My visualisation of L-space so far. It's close to halfway done, there'll be more walkways above and below. It's a delightful maze already. Instead of it being a library like L-space is, it's going to be my huge storage area. It needs so much acacia wood, but my buddies are helping me out here. :D

I'm playing on a Minecraft server with a bunch of good friends. My buddy wants to dig a tunnel to my place and create a train connection. Doesn't matter that he's about 5000 blocks away, he's gonna do it anyway.

So I decided to build a perron (station platform) for his arrival. I know where his point of entry is, let's see if he's as good at maths as I am. ;) I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, and for now it's good enough.

As soon as I unlock more stuff, I might upgrade bits here and there at this perron. For example... a real wide monitor with a large scrolling text of my station name is certainly a possibility. A large monitor with the current time and destinations is another. Just a li'l bit of LUA programming there. ;)

I've made some observations of cats in Minecraft.

As soon as you manage to tame one (sneak and feed it fish), it'll follow you around mostly like a doggo. But it won't go attack mobs like a doggo, instead it repels creepers. I knew that part already but to watch it in action is hilarious!

Creeper: "Oh, a player! *comes closer* Sssshhh..wouldn't it be a shame if you lost all your good stu--OMG WHAT IS THAT A CAT AIEEEE! FLEE FOR THE HILLS!"
And when it is done running away, rinse, repeat! Just stay near the cat, you'll be fine! 😁

And once a cat gets on your bed... they actually go lie down! See picture below! 😂

More carnage! Another gigantic explosion! A third town blasted by fire and fury! This time... it was intentional! 😋

I just nuked the capital. No, the bomb was not disguised as a lion corpse this time!

Wherever I go, disaster strikes. I might as well have nuked this village too. Somehow I've started a huge fire there. 😝

"It wasn't me, officer! It was this hellhound and its buddies that started the fire!"

"Well, how did that hellhound get into this village?"

"Ah, eh, uum... Hey look! A three-headed monkey behind you!"

#Games #Roguelikes #Elona

Yeah... this village ain't looking too great. 😂 Wonder if they'll rebuild this eventually or if it'll be permanent.

Come on, whoever would've thought of a lion corpse disguised as a nuke??

At least I'm getting some more unique cards and figurines for my museum now. 😋

Since I'm pretty unhappy about the 'fun' to be had in late-game LotRO, time for a new MMO to play! Or rather, time to revisit one we used to play the heck out of back then, but due to non-game related reasons we stopped playing and forgot about it.

I guess I'll be playing this little fella that's waiting for me in my character list. This is simply the coolest race of this game!

Guess? ;)

Went for a little new year's walk today in the park. I can say it's pretty cold out there. (Yes, @mur2501 . It's close to actual freezing out there, nowhere near a nice balmy 16C. 😋)

On the way we passed this tree trunk with all those mushrooms growing around it. It's like a little mushroom ring for fairies. It looked spiffy enough for me to take a picture of.

Lots of bare trees and dead leaves. And muddy ground from all the rain in the past weeks.
'Twas a good walk.

Happy Hogswatch! 😋

I saw a 'how do ..... people shower?' the other day, and remembered that I made this little piece of art four years ago when it was a meme-hype on Imgur. Enjoy! ;)

Cute, got a little Xmas gift from my job. A seasonal memory game with pictures of the Dutch Sign Language. I quite like the artwork! 😊

I hugely appreciate how Star Realms is a card battle game with very clearly defined rules and layout. Its setup is so simple that it can be used to understand other card battle games.

I've played Ascension before. It looked pretty interesting, but I didn't fully grok how it should be exactly played. Not much later I discovered Star Realms and have been playing that a lot ever since.

Now I'm trying out Ascension again. This time they have a tutorial (I just don't remember it being there last time), and I used Star Realms as reference. That made understanding Ascension SO MUCH easier!

All those various groups in Ascension; Enlightened, Lifebound, Mechana, Void.. they're comparable to the factions in Star Realms. The Mystics, Heavy Infantry, etc? That's similar in idea to Explorers. And the Constructs? Those are bases, plain and simple. Just an extra in this game are Monsters, but once you got the rest down that's not too hard a concept to grasp either.

Once I realized those similarities, I've been able to really enjoy playing Ascension. I can actually go explore the various DLCs now that the game has, each one changes the gameplay a little. But the basics are there.

Holy shit, holy shit, finally! The Legend of Korra is now on Netflix Netherlands! Woohoo, it's time to binge!

This is Suske, my kitty. People asked me what he looks like. Well, that's what he looks like, a tuxedo cat! He's not too overly happy about being locked indoors in the evenings. ;)

Protip: Cardboard makes for wonderful cat traps! #Cats

"I AM READY FOR THE PANDEMIC TO BE DONE!"

Totally the current mood. :P

And if my uncanny win in Love Letters wasn't enough, I also managed to have this huge victory in Backgammon Blitz where my opponent barely had the chance to move its pieces away from the starting position.

So, yeah, an astounding gammon victory for me! If only real life was this easy... :P #Games

That was a weird winning streak in Love Letters... this rarely if ever happens. Usually it's a close call with only 1 or 2 hearts difference! #Games

We got in quite a situation over in Rohan.

Protip: They hate fire! Just in case you run into a Nazgûl yourself! It might save your life someday!

Wheeeeee! Went grocery shopping and bought the latest comic album, Suske & Wiske #355! That's going to be fun reading today!

We can see that The Lord of the Rings Online has entered the festive winter season. Got him as a freebie from the dailies.

Good name too. I think I'll keep this name.
