that awkward moment when you accidentally telegraph all of your attacks, making it very simple for the hero to learn your tells and avoid them

doctor who zipped 

I spent the evening working on one of my Doctor who: zipped projects - a thing i do for fun, where I take a classic doctor who story and see how much I can edit it down to a shorter length.
Currently, I'm doing: Terror of the Autons from 1971.

Its the story which introduces both The Master and Jo Grant. One thing I love is that Jo is repeatedly told "follow orders, stay here" but then it immediately cuts to her getting involved or breaking into the Evil Factory™!

She's great!!

work (-) 

I have basically no tasks to do, I'm working from home, and all of my co-workers are on leave...

I'm losing my marbles!
What am I supposed to do???

I don't have any work to do, but I'm still supposed to work for 8 hours!

re: board game (18xx) kickstarter 

Also: look at this beautiful image the publisher commissioned for the rulebook!

(Trains rusting and becoming obsolete is a major part of the 18xx series, and it's really great to have some train art for that!)

board game (18xx) kickstarter 

Shikoku: 1889 is finally on kickstarter!

And it looks so wonderful!!!

I am very happy that the screen-printed tokens stretch goal has been met, because that means the train company logos will be printed directly onto the tokens (rather than me having to put so many stickers onto all the tokens before we can even play).

Hello everyone!

I've been away from this instance for yonks because.... I lost my password >_>

*definitely played Dragon Age voice* my favourite part of Dragon Age is when the main character says "What's with all these dragons these days? It's like we're in some kind of dragon age."

maths terminology question 

is there a special name for the 50th percentile?

(I want to annotate a spreadsheet that uses the 50th percentile, and something shorter would be nice)

re: board games 

I loved how it represented how bloodborne feels and plays without just being a boring simulation, I love that it has different stories in it and different campaigns.

I think probably my only issue with it is that there are so many aspects to the game that it was very easy to forget about a rule, and then realise we'd done it wrong a few turns later.

I played the bloodborne board game with some friends last night, it was fantastic

The people of The Tower had not known danger for generations.

Conflicts, never more than raised voices, were quickly mediated.

Wounds and illness were soothed within moments, and never life-threatening.

But the restless few sought experiences unavailable within the walls.

Most returned with a greater appreciation for safety, while others thrived in the world beyond, only visiting every so often, with exciting scars and wild stories.
