It probably won't last but genuinely surprised that my selection of words today was good enough to score that highly. But for a short while, I can be extremely happy 😀

*blinks* Sorry, what?? Rank #1??

Screenshot from Outlier (word game) showing my score for today and that it current is the #1 ranked score.

Have to run some errands this afternoon, so alas, I have to cancel today's stream. Hopefully will get Detective Grimoire on the schedule again next week, though. Have some bonus cookies, though, cos you're all awesome! (Test batch of carrot cake cookies; appear to have come out well)

4 of these picks were absolute no-brainers for me, the other two might surprise some folks. But there are whole heap of honourable mentions: Vigilance, wither, defender, crew, afflict, suspend, shadow and dredge were all considerations for those two 'swing' slots.

Image comprising a table of 92 keywords from Magic: the Gathering and asking folks to select their favourite/best 6. Highlighted on mine are Deathtouch, Flying, Lifelink, Riot, Ninjutsu, Extort

Thanks muchly to @fanfinity.bsky.social and @danielcane.bsky.social for organising a fun event, showing off the joys of "the Gathering" part of this game, from competitive to casual & the spectrum in between. And for having myself/Brazen Coalition Games there as part of it!

Chronomagistrate / Anil@chronomagistrate· May 9

Morning all! The day is cool & crisp (and regrets for not bringing a jumper 😆) for Day 2 of Spotlight Series: London. If you're heading up, I'll be repping BCG in the Commander Creator Colosseum from 2pm, thanks to @fanfinity.bsky.social, with everything from PEDH to cEDH & brackets in-between!

Chronomagistrate / Anil@chronomagistrate· May 8

Resting after a nice day at Spotlight London, catching up with folks & wandering the stalls. Definitely a bit of reminiscing that the last time I was at ExCel was for MC1 back in 2019. I don't get to do the in-person bit of 'the Gathering' much atm, so was lovely to take in the environment again.

Chronomagistrate / Anil@chronomagistrate· May 8

Made it to the Spotlight Series event and having a chill one, catching up with folks and browsing the stalls. Hoping to get some games in with friends later, before the Creator Colosseum tomorrow!

Chronomagistrate / Anil@chronomagistrate· May 5
