I don't even know what i'm talking about! -
So... Brian knows who wins... so he knows what shirts not to wear. That is how it works. Pretty incuous use of future knowledge.
-
How long has it been Gaurenteed Rate field? For some reason i thought that was recent. I think that picture must be the future. Bark, you been holding out on us? Already know how the season ends?
-
De nada.
-
Would it be going out on a limb to forecast a K for Buxton? Or would that seem like too transparent an antijynx?
-
Mr. Riverbrian. If it is cold out, do you ever layer 2 shirts? Or if you dribble chilli from a chilli dog, do you change? What happens then?
-
So... We aren't losers just because we um, lost? Good game, TD.
-
Given a choice, as with all things, i'll dither eternally before settling on... peanutbutter.

We aim to please. And someday we may learn to hit too.

Cap'n Crunch is quite the thing to eat. But no. I myself won't dowse it with anything i have to show my id for.
-
Me. Never have i ever poured a hard drink on breakfast cereal, then consumed it. But i here tell 151eos is a bad idea. It has been likened to napalm, and it wasn't because it smelled like victory.
-
"Detroit: It’s even worse than Robocop predicted" You mean that wasn't a documentary?
-
So... The difference between a home game and a road game is the road game has 3 outs in the bottom of the 9th. I can live with that. Sorry i was otherwise occupied for the bulk of the game. I was at a concert, and leaving early would have been disconcerting.
-
No. What is too cheezy? Not a concept i am familiar with. Then Mr. Lama handed the pizza guy a $100 bill. He stood waiting for a while, then finally asked for change. To which said pizza guy responded "change comes from within."
-
So we shan't see the likes of Spinowner around for some time? Strangely sad, even if some time is roughly 24 hours. By that time, there may be a little game thread making its way on the net, hungering after new likes...
-
Well thought-out? Rational? These are words i am not used to hearing... Golly gee whiz! I'd like to blame -er, thank Shakespeare, Riverbrian, and of course Meatloaf.
-
Wow. More than 700 posts. Glad to see such a vibrant game thread. And i see the score was... something like 7-1? Princess Bride defeats Raiders of the Lost Ark Not a bad opening day.
-
It just occurred to me... Is Leia now a Disney Princess? What about Ms. Piggy? Ah, complexities of franchise acquisition...
-
Concur. I am not fan of death myself, nor of things what lead to it.
-
Thanks! That is useful to know as well. Not currently on that map, so presently i am out of luck. I bet i could figure out a solution in this modern age if i weren't so lazy. But i will content myself with after the fact details. I thought it funny that i clicked on the bigger map link expecting to get a map covering a larger area. But no. It was a bigger image of the same map.
-
And it starts out with a baseball game... of sorts.
-
My car has a radio. And i will spend a bit of time in it while the game is going on. But alas, i think i am a wee bit outside 96.3's broadcast range. How come i got things to do on Mondays? I gotta get my posting in early.

Article: Game Thread: Off-Season

Ticket to ride is a recent favorite of my sister, with the tablet version managing the details and tallying scores and what not. I played cribbage with Grandpa, amd traditionally offer to teach it whenever i am in an AMC hut with friends who don't know it. Euchre club had a motorhead short design, and i ended up fielding more music compliments and conversations for which i was ill-prepared. I like the stories of my father and uncle playing as partners in duplicate bridge tournaments. As i understood it, there was no middle ground, either they made all the brilliamt plays no one else did and ran away with it, or they missed all the easy plays everyone got and came in last. But that probably came through the filter of what makes a good story... Oh yeah, merry christmas and all that jazz! -

Much appreciated. I was old enough to know better at that point, so probably the damage was already done. -

Epiphany... As the old adage goes. nature abhores a vacuum. Without an actual baseball game driving the thread, what other games do people enjoy? My gramma taught me Russian Bank long ago, and occasionally i go in search of others who know the game. My parents also had a board game called Wheel 'n' Deal, (unique from others of the same name as it has a Squirrelville Detour) And last but not least, somewhere out there is a game my sister found at a store going out of business whose name i don't recall. But it was a 2 player game in which each player had 10 dice, and the only element of chance decided who went first. It was essentially a chess game where the dice were pieces that moved the number of hexagons showing, and the players sum remained the same, so if a piece was taken, other dice were incremented. Most intriguing, i found it, but never played it extensively...
