More stuff coming out from Uvalde. Cops literally in the school just on camera laughing, checking their phones and getting hand sanitizer while kids are being murdered.

You forgot the most pathetic detail - the phone of one has a picture of the punisher as his background.

Also this image.

I only play a few games every month on average, so I'm usually strategic with wild cards and only use them on decks that look like something I'd enjoy playing. Additionally, if I don't want to use as many wildcards as needed to make the deck in full, I try to substitute one of the mythics or rares for some common or uncommon with either a similar mana cost or effect.

Obviously cards like Omnath or Embercleave can't be replicated, but vraska's contempt can be easily replaced with some other "kill a minion" card.

Somehow I have more mythic wilds than I do rares?

Yeah it's really gross.

Good cider is top tier and I won't stand for this slander

Calling Dibs on Alcohol if that is how this works id love to run that one eventually

After that last game I'd be really curious what the flavor split might be for this.

Obviously don't say anything, I'm just voicing lurker interest!

Glad you enjoyed it, and that you were able to sort out those crazy pc problems to finish it.

I only bothered doing one or two of the sidequests after Melchior because even though I loved the game and enjoyed the combat enough even without the highest difficulty, I had had enough by then. And the pacing still dragged.

Hopefully we get another cast with this quality soon. I didn't play arise because i didn't see that much praise after the initial release hype.

People in denial think that it's impossible for it to happen to them, so they vote according to that denial.

People that are rich and want to manipulate the have-nots for power, know that it won't ever happen to them because they won't ever be in a place where it could happen to them, so they don't care.

Also to be clear, discussing your mental health in a negative way in any mafia game beyond very light touching on it is grounds to be replaced out immediately in my book. If you are feeling bad enough to talk about it, you should get some rest and not worry about mafia. If you are being manipulative about it, I don't want you in my mafia game.

We don't really have a codified set of ethics from game to game but that's my thought in my game.

I agree with this. A number of posts in this game were quite abusive with this, and it's come up in the other recent games too.

Bct was so obviously scum from my uninformed onlooker perspective. I had very little read on sheep, but was quite impressed with how he manipulated the game in the end.

When we said "do something," we didn't mean "tweet something so stupidly ineffective that it makes trump tweets almost coherent"

I'd sooner die

Only if people think he might do something about it, though.

Do you generally try to 100% (or close to it) most games you play?

History is written by those who can make up the most bullshit, apparently

To be fair, they've also said that precedent doesn't matter and they'll just follow whatever their personal beliefs are at any given time. Which means that our laws are bound to 6 unelected judges appointed by the Heritage Foundation.

I really like how this article described it.

Undead constitutionalism, where the current conservative grievance takes priority over codified constitutional words

No idea who that guy is

RIP

Thank you so much for running this. It's been a lot of fun

Just one more senate seat bro, I just need one more senate seat, just one more senate seat and then I'll go clean bro, come on man just one more senate seat, just one more senate seat and then I swear I won't need any more senate seats, just one more senate seat, just one more--

This is seriously what it's like.
And the problem with saying "just vote" is that those people are preaching to the choir. The answer can't just be "vote" because those of us who have been voting have BEEN voting.

Poor Roberts and his legacy :(

No, but the gop controls the legislature (not enough to override the gov veto though) so it's close!

Holy shit
This is so much
If they'd even done one of these things (other than mobile) then I'd be pretty excited

My two faves :)
Heracross takes it though

it's much lower now than it was relative to when it was enacted because corporate lobbyists pay good money to keep it low so their corporations don't have to pay their workers living wages

please tell me you already knew that

please

i'm begging you

Corporations are never the bad guy! /s

tzolkin sounds fun to me

It's on bga! And honestly is kind of nicer to play there because it does the math for you.

It would be a reasonable argument if the entire reason the minimum wage was created wasn't to ensure a minimum quality of life for individuals in an obscenely wealthy country.

You're just plain wrong, dude. Get your head out of your ass and stop drinking the propaganda kool aid.

Oh, and they also decided 6-3 that you can't sue/seek damages for not having your Miranda rights read to you.

I'm picturing every cop squealing with delight while their little tails quiver

You aren't supposed to be able to live off a minimum wage job.

Yes, you are. Just tell us that you hate the poors and want them to die, it would be more honest of you.

Alito proving to us all that you don't need a brain to be on the highest court of the country.

did someone teach you the game, or did you try to learn it from a rulebook? i think wingspan isn't the hardest game to learn to play, but learning any game straight from the rulebook can be a 30+ minute affair even for just one person - 80% of the time, for me eurogames that take 60+ min to play, i would advise against trying to learn it without a rules teacher right before trying to play it

It was the rulebook - neither I nor my friend knew anything about the game other than the grapevine's assessment of its quality. That was 100% the issue and I'm sure we would have enjoyed it if we had a teacher.

I really enjoy tzolkin but agree with your salad comment. The times I've played where I felt like I was doing horribly, and not maximizing any synergies at all, I've either won or come within one point of winning thanks to end game scoring that I didn't consider. The one time I felt like things were coming together and I had a plan, I got slaughtered by end game scoring.

"Billionaires are ok because not every single thing they do is horrible" wow what a great propaganda machine there

With gen 7's elimination, we now have no pokemon remaining that debuted within the last 20 years.

Way to make me feel old!

Huh, I don't think I got any of that stuff with Rokorou. Probably by the end I was just rushing to the credits.

The final dungeon is a let down for the reasons you explained. Maybe I need to replay Symphonia, but I don't remember its final dungeon being nearly as padded - perhaps because I played it when I was a teenager and time had no meaning then?

Maybe after it gets going, but the instructions were quite lengthy and tedious

Legitimately never heard of the ones below they/them. What are those?

Same.

Unsure how i missed this topic before! Tagging for sure

A friend and i tried to get wingspan going at pax east, but the rules were difficult to make sense of and ultimately neither of us felt like it was worth it to learn.

Espeon

No, because he's been dead for half of my life

Not apologizing for gen1 bias

4x10 would certainly be my ideal for a week, because i usually do closer to 5x10 in the office.

I always suspected that the way Amazon treats its workers would catch up eventually, but I never expected it to be before 2025.
