fedex website refreshing it over and over.

Pillars is an all-time favorite of mine, and both Yspahan and Thurn are great too. My old game group played Blue Moon City to death, so I'm sort of meh on it now.

Yeah, I totally skipped one occurrence of the word "current" in your original post. I think at this point I largely concur that this current cover concept is no longer... current.

There's a whole acoustic station on satellite radio that frequently has recent popular songs being covered by moderately popular acoustic artists.

I don't know if I'd call it significant, but I know Dolly Parton does a lot of covers *with* the original artists. Ghost does a ton of covers, but I guess they're mostly just big in Sweden. Disturbed has done a fair number of covers, all excellent...

lol Absolutely. And no worries that toucan't play that game. (I'll see myself out now. 😅)

That's an amazing bird! I'm wondering how many players it'll support. Would you say... toucan play that game?

Poker-sized cards are pretty small, but bridge-sized cards could be miles long.

"This event was REALLY POPULAR last year. Possibly too popular?"

"However, this will work best if people do not arrive until after the event's start time, 7PM."

The crowd at 6:45PM:
a crowd of people are watching a band perform

Two players is one of my favorite ways to play it! You get this back-and-forth dynamic of needing to manipulate the monster scariness to immediately end the round right after you hit your bid while your opponent's under theirs. I especially enjoy it with the special powers.

Fingers crossed for you.

There are too many games, too many *good* games, and even still too many *great* games for me to play all but a tiny selection more than once. That said, the average game in my collection has probably been played 0.5 times, so I'm certainly contributing to this unfortunate data point.

At first, I thought maybe Tony Danza fronted a band in the 80s, but I was pretty sure "Who's the Boss?" ran into the 90s. Then I got a text reminder for my annual physical and I felt silly for not getting it sooner.
