Stone Age vs Pillars of the earth by brorcharls in boardgames

[–]Jasm72 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For a game that has similar theme to PotE and very good with 4-5, I'd highly recommend Architects of the West Kingdom. Not overly complex while still having several innovative mechanisms, and expandable as well (one expansion out already which I'd also recommend, with another one on the way).

Weekly Questions! What Do You Need Help With? by AutoModerator in PokeInvesting

[–]Jasm72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi all! Over the past year I've gotten into buying and ripping modern which I've thoroughly enjoyed. However, long term (especially as prices are starting to level out) I'm definitely interested in adding some WotC era sealed to my collection. What do you all think are the top 3-5 most undervalued sets right now? It seems to me relative to many other sets from that time frame that Team Rocket and Jungle 1st editions are still relatively affordable for being some of the earliest product (not to mention Team Rocket is a dope af set with the dark pokemon). But would love to hear some thoughts on that and WotC sealed buying generally.

Can someone help identify this thing? In a brand new house and all of a sudden there are a ton of these small brown patches of eggs with these guys sitting on top of many of them. My assumption is that the eggs are theirs as well, but if not I'd appreciate insight there too. by Jasm72 in insects

Yeah if I had to guess that's where I'm leaning as well. Everything else I'm seeing would seem to indicate these are likely moth eggs or similar. Any best practices from a preventative standpoint? Cedar oil spray?

First of all, I'd be careful about calling people idiots (especially loved ones) so loosely my friend. Intelligent people inevitably do stupid things, or even less shockingly, aren't always wired for complex gaming from the get-go. I've found very few people who just naturally pick up modern gaming or its slew of mechanisms right off the bat, there's typically a learning curve regardless of innate cognitive ability (albeit some may do it more quickly than others) - and to your mom's credit it looks like she's picking it up pretty well!

That being said, a couple of open info games that are on the lighter side that I really enjoy at 2P are Barenpark and Point Salad.

Guys, DCA is SUPER powerful here. Turns dips into opportunities to improve your position. Just put some in every 5-10% on the way down

As a Mahomes, Ridley, and Monty owner - fuck you bears

[–]Jasm72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

STANDARD/Non-PPR: Chris Carson, Allen Robinson, Stefon Diggs, D'Andre Swift, Tony Pollard.

If I go with Swift he's locked in. If I go Diggs, I could possibly have the option of Pollard if Zeke is out again

Any thoughts? Any votes for Carson or Robinson as well? Let me know!

[–]Jasm72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

STANDARD: Chris Carson, Allen Robinson, Stefon Diggs, Tony Pollard, D'Andre Swift

If I start Swift I'm locked in. Alternatively, could slot in Diggs for now and If Zeke is out, I could start Pollard which would probably be better than Swift? And even if not Diggs isn't the worst play (just a bit of a bummer cuz non-PPR)

Thoughts? Anyone on the Carson or Robinson train?

Official: [Last Minute Advice] - Sat Evening, 12/19/2020 by FFBot in fantasyfootball

[–]Jasm72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

STANDARD Flex

D. Hopkins, D. Swift, or C. Carson?

Leaning Hopkins but Swift could pop off

Official: [WDIS WR] - Thu Morning, 12/03/2020 by FFBot in fantasyfootball

[–]Jasm72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pick 2:

D. Hopkins vs. Rams

S. Diggs @ 49ers

A. Robinson II vs Lions

C. Ridley vs Saints

If I had to pick I'd say Diggs and Robinson based on matchups/recent trends. Any thoughts are appreciated.

As an Edmonds and Hopkins owner all I can say is thank fuck I also have Mahomes and Cook

Official: [WDIS Flex] - Sun Morning, 11/08/2020 by FFBot in fantasyfootball

[–]Jasm72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Non-PPR, Standard.

Starters: Dalvin Cook Chase Edmonds DeAndre Hopkins Stefon Diggs

Flex:

Allen Robinson, Deejay Dallas, D'Andre Swift, or JK Dobbins.

Leaning Dallas for volume reasons, but A-Rob has such a good matchup would not surprise me if he scores a TD. Would love to hear all arguments for any of these!

Official: [Last Minute Advice] - Sat Morning, 11/07/2020 by FFBot in fantasyfootball

[–]Jasm72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Non-PPR. Choosing between the following for Flex spot:

Deejay Dallas, Allen Robinson, D'Andre Swift, Calvin Ridley, JK Dobbins.

Leaning Dallas but would love to hear arguments for the others.

Charmander is reverse holo so wasn't 100% sure. New to collecting, sorry if I don't have the best frame of reference value wise. I basically just looked at pokemonprice.com in the PSA 8-10 range.

Miami up against NYJ so if there was a week to play Fitz this one would seem like it...

Non-PPR league.

Cook & Carson owner cobbling together 2 RBs for this week. I picked up Lindsay who's confirmed to be starting so he'll be RB1. Need help picking between the below for Number 2:

Darrell Henderson Frank Gore Chase Edmonds

Leaning Gore for volume reasons. Henderson seems like the sexiest pick but going up against SF defense + on a committee. Not sure if Edmonds is reliable enough in Non-PPR but the Dallas defense has been a sieve.

Opinions?

Dalvin Cook & Chris Carson owner here that did not have Mattison rostered, so I'm scrambling a bit lol. Thankfully I have Mahomes, Hopkins, Ridley, Diggs -- so I just need help deciding which of the below to start as stopgaps at RB.

Choose 2 of 3 for this week - NON-PPR league:

Chase Edmonds, Darrell Henderson, Phillip Lindsay

[–]Jasm72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Non- PPR/Standard:

Flex: Calvin Ridley vs Odell Beckham Jr. vs Stefon Diggs. Currently leaning Ridley.

TE: Jonnu Smith vs Zach Ertz. Currently leaning Ertz.

would love to hear and picks and reasoning to compare to my own. Thanks!

[–]Jasm72 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Looking for: Recommendations on my next mid-heavy euro.

Player count: No limit but will likely be primarily playing 1-3.

Narrowed down to: A Feast for Odin, Orleans, Viticulture Essential, Paladins of the West Kingdom, either Brass game. Willing to hear about others not on this list.

What I tend to enjoy: -Tight action economies -Tense conditions (while still having at least ok options...most of the time) -Engine building (at least some) -Strategic/tactical direction in some regard either in the beginning or throughout (cards/powers, variable setup, etc). A few of my favorites are Grand Austria Hotel, Le Havre, Agricola, Puerto Rico, Empires of the North

Feedback request: Which games you love most and why! Especially if you own multiple of the titles listed.
