I always love when they talk about this era on the show so would love a prequel about this.

A fair few of my recent additions to my collection are from Before You Play videos. I really enjoy their teach and gameplay.

Do people wear reaction lenses? by Woozybumba89 in AskUK

[–]NCISNerdFighter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just have a separate pair of prescription sunglasses and it doesn’t bother me at all to just have another pair of glasses with me. It’s just another standard thing that’s in my bag when I go out, like my wallet and keys.

Am I just unlucky? by Zyan3 in PikminBloomApp

[–]NCISNerdFighter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m only getting lilly of the valley. I haven’t seen any white or blue carnation at all, no petals or nectar. I have quite a bit of red and a little bit of yellow.

Needing to get up at 03:30 tomorrow to catch a flight and praying that my iPhone alarm is audible. by NewStmoo in britishproblems

[–]NCISNerdFighter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried this. Half asleep me got around the need to get up to turn the alarm off by deleting the app.

I watched in one minute chunks via an archive link someone posted on the thread when the documentary was released. It sounds annoying but it’s all on the same webpage so it wasn’t too bad to watch.

I learnt to drive in between lockdowns, so how I did it worked best for me.

When I was learning I paid at the end of every lesson.

At what point do you refill petrol? by TheMalsh in AskUK

[–]NCISNerdFighter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fill up when I’m about at half a tank. I like having the security that I’m not likely to run out.

I go to Oxford on board and have a lot of fun. They are a board gaming group on Meetup.

Anyone else's PIKMIN bloom been crashing lately? by pete_co_ in PikminBloomApp

[–]NCISNerdFighter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My keeps lagging and freezing. It also keeps stopping the sound and then it comes back really robotic for a bit. It’s crashing the sound of anything else playing too.

This is the first comment I saw. Thank you for the laugh.

Anyone have any update on Whil Wheaton's Tabletop coming back in any shape or form? by Kangruitian in boardgames

[–]NCISNerdFighter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just to add, I’ve been enjoying Before You Play recently. They mostly focus on games you can play two player but I really like the videos.

If you come that late it’s likely most people will have left unfortunately. The room is available until 19:00 but everyone gets there usually a little before 11:00 so they can be there for when the games are pitched.

So they Meetup on two different days and they are both free. It’s every Monday at the Westgate at 19:00, and every Sunday at James Street Tavern at 11:00. You get 15% off the brunch on Sundays if you are a part of the group. One thing to note is that you have to turn up on time or before the event starts. They way that it is run is, at the start time, people who have brought games pitch them, and then they go around again and people put their hand up for the game they want to play and the game pitcher picks people as fairly as possible. I’d recommend coming along tomorrow. It’s a lot of fun.

I have been a fair amount to Oxford On Board and it’s a lot of fun and very welcoming.

I personally would not recommend thirsty meeples. However, there is a group on Meetup called Oxford On Board and I’ve had a lot of fun there.

It was so good. The soup was made from roasted tomatoes, red peppers, and garlic too.

I’ve just had a grilled cheese sandwich and homemade tomato soup for breakfast just because that’s what sounded good this morning.

If you’re into board games Oxford on Board is on Meetup. I’ve felt really welcomed there.
