5 in 10, going for more

I surprised myself by not having more free time to update the blog after the end of the S2006 conference. And for starting again after the honeymoon was over. One week of going off from office on normal time (no not official knock-off time, just a reasonably early time). This Monday I have been forced into my first near-midnight knock-off. Oh well. But in the meantime, I have clocked 5 boardgaming sessions in 10 days, starting last-last Sunday. One gaming session every other day except for yesterday, which got shifted to today. Now can I stretch it to further... And I do need more. Have been pummeled left-right-centre in Settlers of Catan prior to the World Championship. I have managed to prove basically that the worst player around the circuit can become the national champion ;-/ Now to at least gain some insights after the pummelings ...
