Behind the Beat: On the Move

How many boxes do you need? 10% more than you think

Front covers of the games Pack & Stack and Moving Day

My family has been packing, stacking, and moving for the past three weeks, and because I'm cheap and we're not moving that far, we've been doing almost all of it ourselves. We hit crunch time this past week, so my online time has been limited to researching suicide pills and methods for stuffing boxes to 120% of their maximum volume.

Along the way I got rid of more than nine hundred games — mostly by just giving them away, a process I came to appreciate thanks to a recent library swap event — and more games will go once I start excavating the storage unit, but for now the end of packing is in sight, so posts will resume in the near future...assuming those pills don't arrive in time.
