¿Question #4670?
Gialmere: True Life Gaming: Have you ever opened a new game containing a zillion wooden cubes, then sat and counted them all to make sure that the total tallied with the number on the component list?

HausOfQwert: No, but I've spent hours correcting the typos, track numbers, album titles, file names, etc. of ID3 tags on MP3s I found on the internet. Same level of OCD?
purplewurple: Of course. What kind of monster doesn't check if their game is complete and unharmed before playing? Why, the most fun I've had "playing" a game was counting all the camels in a second hand copy of Through the Desert at a stand in Essen.
BOBBYCAN: A zillion is a lot. No.
Lausus: Yes, but I've had more than one game that didn't contain the listed amount, so I was glad I did.
armoured Penguin: To my shame.... Yes twice just to make sure i didn't miss count
Randy Cox: Not a zillion. If it's something like 15 of each color, then yes.
