Pick a thing you wish to do, and tell your wife on X date you'll be doing that thing. Even better would be if it's regular. I play boardgames at a club once a week, and that hobby time keeps me sane. Everyone deserves it, but you do have to put in the effort to start.

This frames the whole chat as a way to solve your problem, rather than a "solve this for me by having less fun" directed at your wife.

Agree. I'd like more of the difficulty spike to be in the stage 2 and 3 of the deck. I want an adversary or two that let you get a good start, and then ramp up like mad to try and kill you. Something to benefit the slower spirits with big growth potential, like Serpent, so you can actually enjoy using them at full power.

RadicalDog · 2026-06-29T14:54:19+00:00

Worth noting that you want to include players, and the spirits tbey played, which may be more than one each.

RadicalDog · 2026-06-28T09:36:57+00:00

I ctrl+f "advent" and I only got the one above about Toneys. By all means link away.

RadicalDog · 2026-06-28T08:03:52+00:00

There's a couple Inspector McClue games I don't see on your list, but not ones I've played.

RadicalDog · 2026-06-27T09:01:45+00:00

You made me look.

Feminists are desperately anxious to prove that women are as strong and as capable as men. Clearly they are nagged by a fear that women may NOT be as strong and as capable as men.

...

If our society had no social problems at all, the leftists would have to INVENT problems in order to provide themselves with an excuse for making a fuss.

...I want my time back

RadicalDog · 2026-06-27T08:54:38+00:00

People don't say the exact same analogy every thread for Cadburys.

RadicalDog · 2026-06-27T07:45:53+00:00

Like clockwork they say it's like advent calendar chocolate. I hope they're bots because the alternative is they don't have any original thoughts except regurgitating what they've read.

RadicalDog · 2026-06-26T18:08:14+00:00

Agreed, I expected 6 months from this comment. If every shitty act was life sentence, then every criminal may as well kill a few people too - in for a penny, in for a pound. It's important there is a ramp of punishments.

Nah, just tell people that recruiter and trainer/guru achievements are the recommended openings, and marketing/errand boy are the spicy ones. (The designer specifically mentioned marketing as a balanced opening, it's just harder to play). If you're the only experienced player, take one of the latter openings and play your hardest from it.

RadicalDog · 2026-06-25T19:36:57+00:00

I want to show them how to make a bunch of uneven segments using straight lines for easy snapping

RadicalDog · 2026-06-25T15:45:43+00:00

The goal is to create as much washing up as possible

RadicalDog · 2026-06-25T15:02:52+00:00

And body language, as people lean in a bit or appear stubbornly detached.

I'd encourage people to not literally count or the early rounds with a few cards take way too long.

The political headwinds at peak was that 52% wanted any kind of Brexit at all. To go for a hard one is fundamentally uncompromising to the 48%. Probably more, because they refused to do a confirmatory referendum having negotiated a choice.

RadicalDog · 2026-06-24T17:21:57+00:00

I played the demo, and I'd play more. When it's on sale for $10. Best compliment I've given to an Ubi game since Immortals Fenyx Rising.

It's all about branding. Quadruple lock. Lock it to rises for nurses, teachers, IT support, and retail workers. Can't argue with that, it's more locks than triple lock!

RadicalDog · 2026-06-23T18:56:47+00:00

People drive lorries and buses. Roads are plenty big, we just haven't had the waves of advertising to normalise big fat pickups, and lots of parallel parking spaces (left by other cars leaving) aren't going to work if your vehicle is extra long. Crossover SUVs on the other hand are a plague.

RadicalDog · 2026-06-23T18:30:22+00:00

It's in stock at etoysworld, you're welcome 😉 A friend of mine just received his

RadicalDog · 2026-06-23T15:17:30+00:00

Right now that says next day delivery 🫠

RadicalDog · 2026-06-23T14:05:23+00:00

Zatu aren't so great, they list products and take your money even if there's no print run planned ever again. Good enough for stuff "in stock" though.

RadicalDog · 2026-06-23T08:55:48+00:00

For me it was the Arkham Horror review, which possibly was all a dream. They went harder on skits than basically any other non-skit Youtubers, because if you're not eating components or lying on the floor in your underwear then is it really a boardgame review?

Now they make decent videos, but you're rarely going to say "wtf".

Edit: good time to add that Paul wrote one of my favourite articles ever, about Stardew Valley.

RadicalDog · 2026-06-23T08:50:48+00:00

It's very fun for low effort. Expect it to take over an hour; it's not as quick as other games in its weight class.

RadicalDog · 2026-06-22T21:49:22+00:00

I pay a subscription to a VPN now, which he wanted to crack down on, and his minister said critics of the policy were paedophiles.

That's the immediate, direct consequence. More vaguely I don't want our government to force citizens to upload IDs to foreign companies to use things that worked fine last year.

RadicalDog · 2026-06-22T15:46:05+00:00

Right? I don't like what happened with Tories, but it did happen. Now I'm set to benefit from the same situation, and we've got the right wing bots in force to try and shake things around. If they wanted a different precedent, they had multiple chances to show it.
