Tras varios Especiales vamos con un programa en formato clásico. Arrancamos hablando de los errores de edición en los juegos de mesa. ¿Son tan frecuentes?¿Que tolerancia tenemos los jugones ante estos fallos?¿Que hacer si nuestro juego presenta un defecto? Trataremos de responder a estas y otras preguntas relacionadas con el tema. Continuamos hablando de la última compra de Asmodee, ese gigante de los juegos de mesa que ya no se sacia con adquirir editoriales y abre el abanico a canales de Youtube, cadenas de tiendas o plataformas de juego online. Detallamos la Historia de BoardGameArena y tratamos de desentrañar las implicaciones de la adquisición y el futuro de la compañía. Finalizamos, como es habitual, reseñando los títulos que hemos disfrutado en nuestras mesas de juego.

First I want to apologize for the lateness of the of this week's podcast. I know its only a day late, but I still hate being late for anything. Second, I want to apologize for the reason its late. My mic apparently started crapping out part way through the episode and didn't realize it until post production. I spent a lot of time trying to bandage up this episode with my level one editing skills and I'm afraid it shows. The quality isn't up to its usual quality. (Not saying the regular quality of my editing is wonderfully great! =)) So hopefully the content makes up for the lackluster audio quality. As soon as this is posted I'm hitting up Amazon to pick me up a new mic setup. Its been on my list, but wanted to upgrade my computer first to make editing a lot less painful. So, on with the show notes! We have a major announcement at the end of the podcast. We are teaming up with Artem Safarov for our first giveaway!! Here's the details: I'm excited to announce my co-host Jason Washburn of Talon Strikes and I's first giveaway will be during the weekend of GenCant 2015! For those not in the know, GenCant is the Unofficial Unconventional Convention that coincides with Gen Con. This will be during the weekend of July 30th - August 2nd. BUT! Doesn't mean you can't start preparing for it now! We are not alone in this endeavor. We've called on a couple of friends of the podcast to help us make this thing as big as possible.
