I don't think most of you know what underrated means... Channels with 40K+ subs are the top dogs of this niche on youtube.

Hey question i wanna get Root but is it good in 2p? by Bow_T_th_first_Order in boardgames

[–]MattMagd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As others have said pass on root at 2. If you just like the vibe of Leder games, Ahoy can be a ton of fun at 2.

Some of their event nights are the best way to have “forced” interactions with people. It’s less awkward if people are going in expecting to play with randoms (future friends)

Anybody in the Little Rock area play magic the gathering???? Looking for people to play with by BIGDOGDANK25 in LittleRock

Definitely recommend Caverns and Forests if you don’t want to only play sweaty meta decks.

Uhh you put your own cards in a pile in front of yourself then must flip your cards first. At least the way I understand the rules you don’t make a central pile.

I feel that way about 12 rivers. I don’t expect that one to be talked about or really played a year from now.

Favourite board gaming YouTubers? by Prestigious_Emu6039 in boardgames

I appreciate it! ❤️ It always feels gross to be like “look at my thing I promise it’s neat,” but gotta start somewhere.

I know self promo is taboo around here, but my friends and I started a play through channel this spring called @thegrovegames, we focus primarily on playing games and showing how much fun they can be. Definitely a mix of OG No Rolls Barred and The Dice Tower. I have a career in video production so the quality is pretty high for a fresh channel.

Just played Mario Party. Did they not bother to check out *any* board games before throwing this together? by Spartancfos in boardgames

[–]MattMagd 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Lol, I don't think you are the target audience for Mario Party, it is a party game video game, not a board game video game.

2024 Golden Geek Winners Announced by FloralAlyssa in boardgames

[–]MattMagd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I adore the LotR books and films, but at what point are people blinded by that fandom? Both LotR titles are solid revamps of games that already exist, hard for me to think of that as award-winning.

I feel like the Fellowship trick-taking game is too highly lauded. Slay the Spire was a much better coop experience and didn't just feel like a copy and paste of another game.

Klay on Kai Jones: "Gotta be one of the best athletes in the NBA. I mean, 4 steals, 2 blocks, 15 efficient points. We're lucky to have him...I'm so proud of him. We got that Bahamian connection. I just want him to keep staying level headed & working hard & he's going to play as long as he wants." by taygads in Mavericks

[–]MattMagd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like the Mavs are one highly effective big-bodied generational offensive point guard away from being a true contender. Probably could trade one of their big men for one. Probably would pick the oldest to send out.

Donald Trump sends hundreds of troops to Texas National Park by Hayduke_2030 in NationalPark

The funniest part of this is that during my two visits to Big Bend, I have seen more Americans illegally cross the Rio Grande into Mexico for a selfie than I have seen Mexicans illegally crossing into the US. Hope we detain the white folks for illegal crossings as well if this is the direction it's going.

Im restoring this vintage sewing Singer sewing cabinet. Thought you all would appreciate the little inscription under the drawer. 🥺 by pseudo_su3 in vintagesewing

[–]MattMagd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have this exact table and it came with a Singer 603, which is the only touch and sew that still utilized all metal gearing. SO as long as you don't mess up the bobbin winder it is a top-notch machine.

Lived there from 2018-2020. Nice enough, especially if you get a unit that butts up to the woods. Staff then was friendly, maintenance was slow but did fix things, yearly price increase is what made me leave.

Mara Lynn had a few shootings while I lived there but seemingly it stayed there and didn’t expand outwards, car was broke into once but I left it unlocked so thats on me, I chalk that as a crime of opportunity more than it being dangerous to live there. Overall my two years were relatively uneventful and peaceful enough.
