2020 Game Play Overview

2020 Game Play Overview

4 more plays than in 2019, and an extra 50 hours of play. The extra time is mostly due to a weekly Gloomhaven game with my daughter and her husband, who relocated back to Brisbane at the start of 2019. Also, the Australian and Queensland governments did a pretty good job of handling COVID so we didn’t really have any lockdown time which kept family from visiting each others houses.

2019 – a Good Year for Gaming

2019 Stats Overview

I set myself 3 goals at the beginning of the year. The first was to play 365 games, to average more than 1 a day.

I might change that to a certain number of hours worth of game play for my 2020 resolution, to make it something to aim for. At read more

Revised New Years Resolution

Near the end of 2018, I replied in a New Years Resolution thread, saying that, in 2019, I wanted to complete the 10×10 challenge, (10 plays of 10 games) and have 250 game plays all up. I had just bought the BG Stats app, which could start tracking these things for me, and it seemed a feasible goal. 3 weeks into the new year, I’m going to modify that goal.

10 x 10 challenge
