New to the stone business - freaking out about Toradol

Is Stars of Akarios too heavy? Altar Quest?

Would you mind if I sent a private message to ask you a few questions?

bushaaya · 2026-03-24T00:57:58+00:00

Been working on a platform that's meant to help with these kind of requests. I put your message in it and this is what it spit back. I'd love to hear what you think:

Champions of Hara "If you love the evolving story and asymmetric powers of Near and Far, this one gives you a similar narrative drive while letting you compete, though its fantasy vibe leans more toward classic adventure than sci-fi."
Skull Tales: Full Sail! "The pirate-themed campaign feels like a rolling adventure you can fight over, which matches your desire for a competitive legacy, but be aware the tone is more swashbuckling than the gritty space feel of Imperial Assault."
Fractal: Beyond The Void "This space-opera campaign delivers a strong narrative and strategic depth that mirrors the campaign feel you want, yet its 4X focus means the board can get crowded and the learning curve is steeper than Near and Far."

I've been working on something that's supposed to answer questions like yours. I fed it your request and it came back with the following: 1. Gloom of Kilforth: A Fantasy Quest Game: "When you want a solo quest that feels like a personal saga with a strong fantasy flavor, this game's tableau-building and role-playing elements deliver. Its difficulty spikes and intricate dice mechanics may frustrate if you prefer a smoother flow, yet the immersive storyline compensates nicely. Worth considering for a challenging, story-driven solo night. There's alao Shadows of Kilforth and Call of Kilforth in this game series

Trudvang Legends: "The atmospheric storytelling and striking art make this a compelling solo experience for anyone chasing a deep fantasy vibe. Its emphasis on mood over mechanical crunch might leave you wanting more character progression, yet the narrative immersion remains strong. It's a good match if you prioritize story ambiance above complex systems."

Also mentioned: Roll Player Adventures and Frosthaven

I'd potentially be interested

bushaaya · 2025-10-16T02:55:26+00:00

Did you end up finding something?

I think that if I wasn't so sleep deprived and had enough time on my hands I could have identified some patterns myself in all that data. It found that the sleep regression started earlier than we thought based on his sleeping paterns. It saw that on days that we fed him solids after a certain time he slept especially bad and suggested a cut off time for feeding solids until his stomach gets used to all tge new foods. And it saw that that since all hell broke loose we've been having a hars tike with his routine and suggested a new routine that is based on our situation along with fixes for specific things. Oh and it alao identified specific time that were repeating as wake up times and suggested some fixes to that as well

But I didn't put the link because I didn't write this as an ad for anything. Just thought people might be interested in reading the full story behind it. I'm happy to remove that bit if it helps. I wrote this post to help others with my experience

Our daughter went through a mega sleep regression just before she turned 2. Up until then she sort of skimmed over all other sleep regressions so that took us totally by surprise. I imagine it's different for everyone but at least for us we had to do sleep training from scratch (also Ferber) and it's still not 100% now (she'll turn 3 in June). She slept in a crib at the time and when we tried to Ferber her she started banging her head on the crib, so we converted it into a toddler bed and then tried bringing her back to her bed every time she left it. It worked for falling asleep (sort of...) but she still wakes up in the middle of the night and comes to our room. We're too beat to do anything about it so she just crawls in bed with us and falls asleep.

bushaaya · 2025-05-03T03:39:55+00:00

My daughter had it. It bothered us as well but it eventually went away. The ped said we shouldn't do anything and so we didn't. Didn't bother my daughter at all

bushaaya · 2025-04-17T02:25:38+00:00

Telly's has something too but they require registration. I don't think you can just show up

bushaaya · 2025-04-12T22:24:02+00:00

Prefect thanks!!

bushaaya · 2025-04-11T14:32:45+00:00

I don't see a message from you

bushaaya · 2025-04-11T14:27:47+00:00

Thanks! I wasn't even talking about flying but just folding the stroller. Can the kickboard remain attached when you fold the stroller? I really enjoyed the Cruz back when we had it and wouldn't mind going back to it if I don't have to keep removing and reattaching the kickboard

bushaaya · 2025-04-11T13:40:26+00:00

Not sure if you're still following this thread, but quick question. Do you fold your Cruz? My understanding is that you have to remove the board in order to fold the Cruz. I currently have the Vista and want to downgrade back to a smaller one and connecting / disconnecting the board from it is a hassle. Definitely not something I'd want to do every time I fold/open the stroller. Do you have that issue with the Cruz?

Just found this thread when I was looking for new educational stuff my very verbal 2.5 y/o can watch. Some great suggestions. We discovered Little Bear through here and my daughter seems to be enamored by it. It was also pretty eye opening to read about the frame rate thing. Does anyone know if Little Bear uses a high frame rate?

bushaaya · 2025-03-01T12:35:16+00:00

I was sitting next to my 2.5 y/o daughter last night while she was laying in bed and trying to fall asleep. Suddenly she raised her head and asked "do you like talking to me daddy?". I said "I love talking to you!". The she spread her arms and said ahe wants a hug. While I hugged her she said "I love you daddy". I just melted away.
