I spent a little more than 2 hours last night in Ark trying (and succeeding) to get 2 L shaped sections of a structure to have ramps lead down with a proper concave vertex. Ark doesn't have a great building system and the way it handles clipping is to not, so the vertex, even with the mod, was very trying on my patience.
Tonight, I'm going to work on filling in some gaps around the rest of my area, and maybe rebuild some walls so that they line up evenly.
Sure would be nice if someone like Kelly logged in and helped me to end the boredom by letting me help them to get started, or something. It's boring being alone.

@Grey I've pretty much sworn off MMOs or anything that smells of them because of how my life looks after I start to get in to them.

Even having a life after starting one is a huge achievement. Be proud

I put quite a chunk of years into WoW. It wasn't healthy, but neither was I. Now we're both better off

I finally manged to snag a Nintendo Switch through online ordering on Walmart. I'll let you guys know how I like it when it arrives later this week.

we have the same exI managed to quit WoW when the first expansion dropped. /played was a horrifying thing even at that early date. Had I stayed on I do not care to think what it may have become...

I play WoW. I picked it up again when the Wife started playing with some of her other friends. Thing is, as much as I love games like WoW, I still prefer to find other things to do too. If I have nothing better happening, then I'll play WoW (or any game, really), but if the mood fancies me to read for a while, then that's what I do...
WoW is not my life. Come on everybody. With feeling! "WoW is not my life!"
I can't hear you! (/me checks batteries).

It's different if you are pushing content and trying to be competitive. I was in Vodka for years and we were doing world first content

Yeah, I'm not in a hurry for content or anything like that. It is how I stayed in touch with friends and all that jazz.

I never got involved with WoW. When it was young, I tried it for their free week and I found it to be a solitary existence in a world full of players.
EverQuest, however, was my thing for about 9 years. I met some RL friends through there which I continue to be friends with even though we don't play EQ any more. We do play Ark, Minecraft and AD&D, though.
I appreciate that Minecraft and Ark help me to maintain my Linux skills, too. Running those two services on an Ubuntu platform helps me keep on top of skills that might otherwise wither and die since my day-to-day is all windows and GPO this, AD that.

My friend's bringing over his girlfriend tomorrow to play board games. The only board games I have right now are Boss Monster, Netrunner and Pixel Glory. I think I might need to go to a local comic store or something and get lucky.

Pick up Mysterium if you want a different experience then the ones you've listed. Fairly quick games we've played it 4 or 5 times and every time is slightly different but very rewarding.

Thanks for the tip. I'll add it to the list. I want to see if I can find Ground Floor locally as well. Great game.

We also really enjoy Codenames and Spyfall as party games.

In my experience (not being sexist, just observational) many women enjoy coop games more than direct competition oriented ones. Pandemic is probably the top of that stack, but there are a lot of options out there.

Haha, I've found that women are more likely to try different games then men. But I think I'm a bit biased because I prefer coop games.
