Lazy Saturday Morning in Ithaca

[da]

We're at lee_ellen and flydi's. melted_snowball already wrote about his clothing, Wegmans, and such. I miss our friends.

Killer Bunnies is a great game. The most novel bit is that you have to set up two moves in advance, and things change pretty quickly. So, say, unleashing a Small Black Hole (which wipes out most bunnies in play) then doing a replay on it to mop up the remaining ones, will make everyone lose a turn or two as their previous strategies go all to pot. Heh, heh. Even still, the game went to flydi in the end, because I wasn't able to grab the last free carrot and end the game before everyone else got new bunnies into play. Great game.

The rest of the morning is likely to be lazy, with a stroll on the Commons. After lunch we're playing games with a small group and then I'm taking d. out to dinner at Maxie's Supper Club on a birthday date.

I have to say that I didn't really like Killer Bunnies. Part of it may have been that the rules explanation we got was a little disorganized, but for the most part I had issues with the lottery aspect. Like, there just didn't seem to be enough of a connection between what you do and the outcome of the game. Given lots of other luck-driven elements, I was left pretty unsatisfied by the level of randomness. I did like the move sequencing part.
