Games like Hive and Quarto are a thousand times better when holding the pieces compared to online.

People need to remember - this isn't a binary choice of love/hate. You can tell people [this thing] isn't your favorite without saying you hate it. But that's still no reason to start a podcast.

Eh, Ivanova (Babylon 5) learned this lesson when the Drazi fought each other over which sashes they wore - which were randomly given out.

And it follows, if He-man then She-Ra.

You've destroyed your SEO while at the same time making it harder for some people to read. Scrolling around on my phone trying to read a picture instead of text is annoying.

If I go to "Star Trek: Temporal Anomaly (Fan Film)" Campaign page, there is a bunch of text on that page. If I go to your Trek Short campaign, the word "crowdfunding" does not appear on that page. A picture of the word "crowdfunding" appears. Why?

(out loud not outload)

The entire campaign is a picture, not text. I had a friend that used a screen reader to speak the text outload to him. Since it wouldn't be able to read the picture, he couldn't listen to the text being read, because there isn't any text there.

Question: Why aren't people with screen readers allowed to read the pitch?

Then it is not to soon.

That depends on what you are procrastinating about.

Just speculating, but I think it is easier for most board gamers to chuck the flavor of the game to min/max their next action and get more points. The people I enjoy playing RPGs care about the flavor and story more.

That depends, I'd play most of them if people said we need one more player.

Azul for something quick. Shogun (reimplementing Wallenstein, not the game with many names) if I want something longer.

A number of non-white off-duty cops have reported that ICE grabbed them then set them free, so more cops aren't willing to assist them in any way.

Image of six icosahedron nets with the faces numbered. Text goes into detail: "All d20 layouts that are fully balanced numerically" There are only six number layouts (and their reflections) for a d20 that are optimally fair. The most common layout (where the 20 is surrounded by 2, 14, 8) is NOT numerically balanced, apart from by opposite-face sum (Which only helps negate bias from a squashed shape). d20 dice with the above layouts should roll the expected value (10.5) on average, even if their shape is squashed (common for very old, cheap, or melted dice), their center of mass is offset (common in dice with inserts, multiple materials, air bubbles), or are not fully isohedral where faces/edges are slightly different (common for handcrafted gem/glass/metal dice, and dice not evenly tumbled). Key features: - Opposite faces always sum 21 (two faces with an average value of 10.5) - Faces around each vertex always sum 53 or 52 (five faces with average value of 10.6 or 10.4) - A face's three adjacent faces always sum 32 or 31 (three faces with average value of 10.666 or 10.333) Feel free to use any of thes layouts above for your own dice to make them fairer overall.

Realised I haven't posted this here yet:

This is every possible numerically-balanced d20 layout.
If you know a dice-maker please pass this on to them - it'll make their dice roll fairer on average.

The one time I went on a business trip to Japan, one of the guys would "read" Japanese in the subway. "Half tree, little man, house - this is our stop!" and he always got us to the right station.
