Try searching at work for "puto" to show your friends a tasty Filipino cake and being confused as to why your search was blocked.

I read a lot of pre-Disney expanded universe books and comics. I was sad when they wiped it all away, then unsurprised when they took that content, threw it into a blender and vomited out a confused mess. This new Thrawn is a shadow of Heir to the Empire. I'd have loved a Rogue Squadron series too.

Yes. Loved cmus for many years.

I was genuinely disappointed that their advert wasn't for an adjustable shelf insert to better optimise for different sized games.

Always loved your videos and style and it will be a loss for all of us, but your happiness is evident. Look forward to seeing what you're working on, and I wish you great success.

Congratulations and your deserve every success. Thank you for the code, but you realise this is going to make me risk the gauntlet of the UK border checks again? 😉

@annablackwell.bsky.social Was great seeing you at UKGE. I did ask you there,but my brain is getting old and befuddled! Did you have a rough estimate as to when you may do your print copies of further Apothecaria expansions please? I work in IT but when it comes to games and books,I'm old fashioned!

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 31/07/2026

They've done this for ages. They kept updating my deliveries as "left in your safe space" and I had no idea what they were talking about. Though it beats Yodel and how they used to just shove parcels into the roadside of our front garden hedge.

Back this now! Short form TTRPG able to be played in a single evening. Works for both new players wary at the size of most such games and seasoned players who want a selection of interesting one-shot style scenarios. Each scenario will be accompanied by an audio podcast to assist GMs running it.

I have a bunch of these books by Stewart Cowley, purchased as a child from a bizarrely amazing second hand bookshop in my town called Camilla's and treasured all through my life. So we are definitely of a similar mind. archive.org/details/spac... www.camillasbookshop.com

Excellent, hope you get what you're after! I've got so many of the Traveller books, I really need to run it soon. Great reading even so, such a rich world they've built over decades.

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 28/07/2026

Any luck? I've been collecting Traveller books for the last few years and really want to run it. They have their new RPG out on Backerkit soon. Not sure if they'll offer other books, but may be able to grab something via that if they do and not available elsewhere. www.backerkit.com/c/projects/m...

Oh, Mongoose have always been amazing. Not had much need to contact them but when I have it has been superb service.

Good article, but why does your link show the source as Twitter? Surely that gives you false data and reduces the value of @bsky.app in your statistics?

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 22/07/2026

I have been listening to Chad and Chris on their podcasts for a long time. Their humour and imagination is superb and I expect that to shine through here. Check out their roleplay campaign and consider backing. I can't wait to get it into my tentacle paws. www.backerkit.com/c/projects/w...

Those LCD batteries have nearly doubled in price in the last few weeks, as I was looking at getting one recently.

010

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 15/07/2026

I am very unhappy. Was about to replace battery and they're nearly £200 suddenly. Been a loyal customer since I ordered day 1 release and I've gotten Valve many sales by showing mine off to family and friends. OLED hard to get and expensive now too. Doesn't bode well for v1 Machine and Frame support

000

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 15/07/2026

If you are going to drop loyal customers after what is really only a short time, how does that bode for the OLED, the Machine, and the Frame? I love Valve products and the openness and support, but this is the wrong decision, especially seeing how hard and expensive it is to get an OLED now.

000

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 15/07/2026

I was about to buy a new battery as mine is beginning to have charge issues. And in the last two weeks they appear to have nearly doubled in price, seemingly due to this decision.

100

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 15/07/2026

@valvesoftware.com I'm not happy at the discontinuing of LCD Deck spare parts. I bought it day 1 and continue to use it daily. I know it's been out a few years, and the OLED model has become the standard, but it feels as though early adopters who drove your success are now being abandoned.

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 07/07/2026

Why is it that I hear so many other public broadcasters having to say "alleged" when referring to claims made by various figures, but I'm hearing Chris Mason just repeating Farage's claims as if they were confirmed facts and he is his spokesperson.

000

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 05/07/2026

Or were there earlier posts lost for the months prior to that? I remember visiting when you were new but it's so long ago! It's been a great journey. I moved to using Linux as my main OS around 2010, still dual booting with Windows, and went fully Linux a few years later. You were invaluable.

100

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 05/07/2026

Actually, your site pages go back to 16/04/2011, but if I search for Osmos then I find an article from 14/04/2010. www.gamingonlinux.com/2010/04/osmo... And there is this from 01/04/2010. www.gamingonlinux.com/2010/04/welc...

What a shame! I remember going back to look at those from time to time. I'm sure one of the earliest was about you playing Osmos.

We are with an NHS dentist and our 10 year old child needed dental surgery for a ruptured tooth. The dentist kept cancelling over and over and even told us that they weren't doing NHS work as it wasn't worth enough to them. We had to pay private in the end as he was in so much pain.

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 19/06/2026

I missed that there was a giveaway at the end of your article! I'm definitely submitting for that. What I would also love are more trays with different options. 9 compartment wells with deeper trays. Larger card trays for really big decks (sleeved as well). Additional card sizes for trays. And more!

110

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 19/06/2026

I love Cube4Me and use their trays for so much more than just wargames. Cost, weight, and flexibility just cannot be beaten. It is so efficient to reorganise when I work out a better layout or move trays over to another game if I sell the original they were in. They beat bespoke inserts everytime.

210

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 17/06/2026

I'm sure they'll still be shrieking about pizzagate.

000

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 07/06/2026

Also, is there any consideration toward the trays with 9 wells being deeper please? I have some games where they have a bunch of chunky pieces and it would be nice to have an option for lobbing them all in a tray that has a few deep buckets.

010

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 06/06/2026

At the new Filipino Cuisine cafe in #Eastbourne Enterprise Centre. It's only just opened and still getting setup but the food is delicious!

010

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 06/06/2026

So you have each of the very chunky decks in their own card tray and plonk it on the table to use as an easy holder to draw from? I'm fine if the cards lie flat or sit vertically when on the table, so long as they are easily drawable from that one tray. And sleeved options too please.

100

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 06/06/2026

Feel free to quote me on that! I just love your products and really need to put a new order in. One thing I would love to see but I don't know if possible due to the wall structural strength. Could you make really deep card trays, such as for the full Spirit Island Power decks?

100

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 06/06/2026

Having tried a game setup and play, I see why Cube4Me has spoiled me. With bespoke inserts you are forced into someone else's pattern. With Cube4Me you design the storage layout to fit your personal setup and play workflow. And if you find a better tray layout later, easy to tweak. It just works.

100

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 05/06/2026

I'll be honest, I have buyer's remorse. The crate is awesome. But for less money I feel I could have a better, quicker, lighter, and easier to see setup with @cube4me.bsky.social inside that crate instead. And though I paid a lot for the Laserox organiser I may just replace it with Cube4Me trays.

110

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 05/06/2026

I have trays leftover that duplicate other trays. Trays with lids that don't tell you what is inside, meaning you have to go hunting. Lots of little trays that I have to individually get out, sometimes open and close, and pack away again in a specific order. Cards don't quite distribute as I want.

100

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 05/06/2026

I understand that they have to accommodate different people. Some don't sleeve, some do, some use insane premium sleeves. And they've tried to add some flexibility options. But somehow the organiser still comes off feeling both not flexible and not specific.

100

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 05/06/2026

It worked but I needed to tweak it somewhat, especially needing some more optimised card storage. The tokens were awesome though, love their trays. The Laserox seduced me as a bespoke option. And the crate is gorgeous, and I'm happy with that. But the organisers just don't feel quite right.

100

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 05/06/2026

I went to UKGE last week and in some excitement I bought a Laserox Spirit Island organiser. The one with a big crate and lots of internal trays. And I'm having some buyer's remorse. I usually go for @cube4me.bsky.social and till now I've had Spirit Island in that across two boxes.

100

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 04/06/2026

I was at UKGE and tried to make sure I was buying from stands confirming no AI in use. I wish AI had stayed out of the artistic world and stuck to giving me a self driving car so I can read while travelling, and helping scientific advances. That's all I really want from it.

010

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 29/05/2026

@ukge.bsky.social Shame you're not posting here anymore!

000

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 25/05/2026

Amazing feature! It is slightly hobbled by my chaotic breaking up of received sets to put into other games but it will help work out what I intended to do originally 😆 Wish you were at UKGE though but will need to put another order in afterward, I expect.

010

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 23/05/2026

Hoping to spot you there! Didn't realise you'd be coming, and it's our first trip since 2019 so we're ready to see and play as much as possible. Would love to see both games.

010

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 21/05/2026

What an excellent birthday present!

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 20/05/2026

Hoping you'll have physical copies of some of your games, especially expansions for Apothecaria and Delve.

110

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 20/05/2026

We went through this when we moved into our first property. Had to have all the walls chased out and a new board, wiring, and sockets everywhere. Worse than the cost was the dust, it was just pervasive. I didn't think you were doing UKGE this year but spotted you in their app. I'll be coming by!

110

bagwit @alepuddle.com · 20/05/2026

I got into Gaslands recently and have been having great fun, trying to trashbash as much as possible. Browsing YouTube and I spot @greigarjohnson.bsky.social and @chrislackey.bsky.social making together! Don't know how I missed that originally, but it's given me some excellent ideas. Thank you!
