Just a very very brief life update that acts as proof of life, and paper thin excuse for not posting.

The best excuse I can come up with for not posting is just plain tiredness.

I’ve finished nights now (yesterday). Which I think I’m going to miss!

They have been fun. The night actually went really fast. But the important bit was I was working with a great bunch of folks.

Heck we even got some gaming in during our breaks!

We haven’t been playing epic games of Twilight Imperium, or even light games that take an hour to play. Basically what would be called filler games by the board gaming community has been our jam. Something that can be played in half an hour, quick to setup and teach.

So we have played Bang!, Love Letter, and Batman Fluxx (with the house rule of if no winner after half an hour the game ends). Although we did also have a multiplayer game of Star Realms where two teams played against each other.

Plus! We have been playing a lot of Star Realms against each other using the app. I can only imagine the image we gave sitting around the table in the staff room engrossed in our phones not speaking to each other. However we are actually all taking our turns in the game against each other.

I now have a couple of days off so I’m hoping to get the next post about Portal finished (it’s about half written at the moment), play some games and tell you about that. Then it’s back to work for a day before having an early weekend (again), followed by more work.

I promised short and sweet, and this has been a bit longer than planned. Laters.
