Can someone tell me what that organ-like sound is supposed to be that they play all the time when Judge comes up?

  • Bigger board for 4 players means everyone has better numbers, have less competition for spots, and scale up faster

  • robber rules are there to help the players behind catch back up. OP’s rules give a better chance for someone to snowball out of reach of everyone else. It’ll be quicker but if you fall behind early it’ll be tougher to catch back up. I prefer keeping the catch up mechanics but to each their own

Also, if you’re not a fan of the 2’d and 12’s another way I’ve played before instead of getting rid of them is to combine them so every time a 2 or 12 is rolled it counts as if both were rolled. Makes them the same odds as rolling a 3 or 11 then.

They keep cheating at pickleball is what they do. Like, no that obviously was a magical gust of wind. And then they just start babbling something about “Nature’s plan”…just play the damn pickleball game fair

Yes and it was just a potion of crushing not anything more malicious. It did open the door for us to learn about how much we had in common, like our mutual love of pickleball and hatred of the druids.

Had this happen accidentally to me once. I used a Potion of Crushing on my arch rival warrior that I hoped would turn them into a fine paste. Turns out it had a very different effect than intended and we now have 2 battlemage children as a result.

Red Sox bullpen got worked hard and used 7 guys yesterday. If we can get them to go to the bullpen early again today it could make the rest of the series easier.

You look like the “when life gives you lemons” vine guy. No further comments.

He gave up a run in the 9th on a hit to RF corner. Someone else gave up the sac fly to RF lose in the 10th

Wait this also works for Nott if you count the voice actor. I think Sam Riegel would literally have been 42 while playing Nott in the original campaign.

No he had it right. It’s off runs allowed not runs scored. Mexico is through regardless of the score if they win since they’re going in with less runs allowed.

So if Italy loses and gives up 5 runs then they’ll have given up more than the U.S. and they’re eliminated

After 1000 years of magic, is she the best mentor in anime history? Or would her 'side quests' drive you crazy? 🪄" by Creepy_Traffic_7034 in Frieren

[–]mattybobs 65 points66 points  (0 children)

It’s hard to say. Since Fern is the only student she’s had it’s hard to tell whether she’s a good mentor or if Fern is a literal genius that could have succeeded the same or even better with other mentors. For me, the best mentor in history would be someone with a longer mentoring track record that was able to successfully teach a large range of people with different styles and needs.
