A Day of Impressions and Busted Barriers
by Naithin | May 9, 2020 | Other Games | 2
I tried three different games today. Three that were new to me, and each utterly different from the others. Two of them I can’t even talk about terribly much yet, though I will tell you what each of the three were. In the early wee hours of...

Here we go! Back around to me, and the world has seen some exciting changes since I was last in the saddle. You can find a list of everyone’s turn stories here if you want to get caught up but the one most important fact: At the beginning of...
Read MoreBlapril 2020 in the Rear View
Alright, not quite in the rear view. We still have until Saturday, and I’ll certainly be aiming to keep up the cadence of daily posts until then. Within the timeframe of Blapril (March 29th through to May 9th) this will be my 39th post. If I...

Maybe not strictly true within the context of the game. After all, while In our Civilisation VI Blogger Succession Game we do in fact have an exploring ship — we haven’t yet settled anywhere off the mainland. But it may be true in a...
Read MoreFixing The Comments by Removing ‘Luv
A bit of a short one today. Recently Quietschisto brought to my attention a problem that I am now certain has existed a long time. Probably since very shortly after setting up last year in fact. It was pretty well invisible to me as from my side...

Alright, so I’m a little late on this one. The new choices came out a couple of days ago now but dangit I really wanted to get the top five most/least viewed posts out and out together. In that time, Magi put his thoughts up over on The...
Read MoreTop Five Least Viewed Posts
Every coin has its flip side, and so too does this. If we covered the top five most viewed posts yesterday, then it must be time to look now at the least viewed. Certainly that’s what the originator of this now blogger meme — SDWeasel...

If you watch closely, I’m going to perform a magic trick for you.
I’m going to turn a top five list into a commentary on motivation, and how to keep it.

While not something I’m going to dwell on — I think I will at least acknowledge that the COVID-19 lockdown is finally getting to me. Not in any serious, major ways. Rather just I note that my motivation levels are down, with each day...
Read MoreThe Value in Bla(pril/ugust)
Last night, Bhagpuss posted on the subject of the recent wave of expressions of exhaustion. I read it while I was out of the house so couldn’t respond in much detail at the time. Now, much of what Bhagpuss wrote — I agree with…
Read MoreRNG vs. Player Agency
by Naithin | Apr 29, 2020 | Gaming, Other Games | 13
Luck. Probability. Random Number Generation (RNG). Love it or despise it, it’s been a part of gaming for decades. At its simplest and most extreme form the outcome is decided in entirety by the roll of the (sometimes literal) dice. It would...

by Naithin | Apr 28, 2020 | Civilisation | 9
The Civilisation VI blogger succession game is here! And we have a whopping 8 players at this stage. For the sake of those reading along, I’m going to (more or less) jump right into the action. But if you’re a player, I have a section...
Read MoreBattle for Azeroth Pathfinder Isn’t so Bad After All
Which is not something I thought I’d say. More; I’d say it, I think, even without the benefit of the influence buff currently running in WoW (through to May 18th). You see, I had it quite firmly in my head that the reputation ask for...
Read MoreCivilisation Blogger Succession Game — Setting the Rules
by Naithin | Apr 26, 2020 | Civilisation | 12
Right! The game is afoot! Well; almost. Time to set the rules a little more firmly than we did following yesterday’s post. We had a few areas where people had a preference of a sorts, but not everywhere. So I figure the most interesting way...
