I wanna know who you're playing with that Pandemic isn't winnable? I've won more games than I've lost, easily.

I've never won it. My wife has played a few more times than I have and she has only won once.

Were you one of the people Chad was talking about making a work flow diagram? ;)

Seriously though, that game is a bastard.

I disagree. You may be making the same mistake I was at the beginning; when a tile sinks, you pull its card out of the deck too. My friends weren't doing that, and it was unloseable; when we started doing that, win rate dropped to maybe 50%.

No we did take the cards out but with three people use the pilot and the diver and one other. save your helicopters and you will win.

I've finally listened to (half of) this episode, but I have to comment:

Hanburgers! :lol:

I would definitely listen to a podcast on gaming and the Han dynasty! :)

No. I guess we just hit the low end of the probability chart.

Ho-lee crap. I had that game when I was like...12 or 13 or something. Got it for Christmas. I loved that game but man was it tough (as I remember). I loved the little talking center bit.
