So, have you all made a list of designers and stalls you wanna check out ? Any games that stood out to you ? Anyone volunteering or considering it ? Tips and tricks to share ?

Not yet. I usually don't make a list until a few days before it starts. But maybe I won't prepare anything at all this time.

I'm more focused on playing games for fun now, rather than getting the best deals like I did 5 years ago. The SPIEL is good for trying out games, sometimes even before release, or getting some exclusive bonus expansions, but not so much for getting cheap prices anymore.

Besides, I don't want to add to my huge collection until I have more time to play games. So this time I may just go unprepared and see what looks interesting.

Hmm, sounds good to me. I'm gonna focus on playing too. I am glad I was able to get Turing machine then but kind of have a fomo on such games this year. Hopefully I can see past that 🙈

I wanna try working at the stalls for some producers during Spielmesse (you explain games to visitors and it's on fhift basis) but don't know how that affects taxes etc because I'm already full time employed. Oh well, to be determined

Turing Machine is actually the only game on my wish list this year. It's the perfect match for me as I love solving logical puzzles, work in IT and like to play board games instead of sitting in front of a display all the time. The Steam game Turing Complete was already a dream come true for me.

There is no impact on taxes as long as your Nebenverdienst is not higher than 520€ a month. You also don't have to pay social security contributions in that case.
