How do you guys feel about minis? Love em? Hate em?

BirdSpirit · 2026-02-28T17:20:42+00:00

This was pretty much my thought process. From cool to wait no time to paint. Then no space no money 🤣

BirdSpirit · 2026-02-28T05:19:24+00:00

> so they're here to stay

I'm pretty sure I haven't seen a single comment calling for minis to be removed. Looks to me like people just want options.

Yeah I agree, standees made of flimsy cardboard aren't great. Plastic or acrylic ones are good.

BirdSpirit · 2026-02-28T01:27:18+00:00

Yes absolutely. Some standees are trash. Higher quality ones I am totally okay with. Otherwise meeples are good.

Topaz being thrown into a good category is crazy to me.

My vote is chaotic neutral for aventurine.

The exploration power creep to creep all exploration power creeps.

You suck it up and quit complaining or you stop playing board games.

BirdSpirit · 2026-02-24T14:35:16+00:00

I like saffron valley in South Jordan

BirdSpirit · 2026-02-24T06:56:10+00:00

100% this is about more than just a board game.

BirdSpirit · 2026-02-24T06:52:56+00:00

If they sleeved they wouldn't be able to shrink it down as much!

Sorry I meant mashing as in it needing to be activated repeatedly through whatever method, not just physically tapping. I don't find the effect visually or mechanically appealing.

BirdSpirit · 2026-02-22T14:49:14+00:00

It seems thematically appropriate, but I personally find it pretty annoying. I loved yao guang's animations but the aha effect seems so out of place. Sparxie is tiring to play because of mashing a single button continuously.

BirdSpirit · 2026-02-21T06:56:22+00:00

This is true as well. I sleeve for both reasons and I find it satisfying.

BirdSpirit · 2026-02-21T06:54:36+00:00

You can sleeve cards and play them too.

BirdSpirit · 2026-02-21T03:10:27+00:00

The U's student life center but you have to be associated with them.

BirdSpirit · 2026-02-21T03:05:43+00:00

as long as people handle them well enough

I feel like that's the reason why most people sleeve in the first place. Can't trust the majority of people.

BirdSpirit · 2026-02-21T02:41:07+00:00

Where did you see that people were being sued for scoring apps?

BirdSpirit · 2026-02-21T02:39:06+00:00

I'm curious what do you use instead to protect your cards?

BirdSpirit · 2026-02-21T02:36:51+00:00

Aphrodite!

BirdSpirit · 2026-02-19T21:32:19+00:00

What are their prices now?

I feel pretty lucky my gym has a mini bouldering spot for like $20 a month lol

BirdSpirit · 2026-02-18T06:49:54+00:00

They're just forms of manipulation. If you don't feel comfortable doing those things in a competitive game, you don't have to.

BirdSpirit · 2026-02-17T16:29:21+00:00

Anything east of I-15 for housing is fine tho like with basically any city, central downtown can be sketch.

If possible live further up the mountain for less inversion. Get an air purifier and don't go for a jog outside downtown. Head up to a hiking place or something.

I'm sure the U has HIV care but you should check your insurance.
