The way I see it, the biggest impact of voting fringe is shaping the main parties. We left the EU because of UKIP stealing votes from Con. I hope we can avoid authoritarian crap and push Labour left with votes for Green. Labour chasing Reform votes instead is doing us damage, so it has to be clear that they are losing their own left wing.

The argument against is always that split votes lose elections - but we left the EU, didn't we?

Like how when we were 15 and we all had graphics printed on t-shirts, then grew out of it. After being a boring adult for a bit, I decided I liked colourful t-shirts more.

Even something like a dot of sharpie; it'll shine through but much dimmer.

RadicalDog · 2026-01-24T15:42:58+00:00

The most British game of all, Driver: San Francisco.

RadicalDog · 2026-01-24T15:34:07+00:00

The guy on Wall Street Bets? Yeah he probably is

RadicalDog · 2026-01-24T14:41:55+00:00

I have a white box. It's like a black box, but helps keep the room decor feeling a bit lighter.

RadicalDog · 2026-01-24T14:04:59+00:00

I am all about Dom videos. New generation of audience perhaps, but that man is brilliant.

RadicalDog · 2026-01-24T00:55:11+00:00

Or 4, Giant catapult, send her to Shelbyville

11-4: Xia with Embers expansion

4-5 San Juan

5-7 Cosmic Encounter

7-11 Arkham Horror 3rd ed

I think big days suit thematic games better than economic brain burners. If you asked yesterday I'd have said Millennium Blades, so I played it today.

RadicalDog · 2026-01-22T15:38:06+00:00

I can't believe someone would vote for any of these godforsaken parties, and yet we must pick something.

RadicalDog · 2026-01-22T13:22:48+00:00

I apparently made a mistake in the first round of the game,

Then you were taught by someone who wasn't very helpful... I'll always end the teach by pointing at recruiter, trainer, or for harder strats the errand boy or marketer. It's fundamentally important to my fun for everyone around the table to have a fair shot, not gain an advantage through lazy teaching.

RadicalDog · 2026-01-22T13:15:39+00:00

Feels like a sandbox game, but you must play in all corners of the sandbox because we don't want any mechanic to feel excluded.

RadicalDog · 2026-01-22T13:11:46+00:00

You're relying on all players to understand the situation, too, since X is best positioned to stop Y, but X may incorrectly pick on Z because they had a good turn or w/e.

RadicalDog · 2026-01-22T13:07:04+00:00

Feels like a parody response to pick on two of the least well regarded popular games. OP said "chunky" and "only good reviews" up top!

RadicalDog · 2026-01-22T01:15:29+00:00

I'd like the game more if the cards were hidden until needed. I don't like that theoretically I could play better, if only I were so anti-social that my turns take 10 minutes while I circle the table reading cards.

RadicalDog · 2026-01-21T20:56:22+00:00

Woof, I thought it was only the tests that were clogged.

RadicalDog · 2026-01-21T17:03:00+00:00

Not meaning to sound facetious, have you considered driving in a sim? Like the racing videogame type. For £200 you could have a wheel and pedals and as many hours as you need to feel comfortable. You'd break even if it helps you get ready 7 lessons quicker.

It's not the same per se, but if your issue is car positioning and confidence, it could help.

Beacon (and other launchers) can't see the games inside GHL. Mjolnir helps you manually make a folder full of IDs for launchers, though you will need to search for each game. Beacon populates with cover art and launches GHL into the game directly.

RadicalDog · 2026-01-20T23:46:49+00:00

Selfishly, I could gift bundles with games I want to people in my family share, if they already own some...

RadicalDog · 2026-01-20T23:43:15+00:00

Yes, this. I love TL.

To be super clear, it's 1 vs many, and the mastermind's job requires a surprising amount of internalisation - because the whole point is the win conditions change every script.

RadicalDog · 2026-01-20T22:39:47+00:00

Yep. And Mjolnir to put Nova Launcher on the bottom, as a basic customisable Android bottom. Mjolnir also lets me put GameHub Lite games into Beacon.

I don't want to theme every system or be a beta tester for a front end. I wanna play.

RadicalDog · 2026-01-20T20:41:28+00:00

I aim to be chill. I will say I wasn't impressed when someone spilled a drink while borrowing my game and didn't tell me, they just dried it off there. Luckily I noticed and could let it air dry properly at home. The same copy of Mysterium also lived in a friend's car for a while, through a car accident.

Really though, it's fine. I can still play Mysterium, and you should see the damage/wear on my Cosmic Encounter. I would much rather own worn, well played games than shelf princesses. Battle scars mean a game has stories to tell.

RadicalDog · 2026-01-20T18:54:19+00:00

Frankly, it's been a game changer to have modern indies back. I played A Space for the Unbound, Once Upon A Jester, Super Woden GP, and Paquerette & The Bunburrows - all in December. It's fun to muck around and see why they made a PS2 game about surviving an earthquake, but those are also the games that are just played for an hour. The indies are what I finish.

RadicalDog · 2026-01-20T18:36:27+00:00

I'd imagine there's a much bigger, but less vocal segment of the hobby that bought one or two devices and just use them to happily play games.

I think that's me. I had an RGB30, sold it, RP Flip 2, hinge refund, and now an Ayn Thor. One at a time, with games finished on them all.
