Well that was fascinating, thank you

Thanks, I’m just starting out so playing with different ways of efficient manufacture, good to learn from the experts!

Do you bring all raw materials to the smeltery, or do you have a smeltery per material type?

Michael, but he prefers Mikey

I actually bought it yesterday, for much the same reason!

Hmm okay thanks, I was considering it for Christmas but I don’t think that’s going to suit my game group!

I read a lot of good reviews of arcs, how does it play?

Maybe this thread will be the start of something! What I liked about this challenge was the starter beak and feet, made it a little easier for those of us who are artistically challenged

Punk duck

My experience of sales is that it is mostly full of people who:

1. love the sound of their own voice
2. firmly believe that speaking without being interrupted is the equivalent of deep thought; and
3. are stupendously bad at admin and detail tasks

This makes the kind of situation that you were in both their natural playground and a complete nightmare. The c-suite tends to fetishize sales as the engine of the business, which also leads to an over inflated sense of importance.

Whichever colour is cheaper, that’s the one I’ll get…

I always thought they made them from potatoes

The Expanse. So much going on in that opening, plus it updates depending on what’s happening in the series.

Interesting, thanks! I’d only ever seen it as amusing (UK based so couldn’t buy it anyway), but good to know how it actually stacks up. I wonder if that also means that Nancy herself would have been better to just buy an index tracker and avoid all the negative stories!

For those of you in the US, the are a couple of funds which track politician’s holdings and invest/digest with them. NANC is the democrat tracking one and KRUZ is the republican tracking one.

This way, you too can stick your snout in the trough.

Slugabed I’ve used before, usually to describe me!

To paraphrase a shower thoughts post from a few weeks back though (not mine), why is going to bed early seen as pious but staying in bed late seen as slothful when the net result is the same amount of time spent in bed?

I know, that whole thing about Mediterranean diet and Japanese diet could just be based on pension fraud and bad record keeping

I thought it was really interesting actually, not sure why it won

TNG is"my" star trek, I watched it religiously when it first came out and even now the music has a curious feeling of comfort and safety about it.

I watched series 1 of Picard, it was okay. Started on 2 and stopped as soon as Q arrived, never liked those episodes of TNG either.

Just started on series 3, enjoying it so far
