[quote]If you want something with strategy and also nice art/theme, there's Scythe. If you've never played a deckbuilder, you might try Dominion. That game has almost limitless variety if you get a couple of the different sets.[/quote] I second both of these games. Scythe is one of my favorit...

Just started playing yesterday, and while it can be a bit until you get to the guns and everything you see on the videos, I can tell I will be playing this a lot. ...

Was in Kitzbühel all last week and it was incredible. Last year was very little snow, and this year the only runs not open were those they were grooming for races, including Der Streif. Blue bird days everyday but Monday and the snow was really good except for Saturday which started to get a little...
Yes. His programs are great and have gotten me some good results. Dane was a good thrower, and he is a damn good throwing and weightlifting coach. He has some good experience coaching youth level. Haley Reichart (sp?) has been a really good weightlifter that has been at the national/internation...
Excited to hear about your experience! Just curious, how did you get your tickets? I've read all kinds of different stories about getting tickets, so I'm always interested to hear how that experience went. ...
Just attended the PR party. Walked in with a 185kg/407lb PR and now it is 200kg/440lbs! Ready to get weightlifting centric again and go for a 140kg/308lbs clean and jerk. Congrats to everyone else! ...
Follow up question so keeping the spoiler tag. Do you think they'd do GG and Hobgoblin for the next one? Kind of wasn't a fan of Harry staying alive, but that has to be why. Big three of them and Doc has to make for a heavy Pete story no matter what. Sidebar, while it was a lit...
Just plat'd it last night. What an incredible game top to bottom. Story was superb, and everything felt pretty smooth. This visuals and load times when fast travelling were killer. Can't wait for some DLC....

Big open world games to just explore all the areas and admire details. Horizon: Forbidden West would be the most recent of that sort. I agree with Stardew, and with that being said, I'm really excited for Haunted Chocolatier whenever that may be. ...
Week 2 has been a good one. Did option 3 for squats at 162kgs. I can't wait to test max, because I feel like 200kgs and more will be coming soon. ...

I went in November and tried the daily lottery for Angel's and didn't get it. Worth a shot to put in every day for it though. We did the Narrows instead, and there was no one checking for permits at the trailhead. We also didn't even see a lottery for permits either. Hopefully, that will be t...

I'm getting clapped playing solo with the hunter. Just can't keep distance with the way the maps are set. Can see how this will be fun with a other players. ...

Just got back last night from 4 days in the Cascades. Simply put, this place is amazing. Recap: - Stayed on a weed farm in Rockport that had no running water or electricity. Very peaceful, really cool layout, creek for swimming, and the cabin was awesome. Local legend known as the Peace Wizard...

Awesome review. Was trying to put this and Cascades in one trip but couldn't swing it, but this will definitely be a priority for next year. How long did it take to get to Cape Flattery from Sol Duc?...

I do it every day at lunch at work. It has helped me a lot as a prehab for olympic lifting. Only downside is way too many people at the plant think I'm just going crazy in the heat. ...
