Title: Hola everyone
Post by: Wingnut on May 02, 2012, 03:56:59 am
I guess I should start with that since I am the hola hf greeting guy on isotropic.

Other than that, I am another that lives in SoCal. I play a wide variety of games (current favorites other than Dominion are Agricola, Small World and Citadels though my all-time favorite game is Wizard) and have since my time in college at Auburn.

Favorite Card: Monument (for now)

Here on the forum I post every so often when in the mood but tend to lurk quite a bit. I also won the Kingdom Design Challenge and since I had all the sets I sent the Base set to my parents (they already had Intrigue).

I'm happy to play with anyone here and for those in SoCal who might be interested in any sort of games, you should come play IRL with my group. We play something (The current favorites, Dominion, 7 Wonders and Thunderstone right now) most Friday nights late into the night.

Welcome to the forum. Why do you like Monument?

Monument is my favorite card because it is so simple but changes most games it is in. I also like playing it all the time just to see what people do to counter (if anything) like on these three games:

As for it being in the winning kingdom, it was a card I liked, but Governor was my favorite at that point (I still like Governor, but less so as some others have figured out how to play it. I feel like I had a good handle on the card early on).
