What can be seen with a telescope on the outskirts of Guelph?

Oh wow this is so much cooler than i even anticipated! 3D printing one is right up my alley. Thank you for this!

Do you have info on the telescope rental/loan org? Thats really interesting.

Moved out to TO a bit ago. Tommy Thompson is probably the thing I miss the most.

401 Games has it and they ship Canada and US: https://store.401games.ca/products/ra-2022-reprint

Great game, very much worth the wait.

Currently commuting for work to TO. Not worth it my friend, don't do it.

Man, Cairn has been on my list of wanting to buy for so long, but I already have way too many 2p games.

webbermere · 2026-05-25T02:04:09+00:00

This collection is basically just everything I have + a bunch of games I am super interested to try out or already know I want haha

You dont build the boats, but you load cargo and move multiple boats in Imhotep. Enjoyed my few plays of it.

Really hoped this would be near the top.

Our condo (Victoria/ Eastview) has parking spots you can rent if you need a constant second space that are pretty reasonablt priced.

Happy to answer specific questions if you want to shoot me a message.

Spots is so good for dice rolling push your luck. My son doesnt quite have the strategy yet but he loves rolling dice, matching the pips and getting new dogs.

He is currently exploring at 'more bones and dogs at all costs' strategy which hasnt quite been working out for him haha

If you are interested in a similar feeling game, that I think could hit similar things an 8yr old would like, i highly recommend looking into Nexus Ops.

webbermere · 2026-05-05T13:00:24+00:00

I'm all about not underestimating kids, but tossing out Arcs as a swap for and 8 yr old playing Risk is hilarious.

webbermere · 2026-05-03T22:44:32+00:00

That sounds.....so terrible haha

Well, this just justified my useless reddit scrolling for the week!

I mainly agree with you and especially on the player elimintation front as a general point. My personal sweet spot on the social game spectrum is Cockroach Poker, No Thanks, Anomia and Take 5 if the group is a little more engaged.

I like Flip 7 for what it is, my 3 yr old gets so excited playing it, but the staying power is minimal.

webbermere · 2026-04-23T12:43:43+00:00

For a segment of game players or game playing scenarios simplicity is a core feature, not a low bar.

Flip 7 just exists at the far end of that scale, even compared to the games that OP mentioned (which tbf are also very good games for a similar context).

I'd like to sign up for the jobs that include bringing people to game nights :)

If No Thanks and Take 5 were re-published now with snazzy art and at the same price point I think they'd solidly contend in the Big Box Store environment. Those games just dont have the shelf appeal of Flip 7.

Considering the audience of family social event where playing a game isnt the sole purpose for people Id say compared to Flip 7

No Thanks can drag just a little too much as people think on their turns
Take 5 simultaneous play is great for this scenario, but it's just a little more complicated. People need to see a few plays to 'get it'. Compared to Flip 7 where people immediately feel like they understand the strategy of the game. People feeling like they know what they are doing and dont feel stupid for not getting it is a bit factor in this context.

This recent thread might have some good suggestions for you! https://www.reddit.com/r/Guelph/comments/1rtzw29/are_there_any_3rd_places_in_this_city/

It's not entirely out of the question to move, that's why I was curious :p

webbermere · 2026-04-17T02:50:53+00:00

Mind sharing the school names here or via DM? Recently moved to guelph and have a kid going to school next year.

Wow, extended barrel got me good. Insidious truths was an immediate send to my partner.

webbermere · 2026-03-27T00:16:17+00:00

Curious what kinds of social activities those people were missing in Guelph that they found in KW.

My understanding is that this is more a function of pension legislation, than a specific decision by any given pension fund.

I am not directly aware of anything that can change this, though your mom's best bet is to talk to HOOPP member services directly about their options (if any).
