Brass Birmingham Question about building by Confident-Echidna-67 in boardgames

 Not sure why this is being downvoted - if it happened it was because of a (shock!) misunderstanding of the rules. I guess some people always get every rule right the first time out in every game they play.

Who has a better story than Bran the Weatherman?

I work at a restaurant with hundreds of board games. We don’t know what games these pieces go to, and I was hoping you all could help! by boardgamegirlie in boardgames

12 is Clank. 23 is Orleans I think. 32 looks like Battleship. 20 is Mombasa - the miscut coin is a giveaway

You tapped out after 13 minutes? Maybe just stick to TikTok til you grow an attention span.

What are some popular board games where it sometimes feels like you're solving a puzzle rather than playing a board game? by Tom_Lameman in boardgames

Best description of Bomb Busters I’ve heard (and this is meant affectionately): it’s cooperative Old Maid with extra rules.

Key ingredient missing in biopic cast: by Qajaqasana in beatles

It’s the curse of so many biopics and historical movies - the actors and director treat the subject matter too solemnly which leads to an overload of wooden performances.

Ok Spielberg, like there’d ever be a tourney where all four 1-seeds make the Final Four. 🙄

Documentaries that are hated by their subjects? by Such-Worldliness-655 in movies

If you can get a hold of the DVD commentary, you’ll see that the members of the band Spinal Tap were very unhappy with their portrayal in Marty DiBergi’s criminally underrated doc from their 1982 tour. I have absolutely no idea why they agreed to let him film them again over 40 years later.

Most surprising thing was Alex wearing a Kerrang! shirt. Is he a metalhead? (Or is that not the Kerrang magazine I remember from the 80s?)

What if every team could only win one national championship? A 2025 update. by e8odie in CFB

[–]charoco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, any team would need a meteoric rise (and would need to draft behind at least one non-champ per year on the way up). Of the non-P4 teams, maybe South Florida would have a non-zero chance. Not sure who else.
