German Boardgame Geek Test

October 21, 2002

I made the German Boardgame Geek Test today. My score was 35.46%, which means I’m not hopelessly geek yet. I obviously have to improve my score. Also, I have a new toy, a digital camera. So, expect game pictures sooner or later! I’ve set up a photo gallery script at my web site, so you’ll [...]
