Any more recommendations betrayal at house on the hill is a bit poo poo imo. if you want a good game with traitor stuff get battlestar galactica (really needs 5 players). chaos in the old world is also really good but you need exactly 4 players. if you can get a regular group going then imperial assault / descent 2nd ed. are great.

Getting loving double dunted by the student loans bastards this month as somewhere between them and Network Rail they've forgotten to put the stop order on my account. After ringing the SLC 4 times and NR payroll twice, it's all sorted but I'm still gonna probably end up over paying as I only owe about £210. Thankfully the youth of today will never have to undergo this ordeal cos they'll never pay the fucker off lol

I don't have many, just monopoly, Zombies!!! and base Munchkin which I've never played because I hate having people over sat in my bedroom on the floor with boardgames. I will look all these up tonight, they have such good names. I was also looking at Paranoia a little while back, but seems it's gone out of print or is stupid expensive

Monopoly on the iPad is surprisingly awesome and risk is ok on it as well. No cheating in monopoly but you can set your own rules and there is a option to finish now which will auto calculate who got owned with no bitching or blatant shenanigans from the clear loser.

chess is good. and khet. scrabble is okay but it rewards board control way more than good vocabulary.

Fraction slept with a lady, who turned out to be Britains oldest woman. Phoon got upset as Fraction had slept with his wife. Bobby Deluxe was revealed to have no powers over the weather. no-one is still an alcoholic, but in an attempt to cut down now only drinks cocktails with erotic names.

Pedricko posted:What about me, Taff? - Pedricko asked for avatar suggestions and the usually unfunny cavalcade of posters all poo poo themselves with excitement at the chance to suggest a variety of sausage based tars for him. Meanwhile he toured Europe offering out his sausage and a sweet sweet goon discount for anyone who asked him the stairs question, however he has yet to give me free sausage and so therefore I still must brand his sausages as "shite, tasteless and tbh you can get better at the supermarket for half the price."
