Feb 09, 09 10:33 am — Well guys yesterday I posted my first piece as a blogger for the examiner.com and I thought you might be interested. My section is about board games and card games and the people who play them around Atlanta. I'll be writing 4-6 articles a week so if there is a game that you would like to hear about drop me a line and I'll try to play it and review it.

Here's the link if anyone is interested
I hope you enjoy it!

Thanks Zem!

Thanks. They ask us to keep our posts under 500 words because internet readers can be rather lazy. So I figured I'd leave a cliffhanger to make people want to come back.

So, can you make a podcast of your reviews so I don't have to read?

The first sounds like an Albanian card game, and the second is always fun. Specially when the girls gang up on the guys.

I've been debating whether it would be ok to review circle of death. I've played it four times in the last month or so and it would be really easy to describe in a blog. Could also be quite fun.

What do you guys think?

I don't think I would be qualified to write a board game blog if I wasn't a nerd. What else would you expect?

So?

Where's part 2?

The examiner may think that readers are lazy and want short articles, and that may be true to some extent, however readers are also IMPATIENT.
