hmmmmmm......
Total BB games played: 4476
BB games played by me:  about 4400...

Kindof skewing the results just a little... hehe
(and you wanted to know how to go from Landgraf to Furst in a month?  its all about the 4400 BB)

Clearly, we need Emerald and Go rooms...
Emerald will be in my Furst house soon (whenever they reset, or whatever needs to happen)

Go, Fuersten, TA, Sticheln, and Ligretto should all be coming.... at least that was my understanding??

Hello,

These new figures confirm what we thought in the previous month: we could use game rooms for TA and Fuersten. The new games Go, Sticheln and Emerald are doing quite well too (or even exceptionally well, for Emerald), but maybe the interest will fade a bit after novelty has gone.

I think we should set Fuersten and TA as our next purchases, which have proved quite solid in these rankings for a few months. Emerald is already covered by Alexfrog's house anyway, and Go or Sticheln should come next. By then, we may have another Fürst or two in our town, which would mean new houses too.

Ligretto is a special case, as I'm the main player in town, having played roughly 80% of the total this month (and 10 other % being Alexfrog trying to beat me ). I was thinking I could maybe have it in my house when I manage to get Fürst, depending on what other games we have managed to get by then.

PS: We shouldn't forget that other games may be coming soon (Medina, possibly others). Maybe they will be worth considering too.

[Alexfrog]

Yeah, Esterio is GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD at Ligretto.  

After he killed me at it 10 times, I thought I sucked...then I played a 3 player with 2 others and destroyed them....so Esterio is just REALLY good.

He claims there are others out there who beat him like that, but I dont believe him

Medina is a fantastic game. I'd like to see that one (provided the implementation is good).
