Too much Caylus?

dagibbsWhen I first got Caylus, I thought of it as a fairly heavy, maybe even thinky, Euro game. Now, I find it easy and light -- most of my plays are automatic. There will be a few points where I have to think a bit, check over the possibilities a bit, count cubes carefully, but mostly not. I still like the game, but I think I've got it mostly figured out. I still make the occasional mistake -- but generally ones of carelessness.
I've played it 35 times. That's a pretty decent number, for me, though I'm sure there are people with many more plays under their belt. I generally am too much of a subscriber of the cult of the new in board games to rack up huge numbers of plays of any one game. (Other than quick filler games. I've got lots of plays of Set and Bananagrams.)
But, if you look at classic games... I have no idea how many games of Go or hands of Bridge I've played. I expect both are in the 1000s.
