First ! What’s this , XLBS at 10 pm my time on Saturday night ? After just finished watching today’s Weekender an hour ago ( Family stuff interferes with hobby ) , I get to spend the rest of my evening with the BOW crew . That’s the stuff dreams ( and nightmares ) are made of
Happy Sunday!!
Happy Sunday!!
Will the Project notifications say “Hi SomeoneElse…” (SomeoneElse being the commenter) like ordinary update notifications? ;-P
Fantastic XLBS – thanks guys 🙂 @dignity Yes please, Justin! Doing a Who Goes There let’s play on live stream, would be absolutely awesome. We would all sit at home chatting about who we think ‘are It’, coming up with very inappropriate comments to who’s sleeping together (if I know the regular stream crowd :p ), and just enjoy watching the mechanics of the game. I do really believe this game is well suited for live streaming. Also…very sad I missed the kickstarter on this one. I love the idea about a rpg living campaign thingy. Will definitely join in… Read more »
@dracs: I think the term you were grasping for is ‘homaged’, and Doctor Who probably did it more than three times; didn’t Troughton do at least one entire season of the ‘base under siege’ plot? ? I think I speak for everyone when I say Warren and Justin sleeping together is a double entendres we could’ve all done without. ? If McReady has lots of booze, shouldn’t that kill him off quicker out in the cold? ? The late replies are very hurtful Sam, it make us all feel like you don’t care about us, *sniff, sniff* ? ? So… Read more »
I am certainly the Wheaton of card games. Holding up the bottom of the table.
Maybe you need to negotiate with his agent to get him to do a let’s play with you in some game to see who can out Wheaton the other. ?
I would say happy Sunday but I am having streaming issues, that means I am going to have to get up before I am watch the XLBS on another device…grrrr bloody internet
Me too I still have last half hour of show as It streams ok for 10 mins and then whole screen freezes and get circle of death, so I’ve been getting the show in 10 min instalments twice a day.
Happy weekend one n all 🙂
HAPPY SUNDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@warzan i am glad I made one of your game moments. In my defence I was not wearing my great coat, I only brought that to the Team Yankee bootcamp..lol
I will have to buy Alessio a beer as an apology in September ???
And then tell him why you like Chain of Command more……
What I actually said to Alessio was have you ever played Chain of Command it’s a better rules system, I didn’t know at the time he wrote Bolt Action…I never actually said BA was shit…I am older and a bit more knowledgeable about things now ?
So this RPG campaign thingie sounds like a sort of paper and pen version of an MMO computer game, except, of course, using a computer system to aggregate the results.
That post credit scene had me laughing so hard…
The look of pain on Justin’s face, Dude I feel your pain.
I’m amazed @dignity was able to take part in XLBS after that…..
Happy Sunday folks
I’m with Warren. Nothing focuses the creative juices like thrash metal.
@warzan. You have to write that Egypt storyline down for us! Awesome!
Great show guys!
Lol Justin the Office welcome wagon ?
That surprise Mindmelter / Game Design Challenge was hilarious. But it might actually work as a game. Games that ancient haven’t been done much outside of the strictly historical.
You might offend a few groups though, depending on how you handle this.
lol Offending folk has become an unintended speciality of mine over the years 😉
@warzan it seems I also have a talent for that too ???
The who goes their game sound’s good.
Well if all the Egyptian technology is real then Imotepe could have armies off zombies @warzan
I’m liking the new post-credits segment. Do the main show, give all features their due, then throw in some extra BS on the end that eventually kinda links into something hobby related. I like it!
What a great show today. It’s even better that you all did that show just for me today as it’s my birthday today!
Happy Sunday… though it’s 1am Monday here ?
I would be keen as to join in a campaign like the RPG style idea suggested. This last year has been one of my better gaming years, in part because of DnD and the regular group of friends that meet up.
I like the discussion @warzan had about horror gaming. It could work well for an RPG, where the players start in a relatively normal scenario and slowly the GM dials up the tension…
Cats ARE great, aren’t they! ?
Has BoW ever considered moving down to Holywood. It might be a more apt location for your historical musings
Don’t be silly…BoW aren’t anywhere near historically accurate enough for Hollywood.
?
Luckily they are paid to hear Warren’s mind-melter. I would quit after 5min. Come to the point 😉
Happy Sunday! Really enjoyed this one, thanks guys!
The Egyptian segment at the end was hilarious, @warzan needs to make some spoof history documentary videos, lol…his take on history…
