  1. Forgot to mention, I did the Lord's tour and saw the driest display caption ever:
  2. The County Championship is back, baby:
  3. FWIW, Terry and Dory Funk sold the Amarillo territory in 1980 because they'd figured out cable TV would mean somebody went national and there'd be no room for local promotions.
  4. Oof. Showed the BBC News report of this on Gogglebox and somebody described him as "The Mick Hucknall Forrest Gump."
  5. I think it's generally a workplace rule that if you're in a fight with colleagues where you're the first to get physical and you get suspended and then you come back and less than a year later have a fight with a colleague (three feet in front of your boss) where you're the first to get physical, you're probably not getting the benefit of the doubt.
  6. Surely it's as simple as the guy who takes out Rock has to be clearly established as retired/immortal/legend, otherwise you question why Rock isn't having a match with him next rather than wrestling either Cody or Reigns.
  7. Played Tokkaido: Crosswords, aka the first expansion for the base Tokkaido. It's pretty simple stuff: each location now has a secondary option that adds a little twist. For example, at the farm where you get cash, you can instead gamble your money on a dice roll. The hot springs (where you randomly get either 2 or 3 points) has a bathhouse where you pay a coin for a guaranteed 4 points. Most of them are along the lines of "instead of normal thing, pay a coin for something better" which makes the money management more key. It really doesn't dramatically change the gameplay, just adds a little variety if you've played the game a lot.
  8. It's heavily rumoured to be Minneapolis but it's an indoor stadium (albeit with a glass roof and most of one end.) But supposedly they haven't yet chosen between there and Vegas.
  9. Unlike in the actual McIntyre-Rollins match.
  10. The fundraising has absolutely shot up. Probably just the publicity but I like to think a lot of people were thinking "I'll thrown in a tenner, but only if he finishes" like it was a sponsored fun run.
  11. To be fair, Hardest Geezer defined "length of Africa" as "from the Northern-most point to the Southern-most point" which this guy didn't do. He "only" did North coast to South coast.
  12. Played Wyrmspan which is somewhere between a (fully authorised) remake and a spinoff of Wingspan. It's themed on dragons rather than birds and uses many of the same mechanisms, but with a few rule changes. You now have two types of card, cave excavations and dragons, and you need to play an excavation card in a space before you can put a dragon there. Meanwhile laying eggs and getting new cards are no longer actions in themselves and instead you can only do them as a benefit of playing a card. There's also a little "quest" tracker that you can move up as a benefit of some cards. Each space on the tracker gets you something (a resource or card or extra go) and going right rounf the tracker lets you claim an end game bonus, most of which are limited. The upshot is that it's slightly more streamlined than the original and less likely to fall into the "last round is just laying eggs" trap. I wouldn't call it better however: if you like Wingspan, this doesn't significantly improve it, and if you don't like Wingspan this probably won't make much difference.
  13. Just announced that in January he attempted straight line across England. Video coming May. (To be fair, Hardest Geezer probably now holds unassailable records for both straight line and no roads.)
  14. Slight detour away from Twitter, but here''s the full video of Lord White's appearance:
  15. https://www.youtube.com/@ajw_womens_wrestling_videos is the official one, though'll you need to translate the titles. Seems to be mainly mid-90s.
