About Me

My photo
Matt Stevenson (tasajara on BGG)
Eugene, Oregon, United States
I spent many hours playing board games growing up and into my teens, but then played very little all through college and beyond.

However, I discovered the new revolution of board gaming in 2008 when I was introduced to some great games by my friend Chris DeFrisco (cdefrisco on BGG). Since then, my collection has grown (faster than it probably should) and I enjoy all sorts of games.

Come share my passion and see what is out there to enjoy in the modern world of gaming!
