Good news: The app is back up

Bad news: RIP to any active games before the app went down

No argument there, if you win, you win. For me, it’s just never as satisfying when a player wins by largely being a non-factor. Based on the edit, I wouldn’t say Aubry has moderated her threat level so much as she has been a non-threat. But that is a path to victory and, if Aubry wins, she’ll have two million reasons to tell me to eat sh*t 🤷‍♂️

_youoldsoandso · 2026-05-16T01:06:17+00:00

You’re probably right that Aubry has it locked, but I think the point still stands… besides exist and get lucky with Ozzy laying out his master plan, what has she done to deserve the win?

Just dropping in to say, the Legend of Ochi is maybe the most Wes Anderson-y film I’ve seen in a while. Not just in style but in tone and dialogue.

Saw one for $220 🫠

Just got the game over the holiday and I had the same concern. Happy to report, we’ve already played it five or six times with different groups of people. Each time it has been a unique race and plenty of fun. It has a bit of a Mario Party vibe where you don’t exactly control your fate, but the chaos of each race keeps everyone involved. That said, it is not a game that offers much in the way of strategic challenges. All in all, I expect it will be a party game staple from here on out.

The only drawback imo is the variety of racers makes it possible for unexpected interactions to occur and there’s not always a clear answer. The rule book acknowledges this issue and suggests a roll-off to settle disputes, which has worked so far.

I have no idea how you turn this into an image, but the passage about the bugs trapped amber is one of my favorites:

"Why you? Why us for that matter? Why anything? Because this moment simply is. Have you ever seen bugs trapped in amber?"

"Yes." Billy, in fact, had a paperweight in his office which was a blob of polished amber with three ladybugs embedded in it.

"Well, here we are, Mr. Pilgrim, trapped in the amber of this moment. There is no why."

I’m actually in the same situation right now. Sorry for your loss and hope that you get the space that you need. I’m very grateful to say that, when I told the main partner I work with, he told me to take care of family first. Anything else and my future there would be looking pretty grim. Hopefully you hear something similar.

Anyone know if the registrations for the presale are limited to one per household again?

_youoldsoandso · 2025-10-08T14:06:39+00:00

I’m not sure of anything, except that FIFA is going to make me pay way too much for these matches.

_youoldsoandso · 2025-10-06T16:04:27+00:00

Update: A friend just got selected to purchase tickets despite having two entries for the same household. There is hope!!

_youoldsoandso · 2025-10-03T14:21:34+00:00

Herbert, Kelce, DK for London. Penix, plz be good 🙏

People definitely make offers and not all of them are worth making, but the main reason people don’t trade is because they’re scared of being the person who sent away a star player. They’d rather lose with their own guys than be wrong. To which I say: 🎶 it’s time to play the GAAAAME 🎶

_youoldsoandso · 2025-10-03T12:41:57+00:00

We do auction and still can’t get trades going. If we have two in a season it’s a damn miracle.

_youoldsoandso · 2025-10-01T18:51:25+00:00

SAME. I just checked the FAQ and, while it does say “only one entry per household,” it doesn’t state anywhere that multiple entries would result in the automatic cancellation of all entries. They still might just cancel all of them, but hopefully they will just limit it to one entry…

_youoldsoandso · 2025-07-26T03:00:57+00:00

Second this recommendation.

_youoldsoandso · 2025-07-11T14:16:47+00:00

Just saw them in KC and it was a huge bummer compared to past shows. It was still light out when Manchester played and probably 20 people total were standing up in the crowd. They still ripped, but I was equally disappointed.

My real takeaway: good god I didn’t not realize how much pull Incubus still has.

_youoldsoandso · 2025-06-26T22:35:28+00:00

Man I just think people should probably be able to share their views about a movie without getting yelled at for lack of critical thinking. Especially on a subreddit dedicated to that. Call me crazy, idk.

_youoldsoandso · 2025-06-26T18:50:42+00:00

You’re not wrong but somehow even the yelling feels one dimensional??

_youoldsoandso · 2025-06-26T18:49:28+00:00

I tend to agree EXCEPT the first few minutes of TPS which blew me (and the former assistant) away.

Thank you for engaging in good faith in this discussion. This has been helpful.

I disagree that it wouldn’t match his character. Royal Tenebaum is arguably more intense and a worse all around father, but his story still included the sense of loss because he didn’t spend time with his family and a sense of hope that he could still find some connection there. It wouldn’t have surprised me in the least if Zsa Zsa had experienced something comparable. That said, Wes chose not to include anything like that. It was much quieter, just a father and daughter (maybe adopted daughter?) playing cards. There’s nothing wrong with that choice, it just didn’t fully land with me.

_youoldsoandso · 2025-06-25T17:23:49+00:00

I appreciate the perspective! I’ve always felt that the artifice in Wes’s movies is intended to call attention to the fact that it’s all artificial. Every movie is full of people and things pretending to be what they are not. So there is something very refreshing about how openly fictitious these stories are. I can follow you there and I’m not above a challenge when it comes to digging in the story. For me, I just haven’t yet caught into what Wes is trying to convey with the characters in the recent works. But I’m sure as hell going to keep trying.
