Admittedly, there is a certain amount of that going on. But it's pretty minimal, in my experience.
Plus, I'm 6'3" (190 cm) and 285# (130 kg), so I've never really had anyone offer to start any particular unpleasantness with me.
In the absence of additional information, I went on the assumption that we got our REC, but nothing else. Probably another crazy 'Let's mix things up' thing from our esteemed Commissioner. Heaven only knows what he has in mind for the playoffs....
That's part of the reason I like taking public transportation. I can put in headphones, read a bit, and not worry about driving.
(Plus, the drivers here are [redacted].)
Mine are all ghost stories:
#1: "Ghost of Stephen Foster" by Squirrel Nut Zippers
#2: "Lamplight Symphony" by Kansas
#3: "Home by the Sea / Second Home by the Sea" by Genesis
Pretty quiet, considering the final week of the regular season starts in just a few hours.
We could really use some chatter from Brent, Nicky, and Lacey Jay right about now.
Your team's results are perplexing. You have good, solid characters, but you've been plagued by remarkably bad luck, in terms of both dice rolls and unfavorable matchups. I'm not sure what you could have done differently.
Lord Commissioner, would you be willing to leave the threads open for a few hours after a match is settled so that we could talk about that individual match?
