Comment on Detroit Lions-Dallas Cowboys game ends in controversy as penalty thwarts Detroit's go-ahead two-point conversion in ~sports.american_football
ED1CT LinkWe lions fans just accept it now. We lose on weird plays like the Megatron catch rule, Seattle batting out of the endzone, 10 second run off, among others. Just add it to the list.

Either way we're in the playoffs. Use it as a motivator and focus on the games ahead.

Once they have served their purpose for a day or two (or are dirty enough to merit it) I throw them in the wash, usually with my other towels. I don't wipe grease or anything with them, so they stay nice enough laundering them once a week.

Nice thing with the official is the ability to change individual mic volumes. Exact kind of comforts I'm talking about that make it hard to use the unofficial. Also as long as one player has the higher tier (I do), nobody else actually has to pay, which is nice. -

I play on the official app online when i have a chance, but many groups tend to not be as welcoming to new people joining up with them and seem to be very "cliquey" in their play. The non official app seems to have a better community, but the QoL comforts of the official app just make it hard to go back to the unofficial one.
I've played a good number of games and ran many more as a storyteller. Just looking to find a more welcoming group in need of a player or 2 to join occasionally (my wife plays as well), or if interest is warranted, maybe start one up. I'd be happy to teach anybody who is interested.
I'm on the the official and non official discord, along with the NRB one, but if there are any other good discord groups to join I'd be happy to hear of them.

Couple years ago I went and played through the entire thing and it still holds up. It's just got a great variety of weapons and lots of secrets to explore and find.

The other board is Bubble Bobble. I have enough switches and joysticks but still need to source a good screen and artwork for the eventual cabinet. -

If I get even 10% of the playtime I got out of D2 I'll be happy.
Biggest surprise to me, is the launch. I've run into very few queues and limited issues. I hate this whole always online thing in modern games, but at least it's been smooth. I was afraid for full launch, but no complaints so far.
Oh for sure. I absolutely love it and after using it regularly it's hard to go back to the free option, even as well as that works. Maybe we can get enough people playing to run it regularly. I usually do the storytelling for my group, so I'm happy to teach people to play.
