Meanwhile, this is what I have been/am working on:
Just trying things out here ...
* [[Feature Topics|Feature Topic]] categorisation - I'm happy with [[:Category:List]] and [[:Category:Questions]].<br>[[:Category:Convention]] and [[:Category:Player Behaviour]] started but still need significant work.<br>[[:Category:Look Forward]], [[:Category:Look Back]], [[:Category:Deep Dive]], [[:Category:Hobby]] and [[:Category:Game Design]] still to be worked through. Mostly though [[User:Neilan|Neilan]] just needs to apply the [[Talk:Feature Topics|categories for all the episodes]]! ;)
* [[Transcript_089]] started ... ([[Transcript_001]] complete.)
* [[Listener mentions]] - intended as a better location for such things as opposed to using [[Episode_Notes]] which (I think) should be more BGB Tank & Content focussed ...
* Identify the first mention of "between the sheets" for [[:Category:Questions#between_the_sheets|Q&A]]
* [[Exit: The Game]] series - intend to extend this, to at least the extent that [[Oink Games]] has been extended.<br>'''Notes''': Neilan has played 6 as of [[Episode 21]] and recommends 2 players as the optimal player count. He and {{Kellen}} agree that Abandoned Cabin is generally considered the best one.<br>

Kellen: Thanks so much for checking out the Board Game Barrage podcast.
Just trying things out here:


Mark: The audio quality improves drastically starting with episode number 8.
Episode count: {{PAGESINCATEGORY: Episode }}


Neilan: So feel free to skip ahead but these episodes are pretty good too.
Feature Topic tag count: {{PAGESINCATEGORY: Feature Topic }}


Mark: Beautiful! One take. That's one take ...

[[File:episode_004.jpg|400px]]<br>
Kellen: Hi guys and welcome to the first ever episode of the Board Game Barrage podcast. Board Game Barrage started as an Instagram account and quickly morphed into a website where we do reviews and previews on games and games that are coming to Kickstarter and sort of just talk about the industry in general. My name is Kellen. If you've ever seen any content on the site from a Red Tank, that is me. I'm excited to be joined tonight by my co-hosts Mark and Neilan. Why don't you guys introduce yourselves and sort of talk about your gaming tastes?
[[File:episode_005.jpg|400px]]<br>
 
[[File:episode_006.jpg|400px]]<br>
Neilan: Sure, I'm Neilan, hi everyone. If you see anything from the website with an Orange Tank, that's me. My tastes I think lean towards, more sort of like heavy Euro puzzly games. I feel like multiplayer solitaire is something that's often thrown around as a bad word but I'm sort of into them. But also social deduction games I like a lot. Yeah. Mark?
[[File:episode_007.jpg|400px]]<br>
 
[[File:episode_008.jpg|400px]]<br>
Mark: If you see anything on the website from the Green Tank that's me. I consider myself sort of an omni-gamer, I'll play anything. Anything from real light easy to explain and play party games to really heavy Euros or economic games or Splotters and stuff like that so I can play, I'm happy to play, sort of anything in the spectrum.
[[File:episode_009.jpg|400px]]<br>
 
[[File:episode_010.jpg|400px]]<br>
Kellen: Cool. And I am mostly a social gamer I woulld say. I think I see games as sort of a social construct or a way to explore your friends and your relationship with them. That doesn't mean just social deduction games but it means games that are highly interactive sort of the opposite of multiplayer solitaie; If I wanted to do a spreadsheet I'd do it at work.
[[File:episode_011.jpg|400px]]<br>
So, why don't we go ahead and get started talking about some games that we've been playing recently. I'll just get us started with a new social deduction game that I've been really enjoying recently called When I Dream. When I Dream is a game where one player has a sleep mask on. So the game actually comes with a sleep mask and you put that on and everyone at the table is trying to get you to guess the word; Let's say the word is "forest". You'll go around the table and everyone will be giving one word clues to try to direct you towards that word, "forest". So you might hear, "trees", "green", "land" or what have you and you get to make one guess and if you're wrong you move on and if you're right you get that right. That may sound really pedestrian but what actually makes the game so great is that half the table is trying to get you to guess the word wrong, half the table is trying to get you to guess the word right and then some portion is actually trying to flip back and forth for you to guess it right and wrong. So you can imaging what that feels like; You have this sleep mask ...
[[File:episode_012.jpg|400px]]<br>
 
[[File:episode_013.jpg|400px]]<br>
Mark: It feels very, very bad.
[[File:episode_014.jpg|400px]]<br>
 
[[File:episode_015.jpg|400px]]<br>
Kellen: Confusing?
[[File:episode_016.jpg|400px]]<br>
 
[[File:episode_017.jpg|400px]]<br>
Neilan: Yeah.
[[File:episode_018.jpg|400px]]<br>
 
[[File:episode_019.jpg|400px]]<br>
Mark: Yeah.
[[File:episode_020.jpg|400px]]<br>
 
[[File:episode_021.jpg|400px]]<br>
Neilan: One of my favourite memories of when we played this most recently is. So there's a table of like 6 or 7 of us and I think the word is something like "toast" and we just got into this great segment, the three of us, of like "appliance", "electrical", "power tools" ... It's like, it worked and it was amazing.
[[File:episode_022.jpg|400px]]<br>
 
[[File:episode_023.jpg|400px]]<br>
Kellen: Yeah, essentially what happens is someone will give the clue "live, the next person will give the clue "dead" and then everyone will start laughing."

Board Game me

I decided to "become a board gamer" in December 2019 having been a keen player of games for much of my life but unaware of the existence, success and diversity of modern board gaming. In 2020, I found the Board Game Barrage podcast in February and the discord in April. The podcast and discord community were my surrogate game group until early 2021 when I setup a very small discord made up of some of the UK BGB fans I'd met the previous year. By early 2022 I had been going to a couple of local, public game nights regularly enough to form a private group and we've been gamng most weeks since.

I'm using the BGB wiki as an opportunity to learn the wiki editing skill set, to express my appreciation for the Board Game Barrage podcast and community and hopefully to contribute to it.

I'm keen to get involved in any BGB wiki ideas that other community members are working on so, if that's you, do get in touch. Meanwhile, this is what I have been/am working on:

plain text from BGG: The full, English language, series[1] is as follows:
(according to Board Game Geek as of July 2021)

  • Exit: The Game – Dead Man on the Orient Express (2017)
  • Exit: The Game – Kidnapped in Fortune City (2021)
  • Exit: The Game – The Abandoned Cabin (2016)
  • Exit: The Game – The Catacombs of Horror (2018)
