as a way to help stop the rich from getting richer i propose the rule that the neopets bank has, where you have to show up once a day to get any interest for that day
did sunday’s unknown event at gen con (mtg games organized by the principal designer, uses silly r&d playtest cards that are exclusive to these events but not tournament legal) and had some of the most fun i’ve had playing magic despite going 0-3 :P got one of my playtest cards signed :D
tornado warning at gen con so now 3 for 3 on events i’ve gone to this year with alarms going off

This is just more proof of how user scores just are not very useful to use. If you play Splatoon Raiders, yeah it's an amazing game. But the 7th best game of all time? Come on. It's at least top 5.
VGC@videogameschronicle.com · last wk.Splatoon Raiders is currently the 7th greatest game of all time on Metacritic, according to User Score. While not necessarily a true indicator of quality, the results at least show a dedicated following. www.videogameschronicle.com/news/splatoo...
The funniest part of GDQ events is always the phenomenon of “cis male runner with commentary couch entirely occupied by trans women”. It’s GrunglerCon and, god love them, it happens twice a year
genning absolute con this weekend, if you are too come say hi :D

one of the funniest things i own is a used copy of pokemon colosseum i bought over 15 years ago. it still has the price tag on it. it was $9.99
it seems like whenever i go on bluesky all i see is a bunch of people talking to each other and posting about stuff
Designing games is easy, finishing and releasing is impossible, no one has ever done it before
learning a speedrun is awesome it makes you feel productive for playing bideo game
why did nintendo hype up mouse mode so much and then NOT PUT IT INTO THEIR SHOOTER I DONT UNDERSTAND
splatoon raiders, despite not implementing mouse controls for the one franchise they make sense to exist for, is really fucking good. and its only $50 digital... #yay
it was truly worth all of the life decisions that led me to not getting caught the first time i was on screen as this gnome
