When I heard the learn’d astronomer; When the proofs, the figures, were ranged in columns before me; When I was shown the charts and the diagrams, to add, divide, and measure them; When I, sitting, heard the astronomer, where he he lectured with
badge
much applause in the lecture-room, How soon, unaccountable, I became tired and sick; Till rising and gliding out, I wander’d off by myself, In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time, Look’d up in perfect silence at the stars. W.W.

I was going to donate to this anyway, but when I saw I could make the total 555 I was set. (Feel free to move it away, but for that one perfect moment, the numbers aligned for me)

The elf lord named Celeborn is indeed the origin of my name. The (accidental) misspelling keeps my username relatively unique!

The funny coincidence is that my college nickname during Quake games was Deathblow, so Ziilch's suggestion isn't too far off the mark.


I thought it was misspelled, but i was too lazy to google it and didn't want to be the bearer of mad news in case you hadn't realized the mistake. Now you've got me misspelling it too!

He was Galadriel's husband right?

Indeed he was, that lucky elf: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celeborn.

I've decided to take a different course though. Spurred by Joe's generosity I'm representing myself with the plate that was attached to the Voyager spacecraft. My parents actually worked on the programming for Voyager 2 (after its launch), and I've loved the concept of those machines since I was a kid. As an added bonus, it looks like a gold-plated Death Star.

Thanks Joe!

Oh well, I'm going to thumb this. Let's go for broke!
I've always wanted to propose to my gf of 9 years in Paris (I hope she doesn't look through my comments) but then again my life is always full of sudden changes of plans. If I win this, this will definitely be a sign of stop trying to achieve and go and shoot the moon instead!
Regardless thank you for this prize and if I don't win this, I would still want to come and visit you some day to support you!

Shoot why not. I wonder if there's english board games to play at this hotel, or will that Koine Greek finally come in handy?



Dear Walker,


I reassure that a greek who does not know enough english will find it hard to play here, as the vast majority of the games are in english language. But , I am sure that your Greek knowledge will always find a reason to come in handy...

6. Board Game: My First Monopoly [Average Rating:4.60 Unranked]

When I heard the learn’d astronomer; When the proofs, the figures, were ranged in columns before me; When I was shown the charts and the diagrams, to add, divide, and measure them; When I, sitting, heard the astronomer, where he he lectured with
badge
much applause in the lecture-room, How soon, unaccountable, I became tired and sick; Till rising and gliding out, I wander’d off by myself, In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time, Look’d up in perfect silence at the stars. W.W.

Let's get this started - great idea!

I love BGG because it is filled with creative, sharing people!

We're feeling a bit Christmasy at the moment and have decided to add a bit more to the package. Along with the core game and the first 3 expansions we've decided to add the 4th expansion, Rise of The Creator (the game is just so much better when this is added in) to the give away and also to add a nice shiny pair of chessex Dice of The Dead as well. Happy Zombie Hunting! zombie

13. Board Game: The Greatest Gift [Average Rating:10.00 Unranked]

When I heard the learn’d astronomer; When the proofs, the figures, were ranged in columns before me; When I was shown the charts and the diagrams, to add, divide, and measure them; When I, sitting, heard the astronomer, where he he lectured with
badge
much applause in the lecture-room, How soon, unaccountable, I became tired and sick; Till rising and gliding out, I wander’d off by myself, In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time, Look’d up in perfect silence at the stars. W.W.

Unfortunately, I forgot to get my badge in 2005 and there is no way to retrofit it :-(

How about a category for people who have nearly all of them, and has tried to make up for it ever since?

Sorry, I was traveling until yesterday, and I have a work backlog. I will do all of the drawings and announce the winners this weekend!

With all due respect, I sincerely hope that - barring emergency situations - she will not do that, because I know that a lot of BGGers (myself included) will have decided to deliberately not thumbsup this generous prize because of this

Please only thumb this entry if you will seriously consider taking a trip to use the prize.

Again, no offense meant, Andrew, just giving my $0.02.

It was sort of a joke, given the sad state of my Geekgold reserves at the time. However, that supporter bonus was unexpected and huge! Not to worry, no offense taken. You're entitled to your fractions of a loonie any day.

There's a pub here in Bath that has loads of paper money on the wall, including old Canadian $1 and $2 bills - quite cool!

Congrats to all the winners!!
