That's great! Since most of the people I play with are scattered geographically we play with the app and I actually learned via the app before getting a chance to play it on the table. It's definitely a game where a lot of thought has been put into the tutorials

According to some people on the fediverse, the Kagi forum thread that is linked in the toots I posted above and seemingly nowhere else.

From a non political standpoint: I tried Kagi last year and it was ok but I didn't get the big deal. And because I'm not in the US but the UK if you try searching where's my nearest garage or stay the nearest result came up as 150 miles away. So it's one of those things I'll maybe return to it once it's developed a bit more

The definitive Doctor for me. Growing up during the wilderness years and VHS and UK Gold repeats were what we had to go on I loved both the earlier 'horror' seasons and the more humorous ones with the Romanas.

Wonderful actor.

Ace and the 7th Doctor were the first Doctor Who I saw - her beating up a Dalek with a baseball bat is my favourite companion moment ever from all of Who!

The sources I find are solely from mastodon threads, and date from this month and the Brave thing. This is the best thing I've found

Love his Thursday Next books to bits!

It depends on the game, character etc. I mean I suppose it adds to the escapism slightly?

I play all sorts of different games though, some where you're not given the choice (Life Is Strange for example) and I don't feel like it's that big a deal

Are you Ian Levine?

 

New entry in my blog about media that shaped me growing up - my first memory of TV is the famous cliffhanger to part 1.

I'd maybe still rate it as the best Dalek story but I can't be objective about it really!

Awful layout... Some interesting stuff when you can actually find the articles though

It could grow on me. It's hard to tell without seeing it in action

Not that it's especially convincing but I think that the idea was that he was 'playing a game' when he'd been doing that stuff with the salt and then thrown it out into the ether for no reason other than messing about.

Or something? I don't know. Much as I love a lot about RTD as a writer, he's definitely not a details man on story elements...

 

As sci-fi show’s 60th anniversary nears, a collector pleads for BBC to offer amnesty to those with recordings discarded by corporation

 

Well this could be very interesting indeed... Obviously the main question is how on earth can they cut anything from that story down to 75 minutes when it's already such a lean script with no padding at all?!?

I'm a huge Troughton fan though, and while I'm g glad there's been something of a First Doctor revival in the last few years it'd be great to see a colourised Mind Robber or something as well, not that it will happen...

 

It's nice to know that they're planning to do some more Hartnell animations. Although The Smugglers would seem like quite an odd choice

 

With every available Doctor Who episode and its wife coming to BBC iPlayer on November 1, how should you approach a Classic and NuWho rewatch? We have options...

 

Doctor Who fans can look forward to new interviews from Russell T Davies, Steven Moffat and Chris Chibnall.

 

People who have turned to X for breaking news about the Israel-Hamas conflict are being hit with old videos, fake photos, and video game footage at a level researchers have never seen.

 

Morrissey must track down the missing sheet music for 'Suedehead'

 

Can you blame it?

 

I rewatched this again today and I actually quite like bits of it it I just don't understand what the hell is going on. How much of it is 'real'? Is any of it? Reece Shearsmith's character says he's just there to make a good story to keep us watching... So did The Doctor even land?

What are other people's thoughts on the plot of this story?

 

Do people here actually think this is true? I'm not so sure myself. There may be the odd episode but I'm quite doubtful that there's masses of episodes just being sat on by collectors.

The person in the article doesn't really seem to have any evidence for his claim
