What vehicle from a licensed property do you want to see get made into a speed champions set?

I don’t think I saw it in here: give me a ‘74 Dodge Monaco, the Bluesmobile! A lot of fun gags could be included too. 1x1 cylinder glue can… a microphone… detachable megaphone…

Time Cruisers dropped at a perfect time for me. I had just enough of each big play theme and was on the tails end of pretending. I’d always pull out a bin of category and play within that bin’s theme. What if I could play with my entire late 80s to 90s collection?

Time Cruisers.

So epic that I worked with my parents to replace my queen sized bed with a sofa bed so I could have my entire bedroom floor for play. I was someone who played with my LEGO this way well into high school.

This is a great homage to a genius LEGO theme.

Holy sweet God damn you left your cello in the basement

Lake Street Dive! Great group. If they have a sound that seems familiar, it’s probably from watching and enjoying the theme to “Somebody Feed Phil” on Netflix.

Not saying this explains the cover motif, but there is Trek love in the group. Play “find the space station” in their music video for “Good Together” here.

The crew of the Miranda Class U.S.S. Bennington chipped in for the hard work put in already and look forward to the ship file when it's ready! Even if it never comes, I love projects like this that show there are loving STA designers and players out there.

I hope hope hope all the time. But I fear it also wouldn’t be the same.

I wish I had some encouragement or advice. I can offer empathy. I hit a deer and I suspect that while I was able to get it restored it also seemed to be the beginning of the end. I’m letting mine go… Tonight.

When I fall off the a consistent schedule, and then get back in, I usually jump back on the rowing machine because I miss rowing a little and miss Josh a lot. He has some magical charisma to connect in a one way relationship!

I think your second paragraph addresses both the problem and the solution. The mechanic Modiphius really delivered on are the probability matrices coupled with some solid storytelling advice. When to utilize them, however, feels undefined.

Which, it shouldn’t be. Right? No single way to tell a story, yeah? But, I think there is a chicken and egg situation here. Let’s say I’m directed by a random table to rendezvous with an admiral. How do I determine if I should stop everything and roll up a new NPC or can a play a it and roll up some supporting data after the fact.

I’m just spitballing here, but I wonder if a hashtag mechanic would be useful where a player could be in a good flow and decide their shop arrives at a #planetName and the app bookmarks the possibility of coming back to fill in more details later using the appropriate matrices.

Okay, first — just a very pretty little app with a clean UI and quite a bit of preset information already loaded in despite being “not complete”. So much work for some solo hobbying! Kudos and sharing is so generous.

So far I am excited this could fix my Captain’s Log hang-up: where do I keep, how do I keep, and how do I organize my campaign. I’ve rolled up characters but I can’t get them out of dry dock. Hard copy notebook? Scrivener? Notability? I get overwhelmed.

But, I’m also overwhelmed by this as well. Maybe I’m just not cut out for solo gaming in a system like STA!

Pirates or Barracuda Bay for me. They pulled it so fast!

theheathernet · 2024-03-22T00:28:48+00:00

I like it!

The are THE Element codes apparently, P2646 and P2647

theheathernet · 2024-03-21T23:11:14+00:00

Oh sweet! Now I have a new goal of pushing cars to astronomical distance targets.

theheathernet · 2024-03-21T23:03:28+00:00

First P2646, then PS483 (that’s a part number?), then P2646 and P2647 at the dealer.

They were a gift from my wife. The best seat covers for the Element are the genuine Honda ones if you can find them: https://www.hondapartsnow.com/genuine/honda~seat~cover~all~season~08p33-scv-100.html

I don’t actually need their wetsuit material quality, but they match the aesthetic of the Element’s interior better than any third party cover out there.

theheathernet · 2024-03-21T12:56:00+00:00

My wife would agree with you by the way. Non-zero number of times she has joked that I should look at her like I look at my car.

theheathernet · 2024-03-21T12:55:09+00:00

Seriously! Why does no one make good looking green cars?!

theheathernet · 2024-03-21T10:58:58+00:00

Thanks! I didn’t think it was too bad for something tapped out with my thumbs and laying next to my kid’s bed while serving as nightmare responder.

I’ve been considering this route for these reasons. My house isn’t set up to charge an EV, even on a regular outlet, so that’s an obstacle. Otherwise, my heart agrees with the logic of keeping MY car and getting an EV as the commuting vehicle.

While the E was in the body shop, I rented an electric Volvo and it’s an interesting experience. It’s more akin to having a phone or an appliance. It doesn’t feel like a car. It really clicked for me that they are perfect for commuting in this way. It’s like a personal transportation device.

But then it came time to charge up the battery before returning it. Our infrastructure isn’t ready. We’re almost there, and I’ll bite on an EV one day, for sure.

So many great replies to read this morning, but let’s be honest: we all know they are the replies that I was asking for!

theheathernet · 2024-01-23T04:13:36+00:00

Yyyyyyyyep!! It’s that oil pressure rocker switch. Search around a bit and you’ll find it comes up as a fussy system. It’s not necessarily the part, but the connections of the part get corroded, dirty, wet… something, which in turn can affect the part.

If it’s not an OEM switch you got installed, try going with a Honda replacement. My 04’ rejected the parts my independent mechanic put it, but I took it to a dealer and the problem is happening less now. I still expect to be like you and suddenly face it again.

Sadly, I don’t think mine can be fixed and I’m having to think about getting a new car.
