My Bad!

I shouldn't have doubted MCG. Nathaniel found a legacy site where the original Cypher character builder remains intact, with all of our first-edition characters. Huzzah!

Wipeout

I do love Monte Cook Games, but I have to say that I was a bit peeved to find that when the online character builder tool launched for the new edition of Cypher, it seems to have wiped out all the saved characters from the first edition. I wish I'd had a bit of notice so that I could download PDFs of all the characters we've made over the past year or so. We would, of course, need to rebuild them for Cypher 2 anyway, but still...

Lanterns

Lanterns premieres tonight on HBO. Seriously hoping that it exorcises the ghost of Ryan Reynolds...

GM's Guide

The digital version of the GM's Guide for Cypher 2 just dropped!!!

Team Snapshot

Now that the Bearcats have become the last team to win their first Creighton Cup, I thought I'd tally up the team-level awards. The First-Place Pennant goes to the team that finishes in first place in the regular season, and the Creighton Cup, of course, goes to the champion of the postseason tournament. Here are the all-time standings, along with the season in which each team joined the league...

Team	First Season	First-Place Pennants	Creighton Cups
Bearcats	7	1	1
Bulldogs	1	0	2
Comets	1	2	2
Millionaires	4	2	2
Thistles	1	1	1
Victorias	1	7	5

The End of a Legend

Legend of Wukong came to a sudden end after a final boss fight that seemed rather too easy. Right up until the credits rolled, I was expecting one last plot twist or a bit more action before the "real" conclusion. In any case, the game was an absolute blast, and a worthy addition to my Evercade Hall of Fame. What's more, Wukong inspired me to pick up Journey to the West, the early Chinese novel upon which the game is (loosely) based.

Spinner

As if I needed any more evidence that Lumibricks is running circles around Lego, here's the new Blade Runner 2049 spinner. And yes, I've ordered it!
