It takes the fun out of the game and you can't base everything on the statistics either.

Okay, okay... I think I just did this in my last post. In my defense, it was just acknowledging that maybe I'd let the way the last game I played went color my perception of Nogrod. Or how others perceieve him. Not that it matters much.

As a newer player, most references to former games go over my head.

I agree that we shouldn't spend a lot of time dwelling on past games.

However, to ignore them completely seems impossible, since they are part of our consciousness and we can't vacuum out all previous knowledge. I think that even if we make it taboo to mention prior games, people are still going to be thinking about them.

Anyway, so I guess what I'm saying is all things in moderation. Yes, we want this game to stand on its own feet, but no we didn't just get plopped down here from outer space and this isn't the first game ever played on the board.
