I live near Epic Loot Games in Centerville, Ohio. They’re celebrating their 15th year serving the Dayton area very well. Outstanding service, selection, and support for the hobby. They host events for designers every other Sunday afternoon. They also host launch parties for games by local designers
Sen-Foong Lim@senfoonglim.bsky.social · 6d ago✂️🎲 Designers! Please share your area’s #FLGS - let me know where the storefront is located and tag ‘em / drop their website. Tell me why I should go visit them if I’m in the area. Bonus points if they support local design efforts with a prototype night or featured shelf, etc.

US states differ wildly when building roads in mountainous areas Arizona: Hmm. Let’s pave over these serpentine historical trails used only by coyotes and rattlesnakes Pennsylvania: 🤬 it! Let’s punch a hole through that mountain!
As an attention-shy human, I have complicated feelings about my name on game boxes. That said, in this era of AI trash, if I do not see a human artist name on a game box, I will hesitate to buy it.
Cross the US Heartland Road Trip - Day 1 🛬 Flew from Cincinnati OH to Phoenix AZ 🚙 Met our daughter at her workplace where she’s winding up a 10wk PT clinical 🍳 Had brunch at “Snooze” EXCELLENT food and service - Imagine the cool sorority cousin of a First Watch
This week my wife and I are flying out to Phoenix AZ where we’ll start a 5-day road trip across the center of the US. Each day we’ll drive 5-8 hours, with casual stops scheduled along the way. Any FLGS recommendations for Phoenix?

Noticed the odometer on our “beater” car, a 2003 Honda CRV, was at 179917 Was going to snap a pic for @dnlnwmn.bsky.social, but realized it wasn’t quite right. I’m coining the word “palindroem” for such near misses

Working on another card game. It relies heavily on collaboration with a partner. Teams must try to earn points, but earning too many will result in zero points for the round. Not a joke, the working title is “Whoa There Partner!”
Just pre-ordered Dino Racers by @marcelineleiman.bsky.social Always looking for this kind of light fun to play with my niblings
Yawn Another debate about what is or isn’t a game. Or whether something is board game or not. I just want to yell, “34! 34 angels can dance on the head of a pin! That’s the answer! NEXT!!!”
@restorationgames.bsky.social Any idea when the Thunder Road Ignition pre-orders will ship?

I’m 61 years old In my day job, I’m often brought in as “the adult in the room”; meaning someone who will stop idiotic plans before they start. Regarding US politics, I feel strongly that ALL the adults in the room are younger than I.

#STSNW Episode 2 was as vapid as it was gratuitous. Fine. You can do horror. But this wasn’t GOOD horror. It was just jump scares and mutilation p**n. Episode 1 was much better. Still my favorite Trek series of the 2000s.
I’m going to make an Artificer named Dewalt. All his armor and devices will be black with yellow accents.
My son and I made a snap decision to forgo Saturday at Gen Con and just lounge at our hotel about 20 minutes away. Sooo… d’we miss anything? 😬
Game design thought 🎲✂️ I just listened to a @99pi.org podcast about the Finnish baby box; a free box of baby stuff they give to every new baby. Diapers and such. Question: What would you put in such a box for every new game designer?
I just remembered this toy I had as kid - a Whizzer! Yeah, it's a top. But kind of a gyroscope. Better than a Beyblade because it didn't need a ripcord. www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CzP...

Heyo! I'll be at Gen Con Thursday through Saturday. If you'd like to meet up, reach out! I'll be at Allplay's ticked event Thursday night. Other than that, I'm pretty freefall. I do hope to get a big honkin' session of Thunder Road going sometime in the open play area. Hoping to recreate this.
