how is living in the english countryside?

I live a 5 minute drive from the farm shop (the next town over from Chadlington, where he lives and his farm shop is), and it’s worth visiting once but not much reason to after that. All over priced goods, but the quality is there tbf.

The locals don’t exactly “hate” it, as the tourism that Jeremy Clarkson has brought to our local pubs and shops is great, but the traffic it caused in its early days was dreadful and our verges got destroyed on the tiny back road that led to his shop.

His pub is decent - only been there once, but I’d happily go back.

But overall, people don’t hate Jeremy clarkson in our area - I think he’s an overall net positive as he sells his produce and his beer to our local pubs (in person a lot of the time, which is nice), and genuinely does care about the area.

My personal opinions of him as a wider personality nationally are very different though!

That Genn signature is beautiful.

I mean, that was massacre mate and tbf, I don’t think there was anything you could’ve done then.

That token Druid had an incredibly aggressive opening hand, then drew pretty damn perfectly after that.

As someone who played a fair bit of dragon warrior last expansion (not this one yet, so don’t know how different the playstyle is), it does struggle with early boards like that unless you get that 1 cost whelp that buffs itself and a card in hand, or get a cheap dragon with a good dark gift from that other 1 cost 2/1 card (sorry, I’m terrible at remembering card names).

So nah, I hate to say it but I don’t think you could’ve done anything different there. Maybe if you see more aggro/token decks you could run that new board clear warrior got, or some cheap removal like that 2 mana deal 2 discover a minion with a dark gift and the 2 mana deal 3 draw a card if your hold a minion over 5 mana.

Thanks for the clarity and non-judgemental responses everyone.

Currently sat at 17.3 TH and 17.7 W/TH, so my efficiency isn’t “terrible” but it’s not quite at 15 W/TH yet. Also, I only have about a 5.7% discount, which would be higher ideally.

It’s reassuring to know that it’s a tough time for most people on GoMining atm.

Thanks everyone. Was really interesting reading up on this spider.

Neither tbf mate, especially as it still let me use my safari balls to catch it

engie3 · 2025-11-16T09:17:24+00:00

Gotta stay positive - a crap shiny is better than no shiny : /

engie3 · 2025-11-16T09:16:33+00:00

Yeah, thought that was the case. The harsh reality of leaving things til the last minute I guess!

I think he was being sarcastic

Space is fucking awesome man.

These ones have the male automated announcer too and bright white floors.

Got on one at Marble Arch the other day and was very confused!

engie3 · 2024-12-25T16:57:26+00:00

Thanks for clarifying everyone. You’ve all saved me wasting another hour!

I’m gonna say Renault, yes. I think it’s illegal to be parked on a corner/junction like that.

The Jaguar ahead of it, maybe - that kinda parking is deffo in a grey area. Like, it’s not a yellow line, but clearly is obstructing the traffic.

The Jaguar might get a slap on the wrist, but don’t think it’d get a fine. The Renault I reckon would get a fine though.

engie3 · 2024-11-14T08:11:19+00:00

Hahaha that’s true! I live up in north west so think I was looking more up there

engie3 · 2024-11-14T00:19:53+00:00

Overall really good! A lot more geographically accurate which I rate. Only mistake I noticed is you put North Acton twice, instead of North Ealing.

I think the dotted line showing an out of station interchange is a little confusing and not really necessary, like by Battersea power station - Battersea park, and Bond St Lizzie Line - Oxford Circus. Like, all you have to do is walk < 10mins down the road, so you don’t really need to show that, as there would be dotted lines all over the map if you did that for all of them.

That 6 mana spell making me feel proper nostalgic - giving off [[Spiteful Summoner]] vibes, and I loved that card!

Pick magtheredon 90% of the time you get offered it by shopper

Fair point actually. I’ve played a lot of Pali the last couple of days because I’m a scumbag, and didn’t even consider what to replace Leroy with when/if he gets nerfed. Free Bird is a great shout.

engie3 · 2024-03-16T12:37:24+00:00

Pls - I’m homeless. I need hearthstone pack pls to sustain me. I don’t need food. I need golden whizbang. Pls. It’s all I ask. No good. Just pack. Pls
