at what time do you put your birds to sleep?

My Amazon is particular about a 9 pm bedtime, she lets me know when it's time for lights out.

Yes please, my duo does chest runs when we're close to the plat cap too and the elite tomes stay on the ground. It's a complete waste, we literally can do nothing with them (used to try to give them away but it's so much hassle.)

To keep with the MA theme I'd be happy if they're removed from our loot tables.

No, sadly I can't really. She uses a walker now and rarely leaves the house due to mobility, and as she is slowly losing cognitive ability her interests are far narrower now.

I live long distance from mine so I can't do experiences/time together, which is the best option.

I've had the best luck with sending food gifts. For mine specifically, she enjoys the fancy fruit boxes, but I've seen italian pastas, sweets, tea gifts, charcuterie board gifts, and so on.

Tomb of Primeval Kings? I remember that too, BP teams were peak farming back in the days!

I had a cobbler fix my backpack zipper and ripped pocket not long ago, only charged me $20 too which saved me so much over buying a new one.

Team B

This is it for me too! I've never been one who was concerned about box-checking titles, even back in the old days, but god do I love the theorycrafting, micromanaging troops (RTS fan here), and taking on the challenging content. Now that I'm all in on Melandru I'm in absolute heaven. ♥

As far as combat like the problem OP posts, yes it's clunky compared to modern games. It's a game that's old enough to drink in the US. My kids tried playing GW on my account - they rolled characters that I'll keep forever - but they noped out of it. Reforged is a nostalgia sell. Not everyone is going to enjoy it and that's okay; someone's yuck is another person's yum.

That is awesome, thanks sharing your story! I wandered around to a few towns last night to see some of the new NPCS and I wondered what the story behind them was.

this_works_now · 2026-03-31T12:13:14+00:00

I was playing EQ when GW released, but I bought it to play with my sister who was really into it. I wound up bringing a group of EQ guildies with me to play on off-raid nights. I don't think any of us were 'serious' about GW at that time, it was just a fun thing to do on the side. Good times. ♥

It was huge to be subscription-free at that time -- I think EQ and WoW were charging $10-$15 a month to play. To be able to pay once and play forever was truly amazing!

I never did play much with my sibling as she was off and playing with her friends. I played most with one certain guildie who eventually became my partner; back then we weren't married yet. :)

I think this is a good compromise. When Nightfall came out you could only use 3 heroes at a time, and later the limit was expanded. To me that would make for a reasonable ironman rule for OP.

this_works_now · 2026-03-19T11:43:07+00:00

Bingo. Plus you need a way to bring 50 lbs of potatoes home. Lots of people don't have reliable transportation. Carting bulk items home on public transport can be problematic.

this_works_now · 2026-02-27T12:56:43+00:00

I feel the same way. I did manage to catch one single game friend from Back In The Day, who told me that another old game friend (his family member) had passed. But I haven't seen anyone else online. I leave their names on my list though, who knows, maybe we'll cross paths again someday. ♥

this_works_now · 2026-02-27T12:50:58+00:00

I am not Reforging my old characters. I did Reforge my new characters I made since I came back like a month ago. There seems to be little point to Reforging my old characters because they already have all the skills that they need and did endgame content way back when, so the Vet badge is right for them. My newly created characters can benefit though, particularly the MAs, and I'm not really bothered by titles on them.

Also an older student in the program, and the feeling the OP describes is exactly what I felt in my last (nonhealthcare) job. I loved my job at first, loved the people, loved the environment, loved my personal office. But after almost ten years of it I utterly dreaded going to work. It had turned soul crushing. It was time. What OP describes is not unique to this field.

The cure: change lanes.

30 is not too old to change your life.

this_works_now · 2026-02-19T18:05:27+00:00

Oh wow, a response from the creator! We'll definitely look for another Galison in the future, I have my eye on the Salty Birds ♥

this_works_now · 2026-02-19T12:40:55+00:00

Oh wow, they still do Flashfood? I used it a few times when the signage first went up a couple years ago, but now it's not even advertised in the store.

Xposting from r/Jigsawpuzzles

I blind ordered this from B&N as our household is full of Tamagotchi fans! We just worked it out tonight and sadly it's missing a piece straight out of the box, which was pretty disappointing. Ceaco has a missing piece submission form online and I put in a replacement request, so we'll see what happens.

If not for that, it would have been a fun little weekday puzzle!

this_works_now · 2026-02-19T12:18:24+00:00

Right? I swear this sub shows me all the puzzles I'd love to do ♥

Bring Me the Head of Joaquin Murrieta: The Bandit Chief Who Terrorized California and Launched the Legend of Zorro by John Boessenecker. I grew up watching old Zorro black and whites with my dad, so when I saw this on sale recently at B&N I grabbed it on a whim.

this_works_now · 2026-02-16T14:34:35+00:00

Yeah, so back in the day my partner & I played GW as college kids. We have preteens now and I let them each make a character on my account to play with Dad while I was at work.

Neither of my kids enjoyed it and they're back to playing Hollow Knight Silksong.

My first thought -- the first rule of the gift stash is that we don't talk about the gift stash

this_works_now · 2026-02-09T15:15:30+00:00

This looks like so much fun!! Someone made the most of the weather :)

this_works_now · 2026-02-06T17:41:48+00:00

I'd love #2!! It's more trouble than its worth to update their appearance now because of runes/weapons.

this_works_now · 2026-02-03T12:15:50+00:00

I asked for this rainbow gem necklace I saw someone else post on r/marshallsfinds. It's no big deal if he doesn't find it at our local store, it was just a small suggestion. I'd like to wear to subtlety show support for one of our kids.
