Alright boys- This weekend, we go fight the ROBOTS

Unless we get more than 6 people, then we fight the OTHER PEOPLE THAT ARE SECRETLY ROBOTS BUT LOOK LIKE PEOPLE

Team comp is irrelevant, we can adjust missions to match.

Who is up for games this weekend? As above, MVM or becoming an entire half of a pub works. What times work for people?

I'm free both days after 3 Mountain time.

This weekend I'll be hiding in the woods, drinking beer. Best I could do is chat on steam, but I won't.

I've got tonight and Sunday night.

I think everyone forgot there’s a SYSTEM OPEN this weekend in Italy!! (I think it’s Italy)

Forget, or willfully ignoring?

I'd wager one of the three major lists would win, but it is Europe and sometimes there's enough creativity in the field that more escapes being filtered out. But that's a 'feel' rather than a mathed out response.

Edit: Wow, I'm snarky this morning... I need to stop and get some coffee. Operating without seems ill planned.

And if it turns into an all Rebel-with-TLT cut, you just say it was sarcastic. EZ.

Happy birthday to Tim Curry!

Well, that picture is pure nightmare fuel... Next google search... industrial sized night lights... Not clown shaped.

Good news, I was right, if you're not physically at the event, you're not a spectator, just an online bot (lining up with all the other FFG games). See the New Tournament Regs.

That seems ripe for a bounty for cheating on stream, especially those where there are no live commentators.

Nice.

Also of note:

  • Colour blind people may now mark their dials to remind themselves what colour maneuvers are - @Brunas
  • Players are dropped if they do not appear within a reasonable time limit. We'll get back to you on what that is... #FloorRules

the willful ignorance of reality just really bothers me. A Lot.

Our generation thinks it cool to search for truth, but very uncool to actually find it.

Pretty sure this is the forum equivalent to Planetary Alignment in our Solar System.

I don't think that's quite it, and it does go beyond just a single generation. Hindsight - do you remember the kids at school that got teased for doing well on tests? Isn't that what society is doing these days when somebody does the math and research, and reports on their finds? People who didn't do the work will mock those that have, and instead believe the creatively interpreted points within the data without looking at the whole...

They choose to cherry pick false facts to support their "feels" instead of admitting what they "feel" could be wrong.

EDIT: So to be clear, the part I don't think is correct is - People are not looking for the truth because they don't believe they are wrong on what they're perception of truth is.

I can't play TF2 until Sunday night, unfortunately.

Also, while we're talking/joking about looking for other games too, I was serious when I suggested Istrolid about 50 pages ago. Also free to play, also on Steam, also Multiplayer, but it's an RTS that plays something like X-Wing and Armada and where you get to design all your own ships from the ground up.

The graphics are simple, but the gameplay is complex, which is my kind of game.

Edit: the best games are the 3v3 team games.

Also, this thread runs me out of likes faster than an old-school Donkey Kong machine runs me out of money.

So I'll just say that I really unironically like that list @Boom Owl. It's legit. Also thematic. That's what would happen if all the bounty hunters were hired to catch the Rebels in a space harbor and had to disguise themselves as innocent tugboats.

Admit it, we'd all watch that movie.

I swear I've heard of @Boom Owl's list before... instead of taking the bus home after the party, the bounty hunters all jumped their own taxis.
