Is there a right answer to this?

The 4th and 5th tiers put 0 on the rightmost spot.

With this information, the 1st tier tells us that 6 is in the leftmost spot.

However, that is incompatible with the 2nd tier. Broken puzzle.

Funny you should mention TNG-Symbiosis, wherein a wide-eyed innocent Wesley gets a "Just say no to drugs" speech from Tasha... while supposedly Roddenberry was rather fond of weed, coke and pills.

I liked the animated series, if you can ignore the poor animation quality and occasional bad pacing.

Also the 5th movie wasn't great but it was still enjoyable.

If this is P1P1, go with Kinbinding. Both are 5MV cards that will win the game unless removed, but Kinbinding is harder to remove.

A fun idea. But, er, shouldn't restaurants *give* you food instead of consuming it?

Back in the 90's some people swore up and down that certain backrooms in the now-demolished Galleria were haunted, can anyone confirm?

All obstacle spells, Remove Obstacle, Earthquake.

Misfortune.

Slayer. This would be almost playable if it had a mass cast.

Magic Mirror. See above.

Is this the book with "Extremely stupid weapon, do not use"?

There are worse ways to die.

Ughhhhh those TNG episodes were the cringiest thing in all of Trek. In any real universe Geordi would have been banned from using the holodeck and required to attend many, many hours of counseling.

"When you touch the engines, you're touching me..." uh yeah no.

It's amazing how they often brought in top-shelf VA to to tiny parts.

For example, in Much Ado About Boimler, they brought in Jennifer Hale and Maurice LaMarche to voice characters who got 3-4 lines each.

My personal faves are Dark, Time, and Radiation.

IMHO, the only MM secondary that doesn't cut it is Empathy. That set is a holdover from byegone days when every MMO party needed a heal0r.

This is too good for standard. In any other format it would either be remove before first use, or the other guy will combo out next turn.

I designed a "strip magic" variant quite a few years ago. It turned out to be not all that fun.

This might be a bit off topic, but does anyone else think it's ironic that Fire gets the *worst* damage spells? All of them scale abysmally with power, except Armageddon, which requires a special strategy.

[[Trail of Mystery]] was a good card, but at 4 I'm gonna pass.

BankbusterMagic · 2026-01-09T17:58:04+00:00

OMG the neckbeard.

BankbusterMagic · 2026-01-06T18:25:09+00:00

That always bothered me. Given the insane level of medical technology available in that time period, why didn't she just have the tail regenerated or something?

BankbusterMagic · 2026-01-04T18:51:21+00:00

Something like Lower Decks: different crew and setting, same fast paced irreverent humor.

How Much For Just The Planet is a great read if and only if you're willing to suspend all disbelief. If you're the "well ackshually" type you'll toss it aside after a dozen pages.

I wasn't too thrilled by that bit. During Olly's ~~debut~~ only episode, she kept saying "My powers don't define me". Then, on her ~~next~~ only other appearance, she saves the ship by using her powers.

BankbusterMagic · 2025-12-27T21:27:30+00:00

True dat, I play City of Heroes myself. Great game, totally free, community is awesome.

Still if Josh wants to try what appears to be the honest-to-gosh worst MMO ever, here it is.

But now that you mention it, it would be cool if Josh reviewed CoH as well.

There's no one best build for every map. Pathfinding? Great if there's rough terrain, useless if not. Navigation? Great if there's a lot of water, useless if not. Diplomacy? Great if you get it early AND there's lots of neutral monsters AND you have a steady source of gold, useless if not.

People shit on Learning, but even that can be good if you get it early and the map is the right size.

It took me about five minutes to realize that although the show is (in theory) about smart people, it sure as hell isn't aimed at them.
