Last night's #boardgames included Oink Games' Moving Wild, Just One and Hansa Teutonica. Moving Wild is a sweet drafting game similar to Sushi Go! and Forest Shuffle (I did poorly), distinguished mainly by its small size and graphic design. Just One is a light word guessing game - always fun. Hansa Teutonica's icons still baffle me. I went aggressively to get extra actions early and - in an incredibly rare event - actually won.

Some reflections on last week's #CTOCraftCon, and in particular the sensible conversations around AI usage in digital product teams - plus the empathy that was a big part of that. And then relating it to a social media kerfuffle about AI and #vim.

A tense and tricky online game of #PaxPamir 2nd edition, which - against the odds - I won. At almost 75% of the way through I was still on zero points and last in the dominant Russian coalition. But I managed to slow the other Russian-aligned players enough for the lone British-aligned player to eliminate the Russian dominance. Then I kept ahead on units in play, to gain most points in the final two scoring rounds. By way of reward, the British-aligned player came second.

The wonderful Numbsters is back in stock in the UK Button Shy online shop. My copy arrived today. A pretty, puzzly game and (unlike in this photo, which is for visual effect only) it takes up minimal table space. So ideal for playing on a teeny train tray-table thing, say.

Fabulous (and exhausting) weekend of playtesting #boardgames still at the prototype stage. All at #ProtospielOnline. Among other things I built a zoo, learned minor spells, fenced, and got be an intruder to a mainframe masquerading as one of the goodies. Wonderful people, great disussion of mechanics and more, and much fun.

#rememberthemilk currently unavailable for me. This is the first time[*] since I joined in 2008. On the one hand, that's great going. On the other hand I'm still struggling a bit as a result. Oddly, their status site says the key services are fine.
[*] That I can remember. But of course remembering things is a bit compromised right now.

Yesterday we played Tiny Towns for the first time. A lot of fun - easy to learn, entertaining to play, and top notch production values. Definitely recommended. #boardgmes

Being the CEO of a failed midsize bank isn't so bad, apparently.

First Republic's CEO got $9.2 million last year https://www.bankingdive.com/news/first-republic-executives-forgo-bonuses-vested-compensation-herbert-salary/645714/ Silicon Valley Bank's CEO got $9.9 million. Is that the market price for someone to send your bank into bankruptcy?
