Beyond All Reason

Watched the replay. some thoughts: I didn't get the factory, but the other team was literally gging after that raid. And Yanko our highest ranked player was involved as much as me with an Arma vehicle rush. https://i.imgur.com/aYZIa1j.png Biggest thing I noticed is the other team spread out way fast...

Had deleted a post about ballistic missiles being fired because I wasn't sure about the source.

Apparently have kicked off a bit of a war a few hours ago. First wave of suicide drones to Israel - ~6 hours until they could land. Cruise missiles following ~2 hours to land in Israel, no word yet on ballistic missiles - 12m to Israel.

got offed by a nuke early on and rage drew all over our screen until the game ended. What a shitbird. I hope if there's a way to report/ban someone you guys did with him. I wish I could have a personal watch list in game, but will mentally note it and certainly never play in a lobby with him again....

We got a few games in. We puzzled through the party system for a while and then played an 8v8 multi game. We lost but I don't think it was really our fault. Our frontline held for a while - with Cake and I in the center. As frontlines that's all you're really supposed to do, fight and hold. I even b...

About the same. I travel for a living, live in the East Bay, and have never once used the Oakland airport, if that tells you anything about how convenient it is.

California - Because it needs its own thread

Oakland is the worst city in the Bay Area. By a huge margin. Constant crime, a completely neutered police force by design, even the nice houses up in the hills get burglarized all the time. Not just property crime, which is widespread across the bay. But the BAD stuff, killings, robberies at gun poi...

When you spearfish, do you catch and release or do you keep 'em? I think you're joking, but just in case. No, taking fish involves putting a large hole in it. If it doesn't kill the fish immediately it is imperative you do so before the blood and movement attracts something higher in the foot chain...

Noita

This game rules, I have an absurd amount of hours playing it. Second only to Rust in Steam.

They just pushed out a new updated that puts out more spells, enemies, fixes, and content, and it's on sale for like 8 dollars. I think I have 600+ hours in it.

Wait a minute. . . 'we'? Who's this mystery 'partner' you're buying a house with!? Her name is Jessica, and she's a pretty, left handed, outdoorsy, woman in tech. Who I've convinced to both play Dungeons and Dragons and go Spearfishing with me. (It would appear I have a type). Been dating since ear...
