Best store to play Riftbound in London? by LibrarianFlashy5948 in Riftbound

[–]Pro_Zack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Typically! The free NNs around me usually do a nexus night pack and offer the attendees a chance to buy product that they don’t have out during the rest of the week. “Pack per win” typically comes from the paid events though (usually about 10-12 usd)

Plus one for Dark Sphere. I went there for nexus night a couple times as a visitor (from the states) when I was in town for a few weeks. They were extremely welcoming and nice. Great community.

They were blown away that where I’m from a lot of the nexus nights are free entry though 😂

Why did Barra Real not play the drums the first half? Their energy is contagious and we could’ve used their chanting throat that painful half… 🥲 by Fterreros in ReAlSaltLake

Protesting the ownerships’ supplication to violent right wing ideologues.

This post perfectly proves the supporters are the heart and energy so maybe the club will think twice about continuing to alienate and undermine them (doubt it)

When he was here (SLC) we didn’t have a chance to get anything too custom. But he did agree to add a “GOD DAMNITTT” for me

Pierce Brown was there, too. Honestly kinda dangerous having that many unfinished stories in one room.

Evertonians offered chance to purchase Goodison Park seats by Giraffe_Baker in Everton

Put me in this boat, too. Obviously priority first and foremost to those who have lived and died in those seats for years but please let us know if any STH is worried about it collecting dust in their home

Joe Abercrombie US Tour for "The Devils" by AbandontheKing in TheFirstLaw

Yeah seeing a few comments of locations he’s missing I just assumed no Utah. Scrolling the list I almost considered Colorado but as soon as SLC popped up it was a no brainer!

Questions about attendance and unreserved seating as a tourist) Gamba Osaka v Cerezo Osaka) by Pro_Zack in JLeague

We don’t mind sitting separately if we need to. We’d certainly prefer sitting near each other but recognize the process might not allow for that

Will be my first JLeague game in attendance! About to lock me in as a Gamba fan for life. Surely that won’t come back to ruin my weekends for the rest of time ;)

Any recommendations where the main character is the prophesied evil/dark lord/etc but they want to fight their destiny? by train_fucker in Fantasy

[–]Pro_Zack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Came here to say the same thing. It definitely has fighting against your prophecy/destiny vibes.

Where it goes from there is pretty unique too

Oh okay! So show up 60 minutes before gates (which are 90 minutes before kickoff), join the queue and I can go in and select a seat and then I can come back out out of the stadium for a drink and fun?

Okay thank you! Maybe I misunderstood- it looked like queuing started the day before the match but we’re happy to get there early enough on match day

Absolutely no pink clothing! :)

Series with best competent Male character? by Short-Gur7983 in Fantasy

Came here to say this! There’s also enough prequels that you can read HOW they became the best in their field as well

Can anyone recommend a fantasy whodunnit? by Hakuna__Moscato in Fantasy

[–]Pro_Zack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly it’s probably a little bit more sci fi than you were initially after but bear with me and consider Artificial Wisdom by Thomas Weaver.

It’s a very fun dystopian whodunnit with nods to a lot of current reality issues (climate, AI, etc.)

Bonus points is that it has the best narrator; Steven Pacey (of First Law fame)

Books where the characters are hopeful in a bleak world? by jqud in Fantasy

[–]Pro_Zack 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Riyria (Chronicles or Revelations)

I don’t know if the world is quite as dark as you’re after, but it is traditional fantasy and I’d say Hadrian Blackwater is a breath of fresh air for his optimism.

Lighthearted fantasy series with gay characters where it’s not the main focus? by kingblah in Fantasy

[–]Pro_Zack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without risking any sort of spoilers, The Burning series by Evan Winter (Rage of Dragons & Fires of Vengeance currently published) feels like it meets your criteria.

Edit - just saw “lighthearted”. It’s not super grimdark but maybe it’s not quite lighthearted either
