Dice-play.com is a really good resource. We play a lot of farkle (older scoring not the commercial version), any Yahtzee, but lately we’ve been playing Ship, Captain, Crew, Knockout, and Centennial with the kids.

Nice! What game?
- Comment on Made my first model 1 week ago:
It occurs to me as well that the “completeness” of this amused me too.
- 1 tin
- 1 ~$5 package of dice
- 1 print
- 1 pencil from IKEA, your local golf course or wherever
- 1 pocketmod printout of games sized to fit the tin (a work in progress)
No spare parts, it’s all complete.
- Comment on Made my first model 1 week ago:
It’s not that we play a specific game that needs 10 dice, but I find that I can accommodate a whole lot of games if I have 10 dice. I originally thought of doing six because that would cover up through Farkle and then Yahtzee could come along for the ride, but then I realized that if I threw all the dice in the package in there, I could expand the optional games. Or running multiple games separately.
If I had 2 extra we could even play Bunco. So it was more that it fit and opened up a bunch of options.

So let me see if I understand; a movie about Korean and Korean-adjacent pop stars who have existed throughout the ages to fend off spiritual/mythological beings, features Korean spirituality/mythological figures and symbolism.
You don’t say…

Depends on the charity/thrift store some states they have to/choose to hold it longer before they can put it out to make sure people aren’t trying to dump goods that were illicitly attained or don’t have the staff to process.

I use kobo because I have a kobo reader and you can import any epub into their app and it will work great. Otherwise I like Yomu, it’s got a nice and clean interface.
- Comment on Hey Gen X and Elder Millennials, guess what's getting a proper retro release... 1 month ago:
That was a lot of fun, and I was absolutely terrible at it. My favorites were Advanced Dungeons & Dragons and Shark! Shark!
- Comment on Hey Gen X and Elder Millennials, guess what's getting a proper retro release... 1 month ago:
It came out in 79 and games were still being made into the late 80s.
- Comment on Hey Gen X and Elder Millennials, guess what's getting a proper retro release... 1 month ago:
It had 16 buttons (albeit the side buttons were ?almost always? Mirrored) and a multidirectional disk. And you had to keep a collection of plastic sheet inserts for each game. So bad, but I loved mine so much. I hated that the Atari only had a Joystick and 1 button at friends’ houses.

- Comment on My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined 2 months ago:
It may be something my brain ingested at some point in the past from somewhere else, but if so I don’t remember it.
- Comment on My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined 2 months ago:
I always get a lot of impressed looks when I pull out a severed hand that I use to hold the rail while I hold on to the wrist upper arm. I can tell they’re all jealous.
- Comment on My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined 2 months ago:
If you had the choice, would you rather the railing be greasy or exceptionally sticky?
- Comment on In the long ago past, people needed to do THIS 2 months ago:
Yep. Apparently I stuck those in some sort of super resilient long term storage.
- Comment on I Got This Right, Right? 2 months ago:
It’s also an easy misunderstanding to make for a journalist or online commentator because typically when somebody decries somebody “making something political” or “getting more political”, they mean in a way that they are not because to them, “their views aren’t political” even though they absolutely are.
- Comment on I Got This Right, Right? 2 months ago:
The article I saw said he was getting more “political“ recently, not more left-wing…

Aside from the feeding and mating; I always learned it was fight, flight, or freeze (fawn).
