Do not engage. Just tell me to go back to Kiwi Farms where I waste days upon days crying about how I wasted years upon years on SA. Did you know I was personally responsible for SA's rise in popularity in the 00's? It's true! Just come to the Farms and find out how! It's the trash kingdom I deserve.

the only good catan is with 4 players minimum because the mystery of "which friend is going to leave the group as a result of this game" adds to the game

thankfully when we play 4-player catan we're all such assholes about it that we never end up getting mad at each other

i get ultra competitive when i play games against other people (which is why i avoid competitive multiplayer in p much everything) but catan is like the one place where nobody gets upset about it because we all get ultra competitive

Hello all!

Hope you are all having a fine start to summer! Just wanted to give you an update----the peppers are doing great, and really starting to take off. We even spotted a bunch of scotch bonnets and lemon drop peppers growing already, and tons of flowers. The PA weather has been fantastic for peppers so far this year----a little bit of rain, lots of sun, and hot hot hot (peppers love that!).

i used to read megatokyo (i was 16 everyone is shameful when their 16, stfu). are they aware that this guy is incapable of adhering to a schedule and will most likely spend the next 20 years whining about how much he sucks & posting lovely sketches instead of providing what they paid for? bc thats what fred "i cant remember his last name" gibson does
