best board game session ever

my quota of fun i think maxed out for the next month. its overflowing alrdy

i need to sit back and memorise what just happened. i believe it might be the most fun i've ever had since winter 2013.

today's board game session is the most epic in my life.

secret hitler. Best secret hitler game ever. It even triumphs the one last time. 3/3 fascists got confirmed as good guys. Total only 4 people confirmed good. And i was one of the fascists. and the best part is i got to deliver the kill stroke. The only confirmed good guy in the 4 who was actually good was chosen by me to be my chancellor in the final round. I drew 1 good card and 2 bad cards, threw away the good card and passed the 2 bad cards to him. He asked to veto it as the chancellor's power, having full confidence that i would support him as the president cos he was alrdy super confirmed i was good, as was the whole table, and cos i managed to act the whole way to give him the full experience. When i said: no, i think i like those 2 cards he totally collapsed. That look of shock was beyond awesome.

I dunno why, but i feel way more good that I gave him such a good game experience than any game victory ever. I pride myself of always doing my best to entertain, and that was ace. Its not always easy because I'm a competitive guy so if I'm losing i might forget to entertain, and even when i'm winning, i'm too excited about the victory so i forget about that part. But today my teammates were so strong they allowed me to focus completely on delivering the experience, and i love that i gave my buddy an experience to remember. If my teammates weren't so good there was no way i could have do that, in fact i suck as a bad guy in these kind of games and would probably have cost us the game. Its getting better though. There's no question that its easier to play as a good guy, so i'm discovering the secret already. its to reduce your effectiveness when your good. Arguing too hard and too earnestly when you're good will only mess you up when you are the bad guy next time.

Then fake artist next. I'm definitely going to make that game since all i need is a whiteboard and some markers. Its beyond sick. Especially the sick final round (word was sun). We laughed so hard and shouted so much that now i got stomach cramps and lost my voice. as usual. but completely worth it
