Did you have to climb a rope in Physical Education or any other educational class?

    This was my thought when I first heard of it. My school wouldn’t let us on the playground when it was wet because we might slip on the monkey bars haha

    ELEMENTARY! I feel like that is wild.

    Haha yeah it sounds like a crazy fun playground filled with danger.

  • And if you did what class grade/year would it had happened? What decade (if your comfortable sharing)? I am wondering how many people actually did this and from what locations/ages/years it would have happened. For my education (American elementary-college years 2000’s-2010’s) I never had to do that. I feel like I had to be common enough that it is referenced in movies and tv shows.

    I was scrolling and the post above this one for me was a tabletop post. So I saw that it was in tabletop and then either my eyes or my dyslexia read this title instead. And I thought “An afternoon with Bob the Drag Queen” I need to know more about this board game hahaha.

  • Favorite worldbuilding TTRPGs?
  • TheGentleMen TheGentleMen 1y ago 100%

    My group played through a mix of The Quiet Year and just home brew dnd but it was a blast. I loved building the world made me more interested as a player.

    We also did some classic Grant Howitt one shots like the Honey Heist (which was super fun and funny) and Drunken Bear Fighter.

  • Which are your favorite games to play with only two people?
  • TheGentleMen TheGentleMen 1y ago 0%

    Lots of great suggestions in this thread! I will add a few of my favorites.

    • Mansions of Madness Fun spooky co op that has a lot of stories to play through. Your typically an investing team trying to solve spooky mysteries. I saw someone suggest Arkham horror if you like that suggestion then you will also like Mansions of madness.

    • Sleeping Gods Story telling co op adventure. The game takes you though this new world and you have to figure out how to get home. Very thematic with a bunch of different crossroads. Combat is very punishing but still fun. I also believe they are coming out with a second one. I love Red Raven games so I would also suggest Above and Below as well as Near and Far but both of those are competitive.

    - Nemesis It is basically Alien the movie the board game. It is semi co op. You have a general objective to get the ship safely to earth but as aliens start popping out your goal changes to what you find most important. Every time I play this game I feel like I could have watched the movie I just played. Your goals could be aligned or they could not be. But why I like to play it with my wife is because even if our goals are not aligned we cannot fight each other you can old do some what harmful things haha.

    The Gloomhaven suggestion

    • I am sure people have put Gloomhaven. It’s top tier when we are talking co op but I would suggest jaws of the lion over Gloomhaven. Jaws is cheaper and a lot easier to set up than. This suggestion is only if your considering Gloomhaven.

    Best of luck and happy gaming.

  • Stranded on an Island, you can take two games, which ones do you choose? (you are not alone)
  • TheGentleMen TheGentleMen 1y ago 100%

    Cosmic Encounters and Nemesis. I think cosmic is my favorite for sure and I feel like it’s got a lot of replay ability. Nemesis is a great game and it has great story building I think.

    This looks great. For sure a shock when I first saw it but I think it’s just enough of a change to make it feel fresh. Then the  features seem dope. I usually don’t use the overlay but I might now.

  • What are your cycling plans for this summer?
  • TheGentleMen TheGentleMen 1y ago 100%

    I love doing local commuting. I usually do it from spring until fall but I just started new meds that effect my appetite. So I have been a little cautious because sometime I will run out of energy and not realize it. So my first goal is just getting back on my usual schedule. Something about getting to a location just through your energy is so fun! I don’t love biking to bike but I love using it as transportation.

  • please be measured in what you expect of us: a non-binding appeal from one of the people running the site
  • TheGentleMen TheGentleMen 1y ago 100%

    Absolutely we’re just happy to be here. You mentioned you have some volunteers that help out on the technical stuff. With the influx of users are you looking for more volunteers? I am sure most of us are still getting used to how everything works but I would imagine that’s not the case for everyone.
