Thanks for the timestamps. Think I'm gonna skip most of the players with repeated archetypes lol.

This is the one you want.

I've been listening in to the podcasts for the past week or so, catching up on old episodes and such. (I'm a total newbie, so I'm feeding my hunger for more info) and I signed up for the Patreon today as well. Keep up the good work and FLY BETTER!

I remember discussing nicknames with some friends in college and sportscenter came on and they mentioned Randy Johnson "The Big Unit" and my friend said something like "What? Now that's a nickname! I want to be called that."

Wow. Mishary is the kind of player every player should want to be.

You expect people to pay money for this!?!

jk love the show and not for the content. but if I post that after every episode it will drive Dee crazy.

Nah we'll do an actual one next time we can meet up!

... And hopefully drag someone in with us :)

BTW - I need to clarify that Duncan and I's list is called "Old Duncan's Johnson" for a reason - because we * both * built it (with some help from others in NonRonCon and the Krayts, might I add - this is why playtesting groups are so vitally important!).

To that end, I'd like to note I am a super **** and apologize for claiming it in my interview(s) - I was punch drunk with excitement for making the cut and that I actually had a good idea for once.

I am sorry, Duncan - may your old Johnson continue to shine!

We have the notes... We have the technology... We need to make the time...


...

...My body is ready.

I will back the patreon in a hot minute if we can get Dee, Ryan, and Dallas to do the commentary for some X-wing matches. The dynamic that you three have developed is stupendously entertaining. I want to hear the Mynocks calling an X-wing game in the very worst way.

I second that. I'm thinking it needs to be a celebrity match....like a Heaver vs. Duncan match where the lists are pre-selected by a panel of crazy people (practically any members of this forum) and they get 5 minutes to look over the list before it starts. That would be a hoot!

Patreon's would come in droves guys!

Skreeee

Not sure if Twitch would allow audio from one location to synch with video from another but that would make a live game much easier.

I think what I'd really like to hear is Dee, Ryan and Dallas to do commentary for my kids tee ball game.
