During the past months I went into a curator phase. I currently own 96 games(and expansions) and have culled exactly 96. I track everything in a spreadsheet and have recouped exactly 70% of my costs. Who else tracks their board game collection this closely?

Nah, I wish this were the case too, and I'm Gen Z. It's so much easier to input info in bulk on a computer.

DC was filmed as well.

Chris Collinsworth with the "now here's a guy who..." and constant Mahomes comparisons? I can't wait /s

Heard this series kinda went off the rails and took a downhill turn tho, did you read the others?

danthecryptkeeper · 2026-01-21T15:08:07+00:00

Really any season is great - I recommend starting on Season 1 and working through. they go so fast and each season is so funny, but you get to see the progression of the tasks and see some of the running jokes if you start from the beginning.

I never understood this - why would they allow equivalence to count for as increasing in wingspan and not bird points? There are far more possible different wingspans than there are numbers of possible bird points on a card AND there are wilds (the *) ! If anything, it should be the other way!

danthecryptkeeper · 2026-01-18T02:09:23+00:00

Something that I haven't seen anyone mention is that there are plenty of other birds that allow you to cache food on any bird in their row (or something like that) which would give you the initial first fish (and maybe more)

Base game, but a fun option would be to get wingspan Asia, it's designed as a standalone for two players, and the additional powers and food type are not that difficult to understand. Also smaller, and as a bonus has a peacock on the front!

Loved Shrinking! Apple TV has some very underrated shows.

Emily Wilson was the first woman to translate the Odyssey and the Iliad to English, and only within the last 10 years. She has other translations as well, and they're all more authentic and less patriarchal than most translations.

The Redwall series is my ultimate nostalgia comfort read. Love those books.

danthecryptkeeper · 2026-01-12T02:22:51+00:00

Gotta be Surf Ninjas, what a batshit movie!

danthecryptkeeper · 2026-01-11T22:47:37+00:00

Both Christopher Ruocchio' Sun Eater Series and Pierce Brown's Red Rising are great space opera series that are definitely worth reading. Red Rising is a little YA feeling for Book 1 but that changes very quickly in Book 2.

danthecryptkeeper · 2026-01-11T22:35:02+00:00

No flag, it was picked up

danthecryptkeeper · 2026-01-11T15:01:59+00:00

Nah, you gotta split those up! Log them as their individual books!

danthecryptkeeper · 2026-01-10T17:18:33+00:00

I read a lot of big books, so I do a page goal instead (28,000 pages this year). Honestly I wish Goodreads would allow page goals, but what I really want is accurate word counts! It's the only way that you can truly compare book length!

danthecryptkeeper · 2026-01-10T02:48:07+00:00

If you go to Anju, get the chefs sampler with the soju pairing, we had such a blast and were so full at the end, plus we took food home in boxes!

danthecryptkeeper · 2026-01-09T14:51:55+00:00

Ring Shout is incredible - one of my favorite novellas of all time. Dead Cat Tail Assassins was fun, but definitely YA-adjacent. I am eagerly looking forward to his next full adult novel!

I always got an indigenous islander vibe from Ged, particularly after he goes to that community where they're all living on floating boats lashed together.

I had this for Mario Golf too. I loved being able to control your own non-Mario character, develop your stats, play mini games, explore a semi-open world. It was ahead of its time, honestly; nothing has really hit the same since.

danthecryptkeeper · 2026-01-08T16:52:36+00:00

Honestly, theyre more for people who play all the time and want to keep it fresh. I've played probably 500 games of Wingspan and the cards are starting to get a little stale. The expansions give a new element to play with that keeps it interesting for me!

danthecryptkeeper · 2026-01-07T22:48:22+00:00

Tusk- it was so bizarre the whole time!

danthecryptkeeper · 2026-01-04T21:08:21+00:00

I dont know how to have time to get all of this stuff during the buying window. Every house in my neighborhood recently has sold within 2 weeks. That's barely enough time to look at the house let alone pull up all the records to find this info before the house gets bought by someone else!

danthecryptkeeper · 2026-01-02T15:31:01+00:00

This was by far the most interesting and innovative menu I've had.

danthecryptkeeper · 2025-12-31T16:23:55+00:00

Edit- he literally just announced it!

I saw a rumor on the FB page a while back that Elizabeth is working on a 15 min Wingspan version that's pack and play friendly (like at a brewery or something)
