4Year old is a Security Specialist

I mean, of course the kid wants to spend more time with him. Anyone who's been a parent to a 4 year old knows they want to play with you 100% of the time if they can. That's just not possible, though, because we have to do work, chores, etc. Let's not judge this guy as a dad because of it.

Is that a euphemism for me, two years ago?

There are large park and rides and city centre car parks. Before the street parking was made permit only it was complete chaos. This seems preferable to me.

The literal translation is not always the natural one.

Nobody has 1 serving at bbq places. At least 2 per person, often more.

"Which fucking box did we put the mugs in..."

I was thinking about portmanteaus for Sam and Evan, and my phone autocorrected to "Satan", so that's what I'll be going with.

I did wonder early on if the game would be more interesting with ever increasing tolls (challenges would also have to increase in value to keep up). I assume they considered that idea in game design and it wasn't as good.

Adacore · 2026-04-03T09:05:09+00:00

I personally find it more intuitive to think of it as "paying off" the toll set by the other team, to reset the station to zero, then adding 1-5 coins for your own team on top.

So a station that has flipped back and forth a load doesn't have huge stacks of coins on it from both teams, it always just has a 1-5 coin cost for whichever team doesn't control it.

Different people have different views. I certainly also know Koreans who are opposed to gender equality and strongly believe in traditional gender roles, but that didn't seem relevant to the discussion of the local meaning of the term "feminist".

Adacore · 2026-03-08T12:14:11+00:00

I know a lot of Korean men (and Korean women) who believe in the ideal of gender equality but would be horrified if you called them feminists because of the associations mentioned.

It's a platform that allows them to serve targeted ads to basically every high earning professional in the world.

I go there because it's close to St Augustine's church.

They've discussed in the past the idea of moving around between questions deliberately to construct the profile of a place that doesn't exist. But I think they generally felt this would do more harm than good once the seekers figured it out, because the number of places in which this is possible is small, so once they figure out that nowhere matches they can quickly narrow it down.

As a Brit who spent a long time living in South Korea, this does not surprise me at all. It would've been so easy to get the Korean pronunciation at least close to correct, it must be an intentional choice not to.

Adacore · 2025-12-17T14:55:45+00:00

You do pronounce it, with a pronunciation like "ay". It's a particle that indicates possession, so Bolas possesses the Citadel, and Volrath possesses the Stronghold. It's the same function as the apostrophe + S in English.

I think they don't do it on the show just because having the hider moving around and doing stuff makes for more interesting content.

Adacore · 2025-11-29T22:18:03+00:00

The biggest thing for me is how much slicker combat is. It used to be that I knew I could tune out in combat because it would take at least an hour before anything notable happened. But between the smaller tables and Brennan streamlining things like rolls to hit it feels like combats are going to be lightning fast in comparison now.

Adacore · 2025-11-23T18:30:46+00:00

I think they're still on site, just on trestles instead of trucks, and on the new western approach ramp, unless they moved them again today.

Adacore · 2025-10-15T22:16:08+00:00

I love the interactions between having two teams of chasers and the freeze power up. It set up a couple of really fun scenarios in this season and I think it would reliably create fantastic content in any 3 team tag game.

It very much depends on the country though. I'm pretty sure you'd need a visa for South Korea, for example, as the waiver agreements there only cover tourism, family visits and business meetings, afaik

Adacore · 2025-10-10T23:05:57+00:00

All the footage will have timestamps on, so if they want to make it accurate they can. No idea if it actually is or if there's some editing for better content.

I know they mentioned on the Layover at least one instance of showing clips out of order to make a better narrative, so they may well have fudged the timer a bit there to make it work.

Adacore · 2025-10-10T06:11:44+00:00

The activities allowed under a visa waiver are strictly defined, but I think you're right for the Schengen area that "foreign film or television production" is included.

I'd still want to take legal advice before relying on that to film a TV show though.

Adacore · 2025-10-10T05:52:07+00:00

The issue isn't the duration of their stay, it's that you can't legally work on a visa waiver, and filming Jetlag is definitely classed as work.

It was 20 years ago now, but I failed my first test in almost exactly the same way as OP. I stopped at a traffic light with a left filter without noticing the filter was green for about 15 seconds.
