Thanks for all of your kind words! It's comments like that that help me keep going - it's the reward for the hard work.

(and to answer someone's question, no, that wasn't a video trick. I really did make myself blue.)

Nice parody of the Blue Men Group. By the way I saw their show in Vegas and came out slightly disappointed. The show was good, but I expected more from a ~$100 show in Vegas.

The best show I've ever seen is Peking Acrobats. They were better than the Cirque Du Soleil show I saw at Vegas (Zumanity) despite the fact that the latter had nude, sexy women. Ok Zumanity was really sexy but in terms of acrobatics the Peking group was more impressive.

Earlier today I watched the BGWS Episode....

Just a few hours ago I was watching the Blue Man Group, on their "HOW TO BE A MEGASTAR TOUR 2.0" in Charlotte!

So, I've been entertained by 4 Blue people today! :)

Thanks for setting up the fun coincidence for me today, Scott!


Yes, the concert was great. I've seen them last year on tour as well as their stage show in Vegas a few years ago, and loved the show each and every time.

Scott ... you crazy maniac, you destroyed monopoly cover! (by the way I am taking a part in a monopoly tournament which is kinda silly because monopoly is such a random game). I am really proud you did it ... maybe we could launch initiative where people send you monopoly boxes and you detonate them in front of camera. It would be a bit like these actions of destroying illegal software cds.

I have watched every episode (mahjong is the only exception) and I am always a bit nervous when next episode is not showing on term (like the last one).

You made me buy:
- power grid
- santiago
- ticket to ride
and you made me start thinking about starting another vlog, however I will start by writing some articles first in order to get some experience.

Keep up great work.

Stupid question: doesn't the puzzle in this segment have a more optimal solution? To wit:

Use the brown cards, add the grey card, sans special power, and voila, 5 grey. Keep your green and gold for another move.

Wern't the cards in the puzzle 2 browns, 1 green, 1 white and 1 gold?

I really liked the blue man group parody. I saw them in Vagas (3 or 4 years ago? wow, time flies) as well, and I thought it was the best show ever. But then, I don't see a lot of shows, and someone else paid for the $80+ tickets.

The best intro of the series so far :D and a brilliant review to cap it off!

That would make much more sense, then. I thought it was a 2point grey, not a 2 point white. Too similar a pair of shades...

The introduction will be remembered as a classic moment in boardgaming.

Right now, my schedule is every 2 weeks, usually on Friday. If I'm travelling, I might change that - do some earlier, and others later.

So, the next video is due this Friday.

Excellent review, Scott. I had seen this title in my FLGS, and passed, because I just was not all that intrigued by what I saw on the box. After watching your coverage, I immediately went out and picked it up, and we have really been enjoying it so far!

Your explanation of the rules was great! I felt like I could easily teach the game to others after watching your explanation, even though I had not played it myself. Very nicely done!

And yes, I did already follow the link to the FFG website to give them the appropriate feedback regarding your review. :cool:

Thanks, and keep the great reviews coming!

Scott, you are completely barmy. And you look a bit like Brian Blessed in Flash Gordon.

Very good show.
