  1. For as chill and relaxing as this game has been for me in a tumultuous time, the quest to find a cicada shell is starting to make my blood boil. My wife found one on Monday, which means that we’ve seen exactly that one spawn in the entire month they’ve been available in NA.

    I play at various times throughout the day and have tried all the tricks I know of and...nothing. I know they’re still around next month and it’s already in the museum, but man, as someone who likes to check things off of a list, it’s been quite frustrating.

  2. I almost never turn down villagers who want to leave. I've had my original three (Curly, Clay and Patty) the entire time, but that's just because they haven't asked to go. Molly has become my favorite, so I'll definitely encourage her to stay.

    AC:NH and Slay the Spire are the only games I've played with any consistency this year. Pretty much the perfect game for my current state of mind, too. Glad I picked it up. It's the first AC game I've ever played and I wasn't sure I'd like it, but I bet I'm closing in on 250 hours at this point. Sometimes I'll just mindlessly fish for hours because, well...it beats thinking right now.

  3. No longer playing the turnip market. I will remain a fruit magnate instead. Finally had Redd selling statues today. He’s by far the rarest visitor for me and has only carried paintings until today. 

    Instead of paying off my final loan, I am instead demolishing all of my old, cheap bridges/inclines and fancying things up a bit. 

    New villager this week. It was my wife’s turn to pick, so Yuka the koala replaced Diva the frog. Works for me. Not getting rid of Molly ever, though. Number one and the best!

  4. Don't quote me on it because I haven't actually played the game yet, but my understanding is that while there are multiple endings, they're not tied to the Samurai/Ghost reputation stuff.

    GS finally has this back in stock. I wasn't around release day and they sold out instantly both there and at Target. Finally going to pick it up today. I'd avoided ordering it online because I have a trip home to PA coming up and didn't want to risk it being delivered while I wasn't here.

  5. I watched AWA as a kid, but it was always way down the list of my favorites. Revisiting it years later, that’s largely still true, but I did grow to appreciate a lot of it. Crusher Blackwell, for example, is one of my 2-3 favorite superheavyweights ever.

    You know who else is great? Stan fuckin’ Hansen. These two beat the shit out of each other and I just wish it was longer.

  6. Shit...I guess I have been here since ‘99, then (found my way from Shootangle, which I think was Zach Arnold’s site). And still do far more “lurkin’ and learning” than posting. I’m just glad I’ve never said anything dumb enough to be turned into a board meme. Just dumb enough to be ignored. Heh.

    Since we are more than halfway through the year, what are on people's shortlist for best matches this year? Props to @The Naturalfor his WWE match of the year list, used it to catch up on the year on their side of things. 

    My favorite match this year  might be Tetsuya Endo vs. Masato Tanaka from Night 2 of DDT's Peter Pan show. Really shitty referee work drags it down a little, but man is it ever a fun watch.

    When Savio finally comes out, you can see the fans by the entrance literally jumping up and down in unison. Every bit of this is great. 

    I sorta wish Thunder y Lightning had any sort of run in a mainland US company. As far as PR Wrestling goes, they're among my favorites. They didn't always get the best competition to work with, though.

    Not sure if this is happening, but a Global Wrestling Federation reunion show is ... different. Bring on the bungee cord match.

    I like how they can't even spell Sweet Daddy Falcone correctly on the poster. And man, I haven't seen/heard/thought of Kenny the Stinger (he teamed with Falcone later, right? Vito Mussolini or some such?) in a long, long time.

  10. Anyone know much of the show with the UWF Western States Heritage title tournament end up being taped? From 6/20/87, I believe. While I'm interested in the tournament as a whole, I guess I'm mostly wondering if the Steve Williams/Dusty Rhodes vs Dick Murdoch/Eddie Gilbert Bunkhouse tag made tape. It wasn't on the 80's Midsouth set (which I am overdue to go through yet again), but with new footage popping up here and there, I wasn't sure if it ever saw the light of day. I scanned the TV results for 87 and didn't see it there, either.

    Here's the full show in question. I bet that Hayes/ Flair match is worth a watch as well:
