London League — Week six

Unfortunately this this the first opportunity I’ve had to write about these games and the memories are now somewhat faint — also having played a few games online since then doesn’t help...

VTES, IKEA and 60 cards

It turns out we can thank the swedes for more than 60 card decks.

As part of the constant pursuit for gaining control of my card collection, I turned to IKEA's catalogue searching for something cheap and practical to store cards in. Previously I had been using 5000 capacity card board boxes to store cards — but they were large and cumbersome.

I found a cheap practical solution — multiple sets of Helmer drawers. Each one can hold approximately 12,000 cards and the draws come up completely (which is great when working with single disciplines or clans). They were only £25 / €25 an absolute bargin.

I simply sliced up the boxes they came in for dividers and glued them in place — here are some pics.

London League — Week four

Couldn't make it this week as I got hit by a nasty cough.

Thankfully Matt and Mike reported the results of the games and took some notes — thanks guys. I reworked the text here and there — but it's essentially their reports...
