Fifty-Three Pounds

Well, someone else measured that, but I can believe it.

And it's actually 41 pounds and 12 pounds as two distinct things, not one thing. Or perhaps its 23 things grouped into two things.

Some are tiny (2"x2"x1"), some are large (23"x12"x4.5"), most are somewhere in the middle. Together, it's big enough to take up most of the chaise the cats (especially Lightning) like to think of as their own.

But, in total, it's 53 pounds.

Really.

Yes, I received my monster order from FunAgain Games. The weight comes from FedEx's tracking info on the two big boxes they all came in.

And yes, I did probably go overboard.

Guess what I'll be doing this weekend?

[Update: Here's the list of titles...

  • Alexandros
  • Arena Maximus
  • Blood Feud in New York
  • Bootleggers
  • Carcassonne: King & Scout (that's the 2"x2"x1" package)
  • Carcassonne: The City (with its very cool, albeit lightweight, wooden box)
  • Colossal Arena (a new edition of Titan: The Arena, a Knizia fave)
  • Einfach Genial
  • Fearsome Floors
  • Fifth Avenue
  • Gloom (yeah, the one with the transparent playing cards by the Eberron guy)
  • Heart of Africa
  • Knock! Knock!
  • Munchkin Fu 2: Monky Business
  • Naval Battles
  • Puerto Rico expansion
  • Senator
  • Shakespeare: The Bard Game
  • Slow Freight
  • The Count of Carcassonne
  • Twilight Imperium 3rd Edition (the big 23"x12"x4.5" box)
  • Warcraft: The Board Game Expansion Set (word is it actually makes the game worth playing!)
  • Witch Hunt

Just so it's recorded somewhere... I may have comments once I've examined these in detail]

Has it been mentioned that you're quite mad?

It has been proposed as a working theory.
