New Year, New In Progress Chart

Sure, let’s add the 1947 49ers replay, and put the 1967 Warriors replay back on the schedule.

Stay tuned!

1971: Giants Replay, Game 15

While I did play a game from 1917 on New Years Day, I have a few more games from that day (April 17, 1917)  to get through before posting the daily scores.

Technically that was the first game I played in 2020, though this is the first result that I’m posting.

Final from Candlestick Park:

Juan Marichal got shelled, and the bullpen didn’t fare any better.

Current

Around my workstation/table top play area are the following games, waiting to be played.

  • SSG Basketball
  • Net Results Soccer
  • Glory Days Boxing
  • Face to the Mat
  • B25 – Prince of the Skies

More hours in the day, or an extra day in the weekend.

I’ll get to all of them, along with the baseball and football and racing and hockey games.

Stay tuned!

Dice vs. Cards

I think I found a possible reason why I can’t seem to wrap my head around Inside the Paint and Inside the Crease basketball and hockey games.  And it’s dumb.

Both of those games use a fast action card (FAC) system as opposed to dice.  I like rolling dice more than flipping cards.

This may be why I’ve found Glory Days Boxing more fun to play, for me, than Title Bout II, which also uses a FAC system.

And I was able to grasp the basics of SSG basketball because of it’s dice roll mechanic similar to Payoff Pitch Baseball.  I’ve tried using the FACs for Payoff Pitch, but always find myself reverting back to using dice.

I was never a big Statis Pro Baseball gamer because of the cards.

I did pull out Statis Pro Basketball this morning, and may try to play a game to see if this reasoning holds water or not.

In Progress, Revision to the Revised Revision of the Revision

The main change is putting the 1967 Warriors on hold, along with the 1988 Mets (revisited) replay.  I anticipate playing a soccer game with PSV soon, and hopefully starting basketball and hockey in the coming weeks.

Stay tuned!
