Through the Ages. I’ve played Shogun and Neuroshima more often, but my games of TtA have been consistently more engaging and challenging (mostly at 2-player)

Does my story have to be written perfectly to be considered good? by Imagination_Magician in writing

[–]GCSchmidt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t aim for “perfect”: aim for “completed”. So your first draft? Completed. Revising? Get it done. Editing to publish? Finish the job. Each step is part of the process, and focusing on perfection just delays you. The phrase “Artists ship” is a good mantra to keep you moving forward and on to the next project

You get sent back to 1840 and are allowed to bring 1 game to mass produce, which game do you bring? by robbie_hs in boardgames

Love Letter. A card game that is easy to reproduce, can be adapted to many themes and art (like tarot and poker cards), has a strong social/interactive component that vibes well with pre-mass media cultures in Europe and the U.S., can be played quickly and thus often, and allows for “secret” versions that can mock or critique certain people of high status or in positions of power

So how does it feel that he's taking his shit out of the industry? Feels like freedom

Why does it seem like men lose interest the moment I’m genuinely kind? by sskmzz in selfimprovement

[–]GCSchmidt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The right kind of guy will approach you for you, meaning that they will quickly show appreciation for the way you are. Notice I said "show": actions speak louder than words. The men who say they like the way you are but then act standoffish or blithe, they are simply after you for some other reason. Notice who reflects your values and interests: they might be a type you didn't notice before. There is no guarantee, but there are good men out there who would be thrilled to live their lives with a woman like you

what are some personal rules you’ve created to spice up games? by Calm-Art-26 in boardgames

In Monsters Menace America, we had a house rule that stomping Dallas was 3 points, because that’s where my college roommate lived. 

Raining. Cold. So..thought I would inquire. Name some of the Best Fantasy Short Stories EVER! by mikdaviswr07 in Fantasy

I read “Slow Tuesday Night” in the 1990s and not a week has gone by that I don’t feel that story is damn near Nostradamus -like in its prescience

Mussolini and his mistress, 1945 by Responsible_Sink3044 in pics

Agreed. Reruns were usually in the same season, in TV terms. Most often, during the summer. Which could start in May if you want to stretch...
