FinDipCon
A reminder for those in Finland next weekend: it’s FinDipCon time! This year the event is held in Helsinki and features the fifth Finnish Diplomacy championship, a Blood Bowl tournament and other minor tournaments — I’m going to participate in the Web of Power tournament. And of course, lots of other games will be played…

Puolenkuun pelit
Finnish gamers might want to check out the Lahti-based game store Puolenkuun pelit. Their website has nice, bright colours and perhaps a bit annoying design, but they do have some good board games in stock (however, I don’t know about their level of service; I’d guess it’s decent, at least they seem to have some…

Academic game studies
I participated in an interesting meeting last Tuesday. It was the first meeting of a informal study group of game studies, organised by few friendly staff members of the university’s Hypermedia Laboratory.

Weekend games: Sunda to Sahul, Sticheln, Bakari
I had a nice weekend, when it comes to games. First game I played Friday was an old favourite, Battle Line. It’s always a blast, and I actually managed to win half of the six games I played during the weekend. But that wasn’t the main attraction. I desperately wanted to play Sunda to Sahul.…

Bingo!
Yes, I’ve grown old. Very old. I went to play Bingo last Saturday. My mother has started to play Bingo occasionally and she lured me with her and her partner, as we had an hour to waste before he had to leave for a trip. And guess what: it was actually fun! Of course, Bingo…

I’m back
Hi, I’m back from having a great weekend in Jyväskylä. I’ve got things to tell, about Sunda to Sahul and Bingo, but that’ll have to wait for a day or two, I’m a bit busy with school work right now.
