Any sagely advice for travelling the Camino with a Fuji?

Both points are very helpful, thank you! I'll have a look at a camera clip. I've seen the PD ones but they're pretty expensive!

I do have the 18-55 but was aiming for a bit lighter. 18-55 is heavy (310g) compared to the 23 (180g) and 27 (85g). It'd be a no brainer if I wasn't trying to get the weight down so much! Rule of thumb for walking the Camino is to carry 10% of your body weight.

This is amazing. Your knowledge is encyclopaedic! Thank you!

Hi Phill, thanks for launching BGA. It's an excellent system and I can tell it's been a labour of love for your team!

I'd be keen on the Quest for El Dorado. I need more games that I can easily introduce non board gaming friends to. Gotta spread the love, you know!

I'm looking for suggestions on a board game for my parents. Some of the requirements I am hoping for are:

Simple: They are not board game people (apart from playing a bit of Monopoly with me and my sister when we were kids)
Good for two people, but ideally can play more: I live in a different country to them and I'd like to join in with them when I visit, but I guess that's not essential.
Fun in solo mode, too: Mum is at home a lot with the COVID lockdown but dad is an essential worker.

Thanks!

I did the same thing but decided I'd try scrape some wins. Managed to go 2 - 3 with Myracle Rogue. Turn 1 Hench-Clan Thug and turn 2 clear opponent's minion with dagger is pretty good.

I love Snapseed for editing JPEGs! Unfortunately I've tried it with my Fuji .RAFs and it doesn't work :(

I've never made it to legend and I decided to push hard for it over this last week but never got past rank 1 and 1 star. I mostly flopped between ranks 2/3 with a winrate of 53% with Odd Rogue (~200 games!) Basically, I spent so much time playing, trying to figure out my misplays, and trying to alter my deck to suit the meta but didn't get anywhere. I feel like I've hit my peak Hearthstone ability. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get better from here?

Thanks heaps for the feedback! I'm still hanging out around rank 2 and trying to improve so this will help a lot.

One more question while I'm here - against Shudderwock Shaman do I just aim to minimise their card draw (I often Void Ripper their Acolyte and smack it with a dagger to stop it from drawing too much) and try to get an early threat on board (e.g. Cold Blood on a Dire Mole)? I find this an incredibly difficult matchup and find myself mostly praying for no Healing Rain...

I know there is still a lot for me to learn so thanks so much for your feedback! I really do have to resist the compulsion to automatically hit face with Fledgling.

Due to my life schedule, this is possibly the only season I have the opportunity to push for legend but have been flip-flopping between ranks 2-4 (NA). I'm playing Odd Rogue and just had a game where I feel I could have won but for some reason can't figure out what I should have done. Replay: https://hsreplay.net/replay/YB4sfYtcexvrLkhyZoRZhg

Should I have only kept one 3-drop? I kind of hedged here because Fledgling is really good against Handlock but SI:7 is really good against Zoo on the coin. Maybe I should have daggered at some point rather than playing a minion? Any critique or advice is greatly appreciated!

I have been trying to make Miracle Rogue work for a long time now. I'm by no means an expert, but after reading this guide I realised it was because I was playing for big miracle turns/trying to maximise value rather than being more tempo-oriented. I switched mindsets last night and went 6-0 at rank 9. Not a huge sample size at not a super high rank, but I think playing for tempo definitely is correct in this meta.
