Is that so it can’t bother your other games in your collection and make lots of little games you have to shelve?
I know, right!?!
Ben Gerber Uh…?
I recognize all the words. It appears to be English.
For instance, my cats have been cut. Now they can’t make tons of little cats.
UROLOGY HUMOR!
Ah.
😐
Come on, Paul Beakley! That deserves no less than a pity laugh, and probably something more akin to the nervous, tittering laugh one releases when one is both confused and revolted.
Urology is no laughing matter.
No.
What’s the difference between a urologist and a hematologist?
A hematologist pricks your finger.
Oh that’s pretty good.
What does “made the cut” even mean in this context? Is there some kind of… runoff election for who gets their games shipped?

Adam D you sweet, sweet naive man.
A Distant Plain is a GMT game. They run this thing called P500. It’s like…an ur-Kickstarter. They’ve been doing it since forever. The ’90s maybe? Basically you tell ’em “shut up and take my money!” and when they get 500 people to commit to preordering — and it might take years! — then the game “made the cut” and will be produced.
ADP is a reprint and they’ve been slooooooowly getting preorders. I don’t think it actually broke 500 but either they’re gonna let it run forfuckingever or they’re just gonna suck it up and get it back into print.
Sweet.
I wonder if that credit card is still even active.
Paul Beakley ahh. Like Ransom Model, more or less.
I don’t really play board games, particularly not war games.
I get not playing war games but no board games?

I play some board games. But… like, not really. The short ones don’t entertain me much, and if I have the time to play the long ones, I’d rather play an RPG.
smh
