You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Wow. I could actually help a lot with this check. Figures.
Yeah, this one's actually in my colours for once. Was looking forward to playing something.

I'm thinking I can scout the crisis or destination deck.

I think Apollo has been hitting the old mans stash.
(psst. By "up to bat" I mean, what do you want to play into the crisis card check?)

move out and draw fire
We finally tried Dominion last night. I can see why people like it. As it was our first game, it took somewhat longer than the 30 minutes it claims to take, but once you get the hang of it, it plays pretty fast.
I treated it like Magic:The Gathering and tried to figure out how to chain combinations, which put me way ahead by the midgame...but the DH played it like Puerto Rico and ultimately won. I think we'll try some other variants; I like that it's so flexible.

I like that it's so flexible.
I've only played it a couple of times with the starter set of categories, but I like that you only use some of them and look forward to trying out new combinations.

Illigitimi non carborundum
I unfortunately had a bad experience playing Dominion. I think however it was less the ruleset and more that there was a player "teaching" me how to play who kept yelling at me that I was playing the wrong cards (when I wasn't) and got impatient with me when I asked for rules repetitions (it was my first game, and it was with 4 veteran players and me).
I haven't felt the urge to try it again, unfortunately.
