2017 was the first time I ever did a 10x10 and I learned a few things...the main thing is that a 10x10 (for me) is kind of an exercise in futility. Seriously. To be fair, I didn't make wise choices for my 10 games in 2017. They were all great games, and had I gotten all 10 plays in for them...fun would have been had in all 100 plays. But therein lies the problem. I chose games that were very difficult to get 10 plays in 10 times.

Let’s face it, this time of the year we see so many lists of great two-player couples games. Love is in the air and all that jazz. But hey! Not everyone is all fired up for a visit from Cupid! There are plenty of single people out there who would just assume forget Valentines Day exists. There are plenty of couples out there who could care less about St. Valentine’s special day as well. Who needs to spend their entire paycheck on roses that will die in a few days or a box of chocolate that will be marked
