    Hasbro CEO Cocks and Execs Sued for Alleged Securities Violations

    Its wildly wildly different from housing. Magic IS accessible. You used to be able to buy a standard deck for $40 bucks. Or premade commander decks, whatever. At the end of the day, they are already tanking the secondary market, its not improving anything by doing so.

    D&D General So how do Half-Elfs feel different to Elfs?

    First, one has to embrace the various species as foils to Humanity, archetypes. If you.dont do that, the whole exercise is a waste of time.

    1. They have that dark and edgy angle. 2. They have some neat history. 3. An element of history/background/hook, from birth. 4. Pre 4e, some flexibility in terms of appearance.

    Shadowdark Shadowdark General Thread [+]

    I'd agree. The fact its so clean, allows for ease of expansion, while its very clear core of SS/Dungeons, has an appeal, its so flexible that its just a great, fun base, without Wizards/5e baggage.

    Shadowdark Shadowdark General Thread [+]

    Regarding Aetherdark, the SD Spelljammer, I dont really think its got that Shadowdark vibe, I will have to read it but its going elsewhere in the pulp genre. I think we agree really, but I think SD is just kind of the Sword and Sorcery/Fantasy ideal of a basic D&D adventure RPG, but is also...

    Shadowdark Shadowdark General Thread [+]

    Is 'shadowdarky' just more dungeon crawl to you? Would you classify Cursed Scroll 4 as Shadowdarky? Its got some weird, some grim, some dark, but also is just a cool jungle adventure. I too think its at least partially about a 'simple 5e' among other motivations, but I dont think the game is...

    Hasbro CEO Cocks and Execs Sued for Alleged Securities Violations

    This ignores the entire history of the very much working ecosystem of Magic, like 'this worked for decades' kind of thing with year after year of success. Reprinting cards until they are worth essentially the cost of the paper, is a great way to kill the game, or everyone just goes digital, and...

    I don't think they have made a choice not driven by greed in a decade, maybe longer. The worst part, is Maro knows better, lost his soul.

    Good workout today. I think I'm going to drop the Bench down a bit. I'm kind of stuck. Dips, 110, fine. Pull down, improved, felt solid at 180 x 8. Cable Row - 220, this was too much. 210 was fine, so kinda in limbo. Pec Deck - I did drop this down to 220, with a wider/fuller range of motion...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    -- So, as far as existential crisis goes, since use of ChatGPT is now both mandatory and is being tracked to ensure compliance? I'm having it confirm code for me, write up test samples, and it's alarmingly competent at this point. Too verbose by far, but I bet I can remove that. Scary times...

    So, the secondary market clearly matters, Wizards clearly tracked it, and when it was being managed responsibly Wizards would sprinkle reprints into Standard to manage both card prices, and packs and boxes being sold to chase those value reprints. This system was sustainable, drove people to...

    That's actually the goal at this point! There are different algorithms for DEXA scans, mine was done under NHANES. https://myvitalmetrics.com/calculators-nhanes/ Long story short, this over estimates, and adds 4-5% to the Fat percentage. Based on eye test, and watching videos, I thought I...

    Lots of driving to get this... What do you all guess was the fat (yellow/orange) % I got? The red is muscle/organs.
