Man, if I had a live-in girlfriend, she'd be pissed at the loss of so much shoe space.
Anybody have any better storage solution ideas?
Ikea.

Fuck those Nordic fucks. And their meatball platters.
How many of them have actually been used for playing?

[Arbitrary]At least two turns with the recommended number of players.
At least five turns in solitaire play.[/Arbitrary]
:mmm:
Sadly i can only count about 12-15 of those that i own as well.
Neat, I also own at least half of those if not more.
I have a great suggestion for how to store all those. I happen to have plenty of extra space...
Of course, then they might get used, so perhaps that isn't the best solution for you.
Get some plastic tubs that fit the boxes well. You could than place a label on the outside of the tub as to what is inside. You could probably sort tubs by type of game inside (WWI, WWII, etc). It would take up less space and be less prone to accidents.

:yes: Walmart has the huge ones cheap.
use a standard bookshelf for the games you fondle regularly and store the rest in tubs.

I would never give them to an abusive home.
Cats take up too much space, I suggest a few bags and bricks.
Edit: Not to mention eating Heeresgruppe Nord
I had a cat destroy Omega's Carrier War. Never found the kido butai after she godzilla'ed the map.
Strange how you dan't have any modern classics like Catan, Puerto Rico or War of the Ring. I suppose most of the old timers in Languish aren't into post MTG games like Dominion.

Heh, the reason for the lack of them is that those games are simply impossible to play solitaire.

Also, I doubt Catan or Puerto Rico would appeal much to Seedy.
War of the Ring is a modern classic? Cool, I have a copy in my games cabinet.

I found this anniversary edition of Siedler with moulded and painted tiles and pieces for €400. Now I don't like the game and only play it when everybody else at the gaming club insists. But I wanted it, it was pretty.

You might want to move to West Virginia for that.

I play mine once a week, maybe once every two weeks, but never less than once a month. Sometimes I get in twice a week.

I have the same thing with roleplaying books. I have books for a couple of dozens of game systems I never played and will likely never play. :nerd:
