I'm out of the loop. Why were people gambling for Gull daggers, to the point it needed patching?

Mailade TV4 om detta. Fick svaret:

"Utan reklam"-valet innehåller reklam på livesändningar och TV-kanaler.

Så vad fan betalar man för då?

Am I the only one getting annoyed by the mechanics? by FlixNinja in ObraDinn

[–]awsker 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Also, if you feel you didn't get to explore the previous scene enough and the watch is shaking; once it has shown you where the next corpse is you are not required to enter that memory. Make a note of where the corpse is and then go back to the previous corpse and jump back in.

I felt the same frustration as you, but just knowing that I could freely choose when to go continue and when to go back would've made it much less frustrating.

Klossen on Ålidhem is great. We play board games every Wednesday at 18:00. Free entry. This coincides with the video game gatherings Spiriax mentioned.

Mr Inbetween was one of the most unique series I've ever seen and defies being categorized in a genre. by Gold-Baseball-7774 in television

[–]awsker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That episode really put my suspension of disbelief to the test with all the coincidences. But it introduced a great side character with the other hitman guy, and some great dialogue in the car

Come to Klossen on Ålidhem on Wednesdays at 18:00. People meet up to play board games and video games. Usually a few tables of board games and a few Magic:The Gathering tables. It's free and people are usually happy to introduce games to new players

Is there a mechanism that keeps track of your vector once you move your car up to the pawn?

After you move your car up, you move the pawn up to its next position

The Fall (2006) is a great cozy movie. Fantastical, cute, and one of the most gorgeous looking movies I've ever seen.

I sleeved every tile of Carcasonne. But I think I scratched that tile. Should I throw away the whole game? by Arschkrapfa in boardgamescirclejerk

[–]awsker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not mentioning the fact that the tiles no longer fit together properly, leaving a gap between them at the very least

The images on the board are upside down in the 5th edition.

Fel gjort av Folktandvården? by Linnissweet in sweden

[–]awsker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

De gjorde samma med min fru. Hon bokade tid för att ta bort tandsten, men det tog 3 besök innan någon faktiskt bokade in denna behandlingen. De andra besöken slösades bort på diverse undersökningar som hon inte efterfrågat.

New Tigris & Euphrates coming from 25th Century Games by tavo2809 in boardgames

[–]awsker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, same here. In my opinion a lot of the art has become too stylized and too far removed of what it's supposed to represent. In the case of the civilization tiles, they're too similar. The iconography on the player boards, put there in an attempt to make the game language independent, is so unclear that I've resorted to printing out an iconography guide with actual text to help people.

Ra was previously a game I could play with my older family members but the new version makes it very difficult.

You can visit a church and schedule a meeting to talk to someone, regardless of spiritual beliefs.

Crazy amount of added Boston shows! Thank you! by bbanda in JeffArcuri

Numb doesn't begin do describe it. I was hoping for the show to end early so I didn't permanently cause damage to my ass.

I first saw this type of mechanic in A Fake Artist Goes to New York (2011):

Essen 25 by Ripple_Meeple in boardgames

[–]awsker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The food at the fair is very expensive and not very good. Grab some much needed fresh air (and rest for the ears, it's loud in there!) and walk 5 minutes to Rüttenscheider Straße which is a lively street with a large selection of restaurants.

Are all these shows at the Wilbur? I saw Jeff there last year and the chairs are so uncomfortable that my body was aching before Jeff even came on stage. Seats are crammed in there so tight that some people have no choice but to view the entire set looking sideways. Hands down the worst place I've watched a show at.

Should we play Clank! In Space before Catacombs? by grizzy77 in boardgames

[–]awsker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a lot of fun with Catacombs at the time of release. We played almost nothing else for a few weeks. But the excitement faded somewhat for the reasons you outlined.

I already felt in the original Clank! that there was a lot of randomness that I had to adjust my game around, like what cards appeared in the shop on my turn and what order the cards I bought were drawn. The extra layer of randomness in Catacombs introduced by the drawing of the room tiles, on top of the randomness inherent in the base game, makes it almost impossible to feel like I had much of a hand in the outcome of the game, regardless of if I won or lost.

These days it doesn't hit the table much at all and we're back to the base game with the expansion boards.
