I grew up in a family of six, so being the person who finishes the toothpaste and gets the excitement of opening a whole new tube? That's worth points. My wife doesn't even know how far behind she is.

We are so sold on the glory of the long running, year/level spanning #ttrpg campaign that sometimes we miss the joy we had. 4 great sessions that petered out was still 10+ hours of fun human interaction. #rpg #dnd

I'm currently playing my first ever #pf2e campaign. 4 sessions in and I'm not feeling it. Am unsure if it's the system, the adventure path or the GM I'm just not vibing with.

Everybody who loves a sports team, should get to see them win whatever the big prize in that sport, is at least once. That is my wish for everyone. to have the chance to celebrate with your chosen tribe what matters to your tribe.

Surely I'm not the only one who gets excited about a post referring to #mtg, only to suffer the crushing disappointment in realising that it is about Marjorie Taylor Green and not Magic The Gathering.

You know how some #boardgames just get into your head and rattle around for a while after a session like a tabletop earworm? That's where #Arcs is for me right now.

More than a month after my @elegoo.bsky.social Mars 5 and after many hours of YouTube watching I printed my first #resin minis this weekend. Special thanks to @fauxhammer.bsky.social and @onceinasixside.bsky.social whose tutorials were very spot on

I often see reviews that are critical of a #boardgame because there's 'not much game'. I get it, us gamers like crunchy decisions and mechanics but these might be intimidating to more casual gamers. Fun needn't come from the rules or even the game but from sharing an experience with friends.

I have been impressed with how @terrypratchett.bsky.social has dealt with fallout from the recent/further Neil Gaiman allegations/revelations and the impact on various Good Omens projects.

I am not expecting Hoshoryu to be a dominating Yokozuna winning multiple Basho every year 14-1 or 15-0. I am expecting to see more of the dynamic, athletic, exciting, #sumo that we have come to expect and saw three times on day 15 of Hatsu.

This morning I cracked 100 points for the first time playing #harmonies solo mode, and I am worried 2025 has peaked too early. #boardgames

Australia has a public holiday on Monday so me and my best board game people have a big day planned. #obsession, #between2cities, #stampswap, #fit2print, #everdell, #shipwrightsotNC... And those are just the ones I could easily hashtag

If we aren't about to enter a #sumo era with three dominant Yokozuna, then I'm kinda excited to be entering an era where three Ozeki are repeatedly ruining each other's chances of promotion #YokBlock

A few years ago I decided to prioritise non-white non-male authors in my reading. It has brought me into contact with @nkjemisin.bsky.social & @rfkuang.bsky.social & @nghivo.bsky.social & @namina.bsky.social I'm kinda ashamed that but for that conscious choice I may never have found any of them.

There is a glacial inevitably to Kotozakura's #sumo. A relentless, grinding, certainty that I am here for. #hatsu

#arcs has been taking up a lot of my thinking since my first game last week. I'm struck (in a good way) between the expansive feel and theme of the game and the relative meanness of the scoring. #boardgames

After one play I'm not exactly sure where #Arcs sits in my rankings of 'Best Space Themed #boardgames' but have it somewhere in a top 5 that also includes Terraforming Mars, Outer Rim, Apiary and Galaxy Trucker.

After 30 years of various hobby endeavours I was able to mash up my #warmahordes #whfb (and other minis) with my old necromunda scenery to craft an epic end of campaign encounter for my #dnd5e table.

After years of being told that #pf2e is 'better' than #dnd5e I am playing in my first campaign. Enjoying it, but would merely suggest provides a very different type of player experience (and more importantly caters to a different type of GM) than 5e #ttrpg.

I'm re-reading @terrypratchett.bsky.social 'Night Watch' at the same time as introducing my wife to @dimension20.bsky.social 'Unsleeping City'. A character who is so 'of the city' that they 'are the city?' OMG Sam Vimes = Kingston Brown. And it is meant as a compliment to both. #booksky #ttrpg

This very British type of complacency is infuriating and reminiscent of the useless Remain campaign in 2016, which failed to learn that the lying, manipulative hard Right doesn’t play by the same ethical rules as nice folk, has no sense of honourable conduct and sees fair play as weakness.
