What is the Century?
The “Century” refers to the group of 100 featured game events at the World Boardgaming Championships. Every Century event is ranked from “2” to “6”; the number is how many places win a plaque—commonly referred to as “wood” in the vernacular of the conference. In addition to an 8-inch shield plaque (all other plaques are rectangular), the winner receives a Centurion t-shirt and many are highlighted on our Centurion poster.
