Another zombie report from one of the masters of the genre. Humorous, with just the right amount of gratuitous gore. Excellent!

Link to Report: The Adventurers - Season 1 Episode 2 (the Expendables)
Bad accents, treasure grabbing, giant man-crushing boulders...this report has it all. This geek does a terrific job of building tension throughout, and follows it up with a most amusing ending. Great work!

All you Arkham Horror fans, gather round for yet another tale of misery and woe! This is probably the single most popular title for thematically-rich reports on this site, and this is a great addition to the collection. Bravo!

The Session Reports You Have to Read Twice!

Set up a lot of the PBF framework for BSG, Runewars, Small World, The Devil's Castle. PBF in Gears of War, Death Angel, A Game of Thrones. Currently playing Twilight Struggle, Middle-Earth Quest and Eclipse on Vassal.
I'm anal about using the right terms to describe games and have posted an alternative glossary to the inconsistent sprawl in BGG's database and lexicon that is clear, accurate and simple. I care big time about my reviews, ratings and comments.
For a game I don't care much for, I sure do seem to give reports on it lots of awards! This is a masterful blend of narrative, strategy and insight into how the various players weaved their webs of deceit throughout the game. An entertaining read and one that ALMOST makes me want to play this again. Excellent job!

1st Place, and recipient of the Mozart Prize (3 POINTS):
They say these things... and they are all true!
It's not often that a report is told from the perspective of 1st person, but this geek does a great job of conjuring a storytelling narrative. I almost felt like a little child with his legs crossed, listening to the librarian regale us with tales of heroes past. Brilliant!
