In an effort to get some post activity again, lets play hurt/heal with what I've decided to be "active" forum members! Each day you may choose to HEAL up to 3 members (splitting +3 points) and HURT one member (-3 points). Any member that gets reduced to 0 points is sent to the death realm and is no longer in the running towards becoming Americas next top model.


The game will last 2 weeks to prevent it dragging on. End date MARCH 31st


Here's a nifty memory-jogger for some of the "active" forum members:
Blue Ghost - quality content posts
NZs no.3 - your admin and site creator
taco - likes politics
womblemuppet - sleeps through arranged game nights, hates progression systems in games
Jargonion - is good at slay the spire, leaves the forum over minor altercations
Pythagean - posted heaps, content creator, now presumed dead
benswitch - actually posts about games regularly
Oathy - likes anime
silentsun - posts in waves every so often
Kalazarc - posts good shit once in a blue moon
tampenthusiast - quality forum member
crzytrane - lurks like a goddam whore

When do you guys reckon the Coronavirus sharecrash will bottom out? Considering sinking a few hundred dollars in safe shares/index funds while they’re low, seeing they’ll recover soon enough?

We've developed a hot new game: It's Monopoly x Trivial Pursuit, and incorporates a shot glass roulette wheel.


We made a couple drafts and had a few test runs, this is an optimised fusion of the dread and brutal attrition of Monopoly with the arbitrariness of Soviet-era trivia questions, with the occasional influence of mandatory gambling and drinking. This is the greatest game of this era.

Lets arrange some time to play!

Looks like the Sustainable NZ party wont even draw enough votes to dampen the Green vote


Vernon Tava set up the party ostensibly as an environmental only party which could form a coalition partner with either Labour or National. However it seemed pretty clear they hoped to be a National patsy party (ACT but for greenwashing), but as even that became too lofty an ambition, it was a shithouse effort to draw enough votes off Green to pull them below the 4% threshold.

looks like even that's dead in the water,

I wonder if TOP will ruin the Greens for them though? a good TOP surge will spoil both parties
If Labour was brave they'd set aside a safe seat for Green in Auckland central or Wellington central or somewhere else that's a millennial hipster enough of a bubble
