Aw. I wait for your advent calendar bluesky post every day.

Four days in a row is tradition, right? ...and Xmas is all about tradition 🥺

I hope Joana gets well soon 🤒

Thanks for asking ❤️

I'm still recovering. Every day I can sit a bit longer upright so I'm starting to play slightly longer games now but still one handed. Three weeks until I get rid of the shoulder sling and will be able to play normally.

Really cool! Looking forward to seeing what's behind the windows

Well done! What game was your 'X' game in the alphabet challenge?

When I did it, there weren't many games but I found 'X nimmt' which became a family favorite.

I'm gonna guess yours was 'Xylotar'?

I bought it this year at Essen Spiel.

Shortly after I returned home I broke my clavicle badly.

A Gentle Rain has been the perfect game to get me through my injury where I can't move much, get easily tired but need something to do during the day.

Thank you!

Nice.
Next on the bucket list: Play Hilo in Hilo?

Yes! The best!

I've sent you the file but I secretly hope you won't find the bug as I like having played more days than everyone else in the world 😂

More nosey questions 😁
I hope you had a good and smooth travel back? Did you book the two tickets (the self transfer) separately or with some online platform?

Weird question, but which airlines did you fly with and did you buy the journey from a single airline's website?

(for context: when I'm not playing board games I work in the airline industry and I'm always interested in connecting flights, especially those with great connections)

A few new ones, a few old ones and something in between

Hungry Monkey has the same elements too:

How was it? I am so excited and I hope I'll be able to get my hands on a copy at Spiel this Thursday.

Very interested to see the results or read the research paper once published

Will you be at Spiel?

Well, I guess I'll have to run fast :)

Yes. I've already signed up for it, but was wondering specifically for Essen pickups.

Do you know if it is possible to preorder?

I feel like a kid walking into a candy store for the first time. It's unbelievable how well this game fits me (my two favorite mechanisms, my favorite theme/second hobby, and a solo+multiplayer mode).
