You guys are great! Very "real", easy-going, and down to earth. No fancy bells & whistles, simply discussion. And discussion that is easy to absorb & understand. You guys excel because you are approachable & relatable.
‘They know they don’t want it but get it’ sounds like a pair of socks for Xmas. But we all need socks - right! A truly great ramble & banter. Concur w/ insights. I earnestly believe the build here is that your channel, in the past year has become vital & relevant in daily life, keeping virtual human contact & maintaining interest in gaming. So kudos & big thank you.
2020 was my biggest year for wargaming in terms of really picking up the hobby. Its been fun watching your videos and I made purchases based on your unboxings and reviews. Keep it up! Lets see where this year takes us! :)
CSR Award has none specific criteria other than the highest number of votes. Your channel is really deserved. You have done a great job to the name. Congratulation indeed.
Sorry to hear about your personal losses through the year... I only discovered your channel this year in lockdown in UK, I have bought so much due to your recommendations especially solitaire games!! Thank you for cheering me up in solitude... but one question... where in England did Alexander come from? A friend and I have a bet going lol
I too was worried about game related issues with shipping n mfg. But, wow! So many great games! Thankfully my worries were for nada. I may have gone off the deep end with buying last year, and even this month (bought 6) n got a gift coming in from Compass Games. Retired. Plan: minimum 8 games a month played. Gotta get #5 done today. I'm lagging. Vids to do too.
It wouldn't be a true Players Aid video without audience participation on the subject of Alexander's shirt/sweater. One of these days he will wear a tattered Metallica sleeveless t-shirt for pure shock value.
Your recording area is very well-lit; gives your videos a "pro" appearance. Do you use special lighting equipment, or is that the regular lighting in the room?
Always enjoy TPA. Great analysis and entertaining. Shame that the paranoia around the virus has wrecked so many aspects of society, to include getting together for a great wargame.
There is no need to be modest! Your reviews are great: clear and informative. Your channel is my go to board game review. I am not surprised that you won an award: well deserved.
You guys are great!

There is such a thing as real .When will people stop putting it in quotation marks?
Definitely not everything in 2020 was bad: I discovered your channel! Thanks for all in the interesting content!!

Thank you gentlemen. You’ve helped me keep my sanity in this challenging year.
Shout out from Austin. I've got a group of friends that enjoy your vids and blog. Thanks for all the effort 'loosey-goosey' or otherwise. :)

Great recap of the year! Well done guys!
Alexanders shirt game is on point as usual - good to see
thanks a lot in this one
I have money, and there are a lot of games I want...
I simply don't have the time.
I have a lot of time but not the money !

Man, I think I'm going to go play By Stealth and Sea today...
Alexander, wearing the kitchen curtains as a shirt, are you?

LOL Comment of the day johnny Love it

@@Skyrider68 Actually, that would be acceptable!
I just can't believe his wife lets him out of the house dressed like that.... tee hee

Alexander and Grant: have either of you played *Europe Engulfed* Thoughts?
Did I miss your top 10 of 2020 somewhere?
No, this is probably another months away at least as we play the last few games of 2020 that we can reasonably squeeze in.
I'd love to see you play This War Without an Enemy. There is literally zero playthroughs of it out there.
We did a KS preview of it where I went over the rules a good chunk.
@@ThePlayersAid yea I watched it all. Just want a actual playthrough from someone. haha
Given the rise of the extremely well paid Twitch streamer it seems clear that the authentic vibe of a rambling blog is very desired.
If you guys wear short sleeves in January, what the heck do you wear in mid summer, (in a desert)
FIRST!
I just discovered you guys over the past two weeks and you put out great content!
Thanks, and happy wacthing (there's a lot of it!)
Great video, love the discussion! You guys are super. We just have to keep going forward and muddle our way through this; Embrace the Suck! Lol🙂
Just game on dudes... the IFR is so low and is safe... enjoy life :D
There is no need to be modest! Your reviews are great: clear and informative. Your channel is my go to board game review. I am not surprised that you won an award: well deserved.
Please do a video about a District Commander game! We need one!
Be sure to play it at least a few times first!
We will at some point. we've played around with it, but need to revisit it and will do a video when we do.
Your channel got me back into wargaming after almost 15 years away from it. The reviews of the two Target bomber games hooked me in.
Did not play as much this year? Holy moly.
Keep up the good job guys. Because of you now i want to buy rome vs gaul and this war without a enemy 😆
Stay safe greetings from Portugal
Did you post this vid on BGG?
They might delete it because, you know, no women and no PoC.
See what I did there?
