Honored to have *another* three time world fireknife champion try out my #SivaAfi card game.

In #Numenera, @MonteCookGames makes a case for not having 20 steps of task difficulty. Why, though, do this factor-of-three conversion between difficulty and target number? Why not use a d6? Is it just the TTRPG cachet of the d20?

Me: I think I'll try some Terry Pratchett, perhaps as an audiobook. The hive mind says to start with "Guards! Guards!"

@audible_com: Yes, we have those.

Me: Take my money.

Audible: Not available in your region.

$1400? Back in 1995 Presidents would offer millions of peaches; peaches for free.

Don't forget to set your clock on fire this Sunday. Time isn't real!

Intriguingly, the only "Portland" entries on @BoardGameGeek are Monopoly clones and one about the WWII ship (which was named after Portland, ME).

This got me thinking...

If you were commissioned to design a CITY NAME board game, what would it be? If you choose one that's already a game, what makes yours different? https://twitter.com/thettexpress/status/1370030824075182080

What does it mean when someone leaves nunchucks on your pillow? 🤔

In the past 24 hours, I've become aware of two TTRPG campaigns where the bard plays a kazoo.

A margarine container fell on my toe a week ago and it still hurts. I can't believe it's not better.

Did I mention that my new #SivaAfi card game is bilingual, with all card text in both #Samoan and English?
