Accomplished today:

Bought a copy of Carcassonne so I can stop bugging Hugh for his.
Installed a new quiet power supply in Ed's computer (that mostly just makes it obvious that his CPU fan is a tad noisy).
Connected the Tivo back up to the internet (it's now spent 30 minutes downloading programme guide information).
Ordered MediaMVP (and looked into addons to make it even cooler)

Speaking of Carcassonne, guess where I was today?

What about the expansions? I've found that both 'Inns and Cathedrals' and 'Traders and Builders' really enhance the game. 'King and Scout' is amusing but some of the pieces have play-balance problems. I've not tried any of the others.

Carcassonne is probably the most popular longer game at our games night.

What PSU did you end up going with?

I've never heard of / played Carcassonne....


And have you considered the ultimate cooling case mod? (http://www.peteredge.orcon.net.nz/casepics.htm)

Yes, I AM aware that, without a decent heatsink, it isn't actually that cooling....

Carcasonne rocks! We have all the expansions we're aware off. I prefer Carcassone The Castle which limits growth of your community between players within defined castle walls and makes for much more aggressive and quick games. We'll be bringing all out boardgames with us when we move. Oh yes.
