My birthday is tomorrow :-) So, planning to stuff my face with cake.
Setting up a Pi Hole on my home network. I’ve never done it before so I have no idea if it will take long. Probably take the pug on a hike too. Oh, and playing monster hunter wilds.
Play some Traveller with friends tomorrow, tidy around the apartment so it looks nice when my wife gets back from her trip, probably take my dog for a walk or two if the weather allows. If I’m feeling inspired, I want to print some zines on local foraging and go around putting them in Little Free Libraries. Should be pretty chill, and I’m not mad about that!
Unfortunately more work I need to catch up on for my research MA program. But it’s just messing with some R code for analyses, which is much more preferable than doing any writing. Might bike to a cafe and work there for a change of scenery.
Going to visit Ghent with a friend so she can charge her company for the hotel and restaurants
Enjoy, Ghent is nice!
Stay inside, not want to risk getting taken by ICE for “existing”, probably continue my dedicated Minecraft server I been working on, modpack is techopolis right now. Or maybe some more Factorio. Got to keep the brain busy to distract my self from the facism that is happening, you know?
I’m playing in a Magic the Gathering tournament on Saturday with 32 players, the biggest i’ve ever been in
Nice! What are the prizes?
Pauper staples for the top 8: DCI Promo Counterspells, Dust to Dusts (the Dark), Mental Notes (Judgement), Snuff Out (Mercadian Masques), Krark Clan Shamans (Mirrodin), Lotus Petals (Promo 30th Anniversary), Boosters, and goodies like sleeves, deckboxes, playmats, sets of tokens, vouchers to print full proxy decks

That seems like a good prize pool for a 20eur entry! Good luck
Good luck!
TYSM ☺️
Best of luck! I’m pretty new to MtG but that sounds fun - what kind of deck are you running?
Thank you! This is a Pauper tournament, so all cards in my deck are commons from throughout magic history. I play black-red-green called Jund Wildfire.
It tries to win through attacking with creatures from MH3 Writhing Chrysalis, Nyxborn Hydra, Refurbished Familiar, with spells to draw a lot of cards and get more lands into play.
And you, what decks and formats do you play?
Oh I’ve heard of Pauper! That deck looks great, Nyxborn Hydra definitely seems scary 👀
I only play EDH at the moment, but I’m interested in trying other formats for sure. I play a white/blue precon called First Flight which I’ve slightly upgraded and tweaked to focus more on life gain, as well as a red/blue deck I’ve put together with Magnus The Red as commander, focusing on token creatures and dealing damage to all players whenever I cast spells! I’m pretty new to the game 😅
White-Blue flyers is sweet, I have fond memories of my Sephara, Sky’s Blade standard deck. EDH is cool because you can really tweak slowly your decks. Other formats usually have their own fixed list and you need to invest a lot to make a complete deck. At least in Pauper the individual cards are pretty cheap, you can get a complete deck for the price of a single chase-mythic
Get some rest.
Traveled to Washington DC to attend protests against this fascist bullshit we got going on.
Open invitation if anyone wants to come.
Boardgames tonight at my sister’s house. Mom’s visiting my house tomorrow evening to see our newly finished kitchen. We’re having Indian food. Excellent stuff happening.
Sounds fun, what boardgames do you like to play?
Given the shitty weather forecasts i hope to be able to ride my road bicicle on sunday. Some 80km would be great, but i guess i will be luclky to go for 50km. As for saturday, maybe swimming pool and lots of stuff to fix at home.
