¿Question #4000?
meshuggener: Do you feel a little sad once all of the counters are punched out knowing that you'll never do that again for that game?

Malgorth: Nope
MrPanic: If it is so much fun I buy a second gamebox ;)
Spirit of 70: No.
Woelf: No
TiwazTyrsfist: I keep the punch board frames. Sometimes, when noone else is around, I meticulously put all the tokens back into their original spots on the boards, then RE-PUNCH the game.
nachof: Yes :(
ricardofo: no. I have 2 even 3 copies of my favorite games
jessitron: no
daveroswell: don't really think about it
Nixemo: No.
LordDarkSith: it's a time like no other
Roosterfish: nope, relieved and pissed because I always screw one or two up and have to fix them
Polgara: no
MeGrimlockKing: Yes, but then I obsessively shuffle the cards for an hour and the pain fades.
danafarr: No. I always feel nervous that I've missed one and count them before I throw away the extra salvage. BTW, this does make me feel sadly neurotic, so maybe my answer should be a yes.
Typh: Yes!!!!
Randy Cox: Not one bit. I'm usually happy the drudgery is over. Why can't they come all separated and placed in tissue paper and taped on the ends, like the heirloom product games used to be?
admiraldan: no
Hector Vortac: yes
Bosco312: Yes. But I save the sprue's in case I feel like having the fun all over again.
mr. assist: temporarily. also a slight negative when buying used games.
foxxdye: Yeah, a kind of postpartem depression comes over me.
Son of Murray: YES. It's like when the "new car" smell is gone.
Brentoon: Naw, life goes on, one spoonful of figgy pudding at a time
parkrrrr: If you do, maybe anger management courses will help.
msstep: a little
matthan: kind of. yes.
elirlandes: Certainly not.
Butterbane: Sometimes
DHEK: Nah. What's there to be sad about?! It just means that you now have a proper game that you can play!
aleo09: a bit
arkibet: not really
douglasbushong: No
Michael Becker: Nope - but I sure love the smell of a fresh counter sheet!
Redbeardin84: Nope. Sod the bits
GrandpaDave: Yes
produceguy1765: no
ZiggyZambo: Yes
dmomo: No
chad56s: Yeah. But the greater sadness comes with knowing that that's probably the extent of my relationship with said game.
jasta6: Yes...................................................... {:-(
Helenoftroy: not really, I am more excited about playing the game than the pretty pieces.
BeatPosse: yes
brainrob: No
Chris Page: That's why you buy multiple copies...
bigbadsteve: strangely so
Kafka: Uh... no.
Beowulf: Counters, yes. Removing pieces from sprues, NO!
themightyhump: No
LemonyFresh: No
rawdawg: not really!
MIDIManNI: Sure do! Ah! the agony and ectasy that is deflowering a new game.....
skrutsch: Scott says, "Heck no." Suzy says, "sometimes."
DaGen: no, relieved that I didnt tear any counters!
AbeLincoln: no, the ennui only sets in once the pleasant smell wears off...
POvidiusNaso: Nope. I'm usually ecstatic (or upset) that all the pieces are there (or not).
darthcliff: No, I feel a sense of relief!
Tamsmo: no
ZombyDawg: No. I'm glad that ordeal is over. Obviously you haven't gotten involved with Advanced Squad Leader. The people who complain about how complicated the rules are and how it takes too long to play and is too fiddly, etc., etc. haven't carefully cut the pieces out with an X-acto knife and tried to organise them. Geez, playing the game is a breeze after that!
Domokun: nope cause I hate punching counters. :)
dakarp: Not really.
Great Dane: not at all!
Tushratta: No, I feel very happy that it's all done.
bjonenplota: Yes
obob: I know this site even has "geek" in it's name, but still . . . that's just so . . . lame
Sceadeau: nope
djlg: Yes.
Thedalek: Unless I load the sprues back up. Then I can. It's just not the same, though.
puffinge: This is just sick.
chaddyboy_2000: No.
Gecko23: No.
CDRodeffer: No
sourwyrm: oh no
jttm: There'll always be new games.
skelebone: Not really. Usually, I'm more concerned with disposing of the frames.
CortexBomb: Not at all, I actually prefer to buy used games to skip the whole initial organisation step
Lord_Prussian: Sometimes
Spielfreak: Heck no! I'm usually overjoyed, as it's a task that's finally accomplished and I can now proceed to read the rules and play the game.
