8997 – Thurs

Leave a comment

Overslept – quick post while BHK gets ready. I feel bad – I wasn’t ready when my ride came to get me to the train.

Yummy, simple meals lately. Stir-fry broccoli w/tofu and carrot over brown rice day before yesterday and garden burgers with fried potatoes last night. Good stick to your ribs type stuff.

Ramsey’s Kitchen Nightmares – USA is a bit different than the UK version. I anticipate a physical fight in one of these, given our continent’s “Wild West” proclivities. You just can’t bawl some people out like he does.

Good synopsis here.

Game ideas developing in my head – Giants and Dwarfs, Pumpkin, and Rabbit, Fox, Bear (Brier Patch) – all are in the most germ-like beginnings.

Giants and Dwarfs is an “ants vs elephant” or Ogre “Big tank(s) vs many infantry” type theme.

Pumpkin is a multi-player maze game through a pumpkin patch. Possibly Team oriented, or every man for himself. (or both.) I like the idea of using eeore’s chessboard wedges for each player. Complexity seems to go up per increment/player.

RFB is a variation on King’s Table. (Hunter vs hunted) – Added theme of a Brier patch, and Uncle Remus.

Fun Quiz… I’m especially partial to the program that assembles the blueprint parts together!

Your home is a

Gamer’s Hideout

Your kitchen is stocked with chips, dips, and assorted caffeinated beverages. There’s a pantry with emergency backup caffeinated beverages. You also have some breakfast cereals in there, but you haven’t had breakfast since last Spring. Your master bedroom has blankets printed with images of Mario and Link. Your study includes unread copies of various gamer magazines, each purchased for the free demo CDs.

Your home also includes a roost for griffons. You’ve never actually seen a griffon, but you keep the roost ready anyway. Your guests enjoy your collection of every console and associated game ever made. Except the Intellivision — those controllers drive them NUTS. Outside is the moat that protects your home from goblin invaders and extended family.

Below is a snippet of the blueprints:

We do have a moat, actually – and our pantry is similar.
