I’m three sessions into running Feng Shui. Still not sure how I feel about the system. The book is cleverly written and full of fun references and jokes. Well worth getting for that alone. 🧵

Res Arcana, every turn it feels like you are desperately trying to balance a stack of everything you want to do while wearing roller skates. A really enjoyable game.

Space Base is always a fun time. I had a good engine going, but lost in the end. I like this game a lot.

I think I’ve played Cat in the Box a couple of times, but today was the first time with the correct rules. Good fun!

Ran a session of my rpg of sky pirates and floating islands 'Corsairs' tonight. They characters managed to track the imperial spy to his fast ship and avoid the ambush that was waiting for them. Great fun. Will see how the next session goes!

Played Ecosystems with my daughter. I like this game, simple drafting and card placement, but fun to think about and plenty of choices to make.

Played our first session of Feng Shui last night. Got a few things wrong or missed, but we muddled through. Confident next session will flow much better! Was good fun!

Forest Shuffle. First game and I did OK. I really enjoyed this. A good mix of systems I'm sure I'll improve at in future plays.

I'm getting close to the point where I think I'll delete a majority of the discords I'm part of. I don't like unread notifications, and I don't read a majority of discords I get notifications for... Seems like a logical choice. Many are groups I want to engage with, just don't have the energy...

Ran Corsairs tonight, lots of intrigue and truths revealed. The characters have every right to feel the weight of empire stacked against them. What will a lone sky ship of Corsairs do with the enemies arrayed aginast them...

Ran Death In Space last night, not sure I am a fan of systems stacked against player success. I get the narrative intention, but I am not sure it's for me. Time, and further games will tell. I like the setting!

Spent the day at the Gymnastics Trials today - qualifiers for the State Championships. The squad I co-coach did an awesome job putting together skills we've been drilling for months. They did well pulling things together at the right time in the season, it was great to be there!

Am reading Rogue Protocol from the Murderbot Diaries, by @marthawells.com - loving the dry and often sardonic humor it's fantastic set against the corporate shit fuckery of the setting. Great books!

A game of Corsairs tonight... the new leaders of the brigantine, the Nacht Darchen, made after a heavy merchant vessel, and paid a dear price for the cargo. After a night of desperate repairs, both ships are being sailed by skeleton crew toward the island of Fordwath. We shall see how it turns out!
