More broadly: thanks for all the 'welcome' replies! (it feels vaguely like the culture here would be to doublepost rather than edit, apologies if I'm wrong)

Welcome! Hope you find some things to interest you here! What sort of games do you like?

Mostly puzzle games (actually just regular abstract puzzles but they're digital so they count as games!), some JRPGs with the turn-based combat. I'm looking forward to the Four Job Fiesta for Final Fantasy V. Oh, also: Trombone Champ. (I was further into Blaseball when it was briefly a thing, may it Rest in Violence)

I played a lot of tabletop games - particularly board and roleplaying - at uni (I met Jubal through first running the weekly friday board games - and I think I recognise your picture as someone I met through him! - and was even chair of the Tabletop Gaming Society), but since moving back to Leicester not so much!

I've certainly kept up with reading rulebooks for games I will never play/GM (not that I was a particularly good GM), though!

In the digital/analogue crossover space, I go through phases of playing a lot of Magic the Gathering Arena, though I'm on a bit of a downward phase there. Likewise I did a big spate of playing Chess, losing a few rating points, and then falling out of the habit.

(work is particularly busy at this time of year, though, which never helps!)

Hi,

I'm Alicia, and I have a few friends already on the site!

Finally decided to actually join due to the Reddit blackout - and realising that my prefered 'Reddit competitor' would be an old-styley web forum, and I happened to know of one which touches on various topics of interest (mostly gaming, some history).
