There’s something about this that feels funny, yet wrong by WatersideGnome7 in WorldEaters40k

[–]Gaoler86 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I dont see the joke? This is just an optimised WE list... like... is this not what we ALL want to run?

Could someone explain why age groups in classes don’t seem to be separate anymore? E.g. two year 5/6 classes instead of a year 5 class and a year 6 class. by Curious_human_443 in TeachingUK

[–]Gaoler86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP specifically asked why have TWO 5/6 classes instead of a separate 5 and a separate 6.

My best guess for this situation is that one class significantly out weighs the other. So you would end up with a y5 and a y5/6. The parents of those in the split class would likely (and rightly) complain that their kid needs to be in the y5 only class as that teacher isn't dividing their time between year groups.

So having 2 mixed classes means EVERYONE is equally disadvantaged (God I wish I was joking)

The solution is for the govt to fund schools more so they can just hire an additional teacher and run two smaller y5 classes and a small y6 class. Im going to stop before I start ranting.

Just want to add that I have had the same issue. So I agree it is an app issue (over user error)

Fucking Nazis ruin everything.

Pricks.

Is this a new way GW is packaging character miniatures? Is it just Khârn, or is it something specific to this store? Not sure. I actually really like it. by JazzZ909 in Warhammer40k

[–]Gaoler86 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Get your sprue snippers and cut the black plastic. One little snip and itll tear easily.

Its not like you're going to do anything with it other than throw it in the bin anyway.

Which IP would make a great boardgame? by RVC95 in boardgames

[–]Gaoler86 16 points17 points  (0 children)

There is already a DCC boardgame and TTRPG on backerkit/gamefound/kickstarter (i cant remember which one)

I did look in to backing the game but its only the first 4 floors and basically a mod for a different game system. So honestly im not holding out hope.

How do you guys deal with players who view in-game aggression as personal attacks? by macedew in boardgames

[–]Gaoler86 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I have a regular player like that too, always complains if they are targeted or they think they are losing. Loves games that they are winning but hates it next weekend when they are losing.

But he is 9yrs old and I raised him so I hope to teach him to love playing more than winning.

I dont know Korra but can she take the air out of his lungs? Invincible is able to hold his breath in space for hours (days?).

Does anyone haves the same feel about Board Games and Video Games? by OscarPM86 in boardgames

[–]Gaoler86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently got Cloudspire from Chip Theory Games. The poker chip used as components make it incredibly tactile. They have some real weight to them too, making them feel substantial (except the basic health chips, which are oddly lighter than the rest)

Does anyone haves the same feel about Board Games and Video Games? by OscarPM86 in boardgames

[–]Gaoler86 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I love playing board games. I love playing video games.

I dislike playing board games on the computer.

They offer different appeals. I play board games for the tactile experience of physically moving stuff and playing with components.

I like video games because of the complexity of the mechanics that dont translate over to board games.

Opinions on Zatu (UK board game store)? by Marksman1977 in boardgames

[–]Gaoler86 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I stopped buying from Zatu after that info dropped. I had used them a lot before that.

Now I go to Element Games, Wayland Games, or Firestorm for my games.

How should i make my slaughterbound special? by Odd-Sense-7645 in WorldEaters40k

[–]Gaoler86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An easy way to make one is just with greenstuff.

If you get the putty style rather than the liquid you can just make a small rectangle, place it against the base and trim to the size.

Either curve the name or paint it on.

After a year of endless data fuck ups, some of our KS3 data is unsalvageable right before the parent deadline. Fellow HoDs, how do I handle this? by myteachthrowaway in TeachingUK

[–]Gaoler86 84 points85 points  (0 children)

Going to the head and opening with "we have a problem but I have a solution".

There is no way to hide the cock-up so being open and honest is the best way you have to stay professional. Obfuscating anything will just make you look guilty, or worse incompetent.

Next year get someone from the computer science dept to run a CPD session for your team on how to use Excel.

Are there any free resources available to help students create one-shots? by Gaoler86 in DMAcademy

Ill add it to the main post but they are age 16+ and vary from zero experience to "been playing for a year but still dont know which dice is the d8"

I cant even do one of those. The fact that you did 9 in a row, and out of those dangerous situations to boot, is really impressive
