The September monthly stats will go live on the last day of the month. I suppose they could have gone live now. It’s not as if I will have played any more games before October starts.
Being one of those glass half empty doom merchants I don’t think October will be a massive month for playing games.
October starts at the weekend with a D&D session. But after that my next bit of gaming will be the following Friday with the next Fenland Gamers session.
My next day off is a Monday when our hosts are not open. Plus I’ve not had much luck getting others interested in gaming on days I’m off. So even if they were open I don’t think I’d find others to game with.
That’s the drawback of my current job with my shifting days off during the week.
So far I’ve been lucky that I can make the Friday evening sessions.
It also makes it harder to arrange things. I should know three weeks in advance what my rota is. But at the moment I know what I’m working up to the end of next week and that’s it. I’m on lates for this and next week. Which I like working.
I do have a weeks holiday next month as well. I’m hoping to visit Nathan then. So that will be quality time together gaming.
But for the next five months I do have a week off each month, as until that week off I’ve only had one days holiday this year.
I was watching The Dice Tower Autumn Spectacular – Top 10 Horror Games last night.
It reminded me although I own them I still haven’t got Fury of Dracula nor Ghost Stories to the table. Plus The Others appeared on a couple of the lists, and now I want to get that back to the table.
The Others has the dubious distinction of putting me off ever backing or buying a CMoN game again. Or I should clarify it was the Kickstarter campaign CMoN ran for it and not the game itself (which I really enjoyed).
But one omission from the four top ten lists the Dice Tower contributors came up with for me was Gloom.
Which I have played once. But I really do need to get back to the table (especially now I have the fancy storage box, Gloomier, and Gloom Chronicles from the last Kickstarter) as I think there are others in Fenland Gamers that would also enjoy playing it.
10th October sees a World Mental Health Day.
I’m going to try and “celebrate” it with a post. I don’t know how the post will come out. That will all depend on the day I suppose.
That’s it for now. See you in the next post.
