Ok, I will bite now. Nearly one year ago, the due date on the last contest occured. Should I ask about the current status, or forget all about the contest in...
Hello, I've just recently subscribed to this list after learning about this game system. I've made my own copy of the game to try it out and I'm liking it a...
... No idea.. But if you have some patience, you can make a nice set for yourself, which is what a bunch of people have done. I have provided a set of ...
I've just gotten an answer. Hopefully I'll soon complete the order... :) Just another question... I see that the piecepack website hasn't been updated since a...
Thanks, I've already built a set with a kind of plastic cardboard material (don't know the name) and am trying out the games with it. But I was thinking of...
Jorge, Howdy, and welcome to the group! I hope you will follow through and write up rules for a few of your game designs. If they're not quite "there" yet, you...
I doubt that anyone is planning any new contests since they're so far overdue with the results of the last contest. I suppose the demands of people's day jobs...
Hello, I've tried Vassal before, so I'll be trying out the piecepack module. Do people normally play online? Yesterday I tried out some 2 player games with my...
Hello, I had some inspiration tonight and created this solitary game. I've played twice and had fun, but I haven't really seen what layouts can come up, and...
Jorge, Yesterday, I printed and read your draft Climbing Man rules, and I also saw your VASSAL screen shot of a finished game on the wiki. It looks like a very...
Thanks for trying the game. I look forward to your comments :) I really didn't do any research about climbing board games, just suddenly remembered how much I...
Hello all, After about 2 weeks in this list, and a few days more since I learned about this wonderful system and started checking the wiki, there has been...
It really got me excited for the first couple of months after I learned about it. I made my own piecepack to play around with, but alas, I couldn't find the...
Jorge, I wouldn't say you're late. You're just between surges. A friend and I have been playing with the Piecepack mod via the VASSAL engine online. It's still...
Hi ... If I'm between surges, then it's all right :) ... I've also been thinking about making piecepacks and trying to get them into shops here in Spain. I...
I think there is a basic conflict in the Piecepack system. The system is interesting to gamer-types, especially because it provides an easy tool to create your...
Definitely, keep designing games. Eventually one will float to the surface and catch gamers' eyes. I also like the idea of designing suits related to the...
Hi, I see your point, but it can also be seen as a strength. Gamer types also play shorter/lighter games in some situations (between long sessions, or with non...
I have to say, this discussion has renewed my thinking about Piecepack. I haven't pulled it out in quite some time. I'll have to do that. Thanks Jorge! Craig...
Hi, ... Maybe a new kind of contest could be created by the community, one that uses some kind of voting system (in the wiki?) to decide the winner. This way...
Hi I'm happy with how it turned out. I used a very thick kind of recycled cardboard (very hard and quite heavy) for the tiles, and printed the simbols with a...
It would definitely be a blast. I have toyed with different suit ideas to fit for different game genres. It is fun to play with. My set ended up being ...
Maybe design a themed piecepack set? Like Sci-fi, or fantasy, or whatever... in a manner that all the games are still playable... but more suited to some of...
... I didn't comment on this before, but solitaires are a big plus for this system. Given the popularity of cards solitaries, this is one thing that could make...
