Transcript
Welcome to where this will play.
I'm Ian your mixy casual gamer.
I'm Stacy. I'm your non gamer gamer.
And today we are here with another edition of
Rank My Mind.
Yes, this is our this is our series where we have BG stats uh select five games in a category and we'll tell you that category in just a minute and then we will rank them for ourselves and then we'll rank them for each other and see how we do. Uh, last time I uh I did not do very well at all. I went over on it. So, let's see if I can do Let's see if I can do a little bit better on this one. We were We were We both were three for five in the very first one of these we ever did, which was uh which was uh worker placement games. That one was a little easier. Last one, I overthought it. I I overthought it and uh ended up shooting myself in the foot. So today, what is our category?
Party games.
So this is games that are listed as party games. We have some over there that we think are party games or should be listed as party games, but they are not listed as party games. Um because we are going to do this completely random. Um according to BG stats um board gamegeeek uh because they think we have 28 party games in our collection. We really like playing games that are considered party games um even for two. So,
this gonna be hard.
It is. We're gonna see what comes up. Some of these are I we feel are a little more party than others. So, if we if if it comes up and we don't feel it's really partyish, we we may choose a new one. So, let's see what the first one is. First one
is Fox and drop a pen on the floor.
All right. So, flux Okay. Newer one to us. Okay. All right.
Junk art.
Oh, this is already hard.
It is because these are partyish games, but they're okay. Let's see the next one. Um, we're not getting ones that we Tapple. Tapple. That's a party game. Some of those weren't really party games. I think one of them was. I think I I think I went a little too quick on one of them.
That's all right.

[snorts]
You're like, "Oh, I didn't know I'd have a reason."
I don't have a reason. This is the least play game, I think, out of all of these.
I think we've played that once.
Twice. Yeah.
Um, we played this sitting on the couch.
We did.
And
which was fun. It was
I know how much you enjoyed the other games.
Okay.
So, I'm just
My number five is Tapple.
Okay.
My number five is Tapple. So you why were it correct?
Um I think I just like the other ones a little bit more. I I think if we play it more I think it will probably move bad.
I mean it's just it's a it's a silly word game. You know where you're trying to do thing but it's a lot of fun. You know it's a lot of fun. Okay. So you got one.
You got one. I got that one. All right.
Check mark.
I think your number five is flip seven.
No.
Okay. So that means I got that means I got at least two wrong.
All right, we are not starting off very well. Okay.
Yes, we are.
What is my number four?
I think your number four because we haven't played it very much is Flux.
That is incorrect. That is not my number four. God darn it.
Well, I think your number four is tapple.
Nope.

Didn't you say that was my number five?

Oh, okay. That's okay. I'm surp Okay, that one that one surprised me. Okay. And then we'll go over we'll go over the reasons why at the end because we don't want to give away what our stuff is. Okay.
I think your number three is junk art.
Incorrect.
Okay. Well, we're not doing very well here.
No. No. This is not easy to do,
especially when you have a lot of game. I mean, these are such different sort of party games. I think your number three is flux.
Yes.
Yeah, I got one.
We're tied one to one.
Okay. All right. What's my number two?
Um I think
cuz you don't know what my other one You don't know what my ones were. So you don't know what is actually still left. You just know you got a couple wrong.
I think your number two is dice capades.
Yes, I'm right.
Yes, my number two is dice capades. I think your number two is junk art.
No.
No. Really? That was really
okay. Wow. Then I did not do very good.
I think your number one was flip seven.
Nope. Nope.
Dang it. I like
I think you're going to be surprised.
I think your number one is dice capates.
No.
What? Seriously? Mhm.
Dice capades wasn't. Wow. Okay. All right. Well, I got one.
I got two. I'm still ahead.
She's way ahead. She's way ahead. All right. Um,
you want to do your top five?
Yeah. Let's uh let's uh Yeah, [snorts] my number five. Well, you start. What was your number five?
My number five was Tapple.
Oh. Oh, I had that. Okay. Okay. Game number five was tapple
for what? For
um just because we haven't played it like a lot. Um and this is a kind of a thinky game. So you have to come up with a letter and then hit the letter on the thing. And sometimes I don't pay attention and hit the wrong letter. I've done that before. And sometimes I just cannot think of like the topic a letter for that fast enough.
Right.
And so I'm not very good at that. We usually end up playing this, you know, somewhat late at night.
Usually just a few times in a row.
Yeah. Um,
you got two. You said
I got two.
Oopsie. I It's backwards.
So that's why I picked Tappel as my number five. If we play it more, I think it could go up the go up the rankings.
Okay. Okay.
It's our oldest game, I think. Up. Well, yeah. No, I think Fox is the oldest game.
Oh, oldest as in when it came out.
Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Yeah.
Probably something like that.
Okay. Well, yeah, that did not uh I did not do as good as I thought I was going to.
Got a little cocky, did you? No, I just No, I just thought that I kind of knew things a little bit better.
Yeah,
I think.
All right.
Okay, now we number five was also tapled.
I got that one right.
Okay. So, my number five was also that. Okay. So, you got that one right now.
Yep. So, we had a crossover.
Okay. We did have a crossover on our number fives. Um I get I got it wrong. She got it right. Okay. And what is your number four?
What was your number four? I said tapple.
My number four was drum roll please.
Oh junkart.
Dang. Wow. Really?
Number four junk art just because
really
I can't build word beans
and I am constantly knocking my little towers over. I love the theme of it. I love the pieces. I love the colorfulness of it. I am just not good at stacking. And I don't think I win very frequently at that. So,
see, I'm jumping stuff up there too quick.
So, therefore, I had to pick that as my number four.
All right. Okay. Um, yeah. So, my number four was actually flip seven. Oh, yep. I enjoy it. I think it I've played it. We only play two players, so I don't know it's the best at two players. Um, it does say three plus players, but you can play it at two players. Um, I've played it on BGA with more people live, you know, uh, in real time. Um, and I enjoy it, but I don't know. I find it fine. I Yeah. So that was my number four.
Okay, that works. Number four. So my number three is game we picked up on vacation.
I had that one.
That's Flux. Yep. So I'm not good at that game, but
my number three was also Flux. I I just really enjoyed our one play of it and I think it could really rise up the um up the list of party games as we play it more. So that was my number three as well.
Okay, my number two is one that shocked Ian and that is your Dice Capades.
I'm I'm stunned.
I know. The only reason that this was not number one is because I think we need some new trivia cards. Yeah,
you know. Um, but I loved ice capage. You're racing around the board through different categories
or just collecting category. We do have two versions of it in here. So, we got like
two versions in here.
One you were just rolling a dice and getting the categories and stuff. So,
yeah.
Okay.
So, I do love me some dice capades. Um, my sister even played that with us and had fun. So,
I like it.
Mine number two was also dice capabades. Oh,
my number two was also dice capabades.
Oh, yeah. I got that one right.
Okay,
so my number two was also dice capabades. What was your number five? Tapple.
My number five was tapple. Number four was junk art. Three was flux.
Okay. So, what's your number?
Two was dice capades.
Oh, so your number one is flip seven.
You know why?
Why?
Take that, mister. I love to press my luck. Press my press my luck.
Okay. Okay,
I have quickly become a press your luck kind of gal. I don't know what it is. I am not a gambling person. I'm not a betting person, but I do love to press my luck.
Okay, there you go. Um, well, that leaves Junkart as my number one.
Yep, I should have known.
I love Junkart. I think it's such a great game.
I It's just a fun party game. I mean, we do play it, too. I do have the new Junkart Revolution at school. Kids had a blast playing it. um that was donated by board game club. So um yeah, so there was our rank my mind how we ranked them for each other and how we did for ourselves. So let's see what the updated stands are. I kind of spoiled a little bit. Oops.
But Stacy has eight out of Oh, that's just a eight out of 15.
Oops.
Let me fix that.
Sorry. A new graphic. I forgot that I I changed the left side, but I didn't change the total. We are not doing very well, are we?
That's okay. It's a it's a new graphic so that we could keep track. Um, so let me get this real quick. But yeah, let us know what you think of the party games that we had on our list. And yeah, let me let us know what you think about the five that we had in our rank of mine and where would you have ranked them?
Oh my gosh,
there is the updated list. Stacy is eight of 15. I am four for 15 because I have stunk the last two categories. We got to get some different categories in here, man. All right.
Oh, boy.
Well, there you have it. There was rank on Mind. Once again, this is Ben. Where there's a wills,
there's a play. I'm in.
