I've spent the last three days at WELLYCON, teaching people how to play Cut the Deck! Everyone truly loved it; I saw some genuinely epic combos get pulled off; and I met lots of cool people too. I'll definitely be going again, even though a display wall fell on me when someone on the other side leaned too hard on it! lol!!
Thanks to all the patreon supporters who stopped by for a game, like Alex and Greg! I appreciate your support but I'm happy to crush you in battle any time.
I've been talking shop with a few of our retailers and they're enthusiastic about our broad plans for an expansion pack, which I'm keen to move ahead with once we've finished a few things we promised to do from the last campaign.
Oh and I finally got my taxes sorted! Ew!
Last week you may remember I talked a little about how I'm changing tact with the /r/comics subreddit. Apparently other people are dissatisfied too and there's been some heavy conversations going on behind the scenes. I've been busy though, so I don't know all the details. Stay tuned?
I have been playing Expedition 33, which is really good! I've just started Act 2 so no spoilers please! I've also been keeping up with Taskmaster UK.
There'll be some new Choplet DnD content going up on Patreon this week, with help from another DnD creator! Stay tuned for real!
Newsblade out!

If you're enjoying Jason Mantzoukas' manic energy, I highly recommend jumping on YouTube and googling "Jason Mantzoukas dumpster" or listening to the "Derek" episode of the Good Place Podcast. He's great.

I was wearing the Baguette outfit! I have regrets!

This season of Taskmaster is even more chaotic than usual π

I just started Act 2 last night in Clair Obscur too!! That Act 1 ending was PACKED. So emotional π
Matthew Wills
Is it? Maybe I'm better off not knowing.

Hahahaha shit is CRAZY behind the scenes of r/comics right now. HOPEFULLY it's swinging the right way though π€π»

I moved because everyone on my side packed up and went home early and then I immediately got a sale! So I should have stolen their spot as soon as they left. Live and learn! There was a pillar next to my stall which would have stopped the wall, but I was the one who caught it before it bonked anyone on the head.

I wasn't keeping score against everyone, I should make an XP tracking sheet next time. Thanks for the game!

Woah, didn't expect a mention. It was really cool to meet you, and also lose to you twice in Cut The Deck.

It was awesome meeting you at Wellycon, thanks for teach me the game! I loved it! Can't wait for the expansion pack that you mentioned! Also ouch! I saw one of the Zig Zag Tag staff walk over to one of the volunteers mentioning that a display wall fell, didn't realize that it fell on you! Hope you were okay! Also that explains why I saw you moving over to the spot where Bea DnD was at.
