The Central MA gaming group continued to meet this year. We again played nine games together, which is one up from 2023. We debuted a new table setting, brought an old one back from retirement, and accomplished a full size playtest of a new rule set. We also managed to play most of a game of Intercept Orbit. Which is the first time in six years since we've tried that rule set.
I'm up 4 posts from last year but, still maintaining my "at least three posts per week" average for the twelfth year running. I made my 2,000 post in the middle of June this year. I'm estimating 3K posts to be roughly six years away. March of 2024 was my 12th anniversary of starting this blog.
I managed 122 reviews this year; 1 Zuru Max, 1 Mega Bloks, 3 Lazer Blocks, 4 Miniso, 4 Gundam Converge, 5 non-building block, 6 Brickcraft, 20 Clone, 17 Make-It Bricks, 5 non-building, 30 Lego, and 31 Block Tech. That comes out to an average of 10.2 per month. Which is the most reviews I've ever done in a year. It's also the first time I've reviewed more sets of a company other than Lego. I feel like Block Tech came storming out of the gates this year. I acknowledge that a fair amount of the sets I reviewed from them were back log ones but there were a ton of other sets they debuted. I also haven't touched any of the upscaled (upgraded?) Make-It Block sets that debuted late this year.
I did 3 War College and 12 Terrain Workshop posts this year. Which is a decrease in both. I wanted to pivot to more Terrain Workshop and War College posts this year but more interesting sets were released this year than last and maybe next year will be the year that we start talking about tactics and terrain in earnest.
I'm now at 1.47M views, which is roughly another 200K views since last year. I still have no idea when I'll break 2 million. Thank you to everyone for the continued readership. My Flickr stream is over 6 million views which I must thank everyone for as well.
I managed to attend PAX East this year, if only for a couple of hours. I want to try and organize a bigger con presence for 2025, make more of an effort to "show the flag".
Keep on gaming and I'll see you next year. :-)
