@kindafunnyvids.bsky.social after yesterday's call for it, I'm starting a spreadsheet for pizza bets. KFBFs please send any pizza bets you see on content (since I can't watch everything). Or, if someone is already doing this, please let me know 🙂

@rogformer.bsky.social It's my birthday today, what are the chances of my birthday wish being granted (that I can binge-watch the DS2 marathon stream this week)?

@kindafunnyvids.bsky.social @blessingjr.bsky.social @snowbikemike.bsky.social BREAKING NEWS: There was an error in the scoring for today's Game Showdown (calamari game, where Greg got points but Mike should have too). That would've changed everything, and *somebody* hasn't yet earned their star!

...I think @snowbikemike.bsky.social was probably just fairly and legally attempting to balance the game.You earned as many stars as @blessingjr.bsky.social (including 2 you stole from him), it's just he stole 3 back from you for the win.

... In fact, 2 Times Champion @gameovergreggy.bsky.social never stole any stars but had both of his bought ones taken away, was the only person targeted by Bowser, and won the most mini games, so...

@andycortez.cool @kindafunnyvids.bsky.social Andy, I've reviewed the evidence and I'm sorry to say I don't think Nick is the reason you lost Mario Party. It's true Nick contributed to 7 of your losses, but he also contributed to 1 of your wins (by losing against you)...

Yay! It's a really good series so I'm invested in them trying it.

Not necessarily a myth, but having to explain that sometimes monsters are just kind of bad and it's morally okay to kill them! It was a unique twist on the normal reigning back of the murder-hobo, but in a one-shot especially you probably are going to have an encounter prepped at some point!

@snowbikemike.bsky.social Given your new-found love for Pokémon Snap: have you played Bugsnax ( @younghorses.com )? It's the game I wish Snap 2 had been!

Oh hey, I'm proud to contribute to worker-owned and independent new site Skybox!

This is my essay about having a stroke, losing the ability to write or walk or play video games, and digging myself out of that depressive hole using video games. It's maybe the most vulnerable writing I've ever done.

I could tell no-one else spent their teenage years staring shortsightedly at the Buffy s1 VHS box, lol. That one round specifically I would've aced.

I believe in you Nick!

@andycortez.cool @kindafunnyvids.bsky.social Please could you show this to Nick on Friday? When he started in Kanto he spent a long time ranting about needing more notes in circle form, so I made this to help him 😊 (It's all stuff he's already learnt!)

Was @vitzpatel.bsky.social trying to start beef between me and @sendnuggies.bsky.social ?? The 500 points proved it didn't work! #pixelpopstars
