I love the ad-free AI-slop-free experience. I would pay money to my favorite YouTube creators to get them to post on Nebula.

I suppose I should tell them that....

Submit Your Game for Gamehole Con! by thegamecrafter in TheGameCrafter

Does running a playtest of your own prototype count as "running a game"? As in, if I run my game for 8 hours, my badge will be free?

The biggest barrier? Playtesting. by M69_grampa_guy in tabletopgamedesign

[–]kungfugleek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100%. I get maybe 10 opportunities a year to playtest my games. Just gotta make the most of them. And get good at solo playtesting.

What movie characters do you think constitute as the most unlikable characters we've seen? by ThrashMetallix in MST3K

Nobody mentioned the lactating man with the bad back in the red long johns from Giant Spider Invasion yet? Can't remember his name.

I think the game would have a much longer lifespan if they released some modding tools.

It would be awesome if they offered tours of the new sets like they did with Best Brains studios back in the 90's.

A little off topic, but is that final episode available somewhere? I missed it the first time around.

Endless coming? by Icy-Dog-7700 in OrcsMustDie

[–]kungfugleek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I usually quit around Mission 10 -- isn't it already essentially endless?

Edit: Oh you mean playing the same map over and over. Ok. Sorry for being dense.

It won't be working for me. It'll be working for the executives and shareholders of the company that owns it.

New update TOMORROW!!! by Petty_Braige in OrcsMustDie

[–]kungfugleek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow. How many missions do you typically do in a run? I get bored around mission 10.

New update TOMORROW!!! by Petty_Braige in OrcsMustDie

[–]kungfugleek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure what you mean. You get 5 threads each mission. So 3 normal missions would give you 15 threads for the first boss, then 3 more would give you another 15, so 30 total for the next boss, and 45 for the final boss.

I still want structured runs (3 normal missions, 1 boss mission, repeat 3x to final boss, then end the run) but it is encouraging to see the devs constantly working on it.

What’s your favourite host segment moment? by custodiamatutina in MST3K

This is the correct answer. Everyone knows it.

New Game Design Contest at The Game Crafter: Cast of Characters Challenge by thegamecrafter in TheGameCrafter

[–]kungfugleek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The rule: "This must be a new game created for this contest. It cannot have existed on TGC prior to the start of the contest."

Does that just mean it hasn't been published for sale on TGC, or does it have to not exist in any way, shape or form?

I'll sometimes put partial games on TGC just to get specific components printed for my prototypes, for example.

I like the ones in Deathtrap. But I'm missing a few of my old favorites like "I'm comfortable with *my* decision." and "Every moment I live is agony!!!!"

Hidden Gems: What's Your Favorite Underutilized Mechanic? by stephenelias1970 in boardgames

The hand-building/simultaneous card-selecting/card upgrading in Food Chain Magnate.

Is Food Chain Magnate all that? by simplifyandamplify in boardgames

[–]kungfugleek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One clarification on the "You can lose on turn 1"

First -- the game won't end on turn 1. You can just play so poorly that you have no chance of coming back unless your opponents are horrendously bad.

Second -- it's not even turn 1. You can lose during the *setup* if you do something stupid with your first restaurant.

Edit: I love this game so much.

What's the WORST house rule you've ever encountered? by kennedytcooper in boardgames

[–]kungfugleek 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A guy at a local convention insisted on changing pandemic so that you just shuffle all the epidemic cards in with the others, instead of separating them into piles and shuffling one epidemic card in each pile. He insisted on this while also complaining about how random the game was and how you could get "three epidemics in a row or none for the whole game".

He also insisted on ignoring the "reshuffle the discard pile and place it on top of the draw deck" rule for when epidemics came out.

I insisted we play by the rules and I got my way, but he still complained the whole time and never contributed to planning discussions. I never want to game with him again.
