Normally in Democracy the majority or popular vote wins, however due to the electoral college America has, it doesnt necessarily mean the majority voted for the winner. This was the case for Bush, and some other moments in the past.
I finished Nocterra book 1 in no time, so now I am off to Batman the long Halloween. On the side I am continuously reading Uncanny Xmen from Claremont and the 2022 run of Doctor Strange.
In Dutch we have DROL, Dicht recht, open links. So close right, open left as a very strict translation. But DROL is also Dutch for turd.
On our last excursion we were lucky once again, and found this sleeping beauty. Or lucky, she likes to perch at the entrance, well guarded from the sun.
Zombitse national parc, no clue on the species.
It is the Dutch railway company, so no, I wouldnt expect you to know this as a foreigner.
But I am a little sad now I am not part of the lucky ones...
Supercool, thanks! Really like your write ups
I recently started reading the whole series from the beginning, and I quite enjoy it, althoygh it is a bit slow. It is cool to see what the origins is for some of the most crucial villains in the series.
Wait this has been out for a while now, hasn't it? In the Netherlands we already could purchase it for 2 years now. Or am I missing something?
I hate it when the "and this is where we end the session for tonight" part happens 10 minutes in... once had a high level party teleport to the complete opposite side of the map 10 minutes after starting... That is when I learned what high level really meant.
I am not fully familiar with the term quarterbacking, but I assume it is where somebody effectively plays the whole game and tells everybody what to do?
I think if you are aware of it, it is easier to stop quarterbacking. When I play it I try to give advise on hotspots for problems, but I wont plan somebody elses turn. But they decide. But the game can be prone to it. You could always play with your cards closed, then people have less information, which prevents 1 person from figuring it all out, but might complicate the game some extra as well
We have had some busy weeks last weeks, so the amount of games is liwer compared to normal. This weekend we finally had some time again ^^
We played 2 games of good ol' pandemic, which we horribly lost. Mostly due to the lab expansion, which we hadnt played in a while and forgot the proper strategy for.
We also played a game of Theotihuacan, but it isnt my game. We have played it a couple of times now, but I am tense the whole way through, as there are so many actions and every single one counts so much. If anyone has some experiences with this game and can tell me your experiences I would love to hear. It is a game my fiance loves, and I would like to at least like it as well...
We got this box with an order of fries, but since then it has been his favorite spot...
Dixit is also a good fit! It is a very easily explained game, where you have to say a word or short phrase describing a mystery card. The rest then places a card they think that matches the description as well, and then a voting round starts. It is really fun, and playing it would do more justice than this explanation :p
Really interesting premise and world for Nocterra. And beautiful art, my god. The story jeeps you on your toes. Dont want to spoil too much,.
