What can I say? I like polls.

I was just thinking how blessed I am to have a tight group that loves Overpower. We play for about 5 hours every Saturday, and then some sporatic games thoughout the week.

Now that's partying like it's 1999!

Ahhh... 1999... Year of the Matrix. Year of Phantom Menace... oh, wait, that's not good! AAAHHH!

I've played about 20 matches this week, though that is by no means the norm. I think I average about 4 - 6 a week if you were to spread it out.

Yeah the best year ever happened to be my graduation year.  ;D

With me playing is feast and famine.  My veteran opponent gets the 'playing itch' every few months and then we might go on a binge.  :D

I've also taught my cousin and a younger brother, but they don't have the enthusiasm per say.  I've got to build the decks and set everything up, but I take it where I can get it.   ;)

I've got nothing going on around here.  All my friends who used to play I am no longer in touch with.  And I am too lazy to post stuff up looking for people at the local comic shops.

When i had OPOnline running I was playing 7 or 8 games a week.  Now my only hope is to get to T.O for one of BBH's meet ups.

As I look out my window, and see the weather alternate between freezing rain and snow, I also have the same wish, and it has nothing to do with OverPower!  :-[

Must be some lightning fast battles. It takes us a long time to get through one match.  :D

I play almost never. The one friend I have that plays is half a country away, and he only has limited cards, so it kind of limits what i can do when we do play.

I'm working on getting my brother into it, but the prices are pretty steep for someone who has nothing to build on.  Right now he's limited to the original set and some DC and JLA. I'm hoping over time he amasses more of a collection.

Have you checked out OPonline? I tried it out for the first time this week and its the current next best thing to not playing with an actual physical person in front of you.

I've checked it out. Unfortunately I run Linux and while I've gotten the program running in a virtual Windows machine, I haven't gotten the internet working. Hopefully some day.

Palatinus

I play very rarely.  My wife plays, but she rarely wants to play because if I beat one of her decks she doesn't want to play until she fixes it and she doesn't want to work on fixing it so we wind up not playing for long periods of time.  I taught my mom to play, but we have only played a few times since then.

I play with you now though ^_^ I just prefer when you are losing.

If you're Palatinus' wife or mother, this is cute.


I didn't even get to join the poll.  :'(  I haven't played in years.  All that changes in about 3 days.
