A pile of single use cups etc, and a napkin with the words: There is no Planet B.

Mixed messages… (and even at Arlanda Airport)

Today we gave away ~$10K to the customers of our customer (or more precisely, we found out that during the past weeks, we have done so). Somehow it feels much worse than more expensive mistakes because there is a number attached.
Don’t put a number on it.

Hvis reviewer 1,3-n ikke har kommenteret på det, er det vel mere flovt for dem end dig? (Med mindre du var reviewer).

I have always delegated that part to a player.

Somehow felt like a game from 10-15 years ago. When it was allowed to make fun and not too deep games as long as the experience was good. Very much like a Race for the Galaxy without expansions, but more play to see what happens.

Played Moon Colony: Bloodbath today. Very pleasant experience with low chance of slowly revealed depth. It’s light and fun, and most of all reminds me of bingo (but with the added joy of killer robots).
Right now I adore it, but I’m not sure it can handle repeated play or too high player count.

Jeg er ret sikker på det er ham der snakker lidt mindre.

And if you want to, you can follow my favorite weird coffee person over at @jameshoffmann.bsky.social

Now THIS is good data visualization!

Det er ikke bare dig, det lugter af stressreaktion, og dem er der alt for mange der skal slås med.
Men det er dig. Pas på dig selv og vær ligeglad med job og dumme kolleger hvis du kan (og hvis en tur til Nyborg kan hjælpe med at massere maveknuder væk er du velkommen).

Hvor mange “brodne kar” skal der mon til at “not all” stopper?

Played Signal by Jasper Beatrix at work today. Was fun to see a bunch of developers debug their way through the game.
Aliens and legacy systems are more or less the same.

Played Revive today after a long break, and I am left with one large question: Why don’t we play this every week?

Also: Concrete human-hives are just as “natural” as plants everywhere! Formica IS the people!

Also, 25 hours in June is pretty decent ;)

Thanks for the thought, but online gaming just doesn’t do it for me. :)

I suspect the reality is more: There’s dudes out there idealizing rawdogging mechanisms, but refusing to play games with ponies.

We are gonna have charts for AI slop exposure by generation like we do lead

In this household, the German wife is in control of the sausage (and beer).

Jeg arbejder, så kan være hjemme sådan 15-16 stykker.

Nyborg! Men det giver måske bedst mening noget senere på dagen end du havde forestillet dig :)
I hvert fald hvis du skal på kaffe-visit.

Played Anno 1800 (the board game) again yesterday.
It is still not great, but I really want it to be.
There is something very satisfying about the checking off the needs of one person after another until your hand is empty.
Any game out there that does this better? Or maybe someone could make it?

Context: Denmark. She is EU citizen.
Compared to so many other people we have it easy. But the stupidity hurts.

Bureaucracy: We have a paid cleaner to clean the house. My wife will now go clean elsewhere to satisfy employment-requirements for applying for citizenship. Requirements she has fulfilled a while ago, but no matter, only employment immediately before evaluation matters.

This maybe also explains why so little have changed in the game through so many versions.

Last Saturday and this, we played Kanban again. Like most Lacerdas, I keep thinking: “is this actually a bit clunky?” But when digging deeper I realize Kanban is great exactly because of how hard it is to navigate optimally.
It would be less good if polished too much.

Rimelig vild tur alligevel!

Hvis du har muligheden, så læg vejen forbi The Lucky Liquor Co (og selvfølgelig Bramble, men for med er The Lucky Liquor Co et bedre valg).

Coming soon: Into the FUN FACTORY from AEG The Fun Factory is open for business! Get great deals on great fun, from brand new expansions to exciting reprints to a BRAND NEW GAME!

There will soon be a Kickstarter for a micro-expansion to Whirling Witchcraft called Whirling Witchcraft: Fantastic Familiars.
