So...BDK is leaving. AND...I am really starting to get in to the flow of it. It is much deeper than I gave it credit for. I am not thrilled with the single ramp design and that is the only reason I am letting it go. It is gorgeous. It is raucous. It is "cool". If you are able to house a larger collection, I highly recommend this one. It is almost as good as LOTR...but not quite....

I miss it already, and it doesn't leave until this weekend....

What happened to the plan to convert the garage into the "Gorilla Gameroom"?

Oh, it is still on. I still only have room for 4, though. I want to save room for a work area, fridge, etc. The total space is only 20 x 10 and has 3 doors so it isn't a giant gameroom...

Where are your pins now? The way I look at it you've got more than room for 4 pins after your remodel is done!

Come on TG, you can sell this!

Expand the Gorillamerage first so you can fit more games

If it helps, BDK was the correct one to get rid of by FAR IMHO.

The pins are in my "great room". I don't really know that the room should be called, thus the parentheses. It is really more like a 400 sf. foyer! My wife has been patient with me but I can see that ending!

Thanks! I hope that ends up being true once I get a chance to play WOZ. I assume WOZ will be a keeper. Heck, it better be for the dang money invested!

I was thinking about trading or selling my BDK, but I started really getting into the ruleset, and now I love it. I think I am done trading for now. I like my lineup, and am playing all of my machines consistently for the first time in quite awhile.

Wait a minute... When did you reacquire LOTR?

Also, I like TS and all but I'd keep BDK over it. Granted you can get more coin for BDK. Perhaps that was a consideration.

At any rate you're going to have a pretty pimp collection!

Welllll...this is a prime case of counting my chickens before they hatch. I will be buying it. Hopefully this weekend.

Yes. The only consideration in this case. However, YOU predicted I would be getting LOTR again to go along with "some other future pin"...so.... I blame YOU!

He he he! I'll gladly take the blame for you getting LOTR back in your collection. It is the Lord of the Pins after all. You already know you won't regret it!
