Curly's World

I would say that modern gaming is less and less a "male thing". Of course, some people see this as a threat and start to defend it as a male dominion. There's this nice presentation how game developers are responsible for peddling a male power fantasy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eY90symFHaY and...

Go for it, you should have rights to change anything and everything on that server now.

I've been thinking of starting a Discord server and seeing if I can get as many people as I can from the old OG crew to join. It's just a matter of overcoming my own inertia.

Ask and you shall receive, https://discord.gg/pwqywd7

Hello.

If you're reading this, then we have safely arrived to a yet another new era of Curly's World. You should not notice anything changing.

If you do, please let me know.

Afair CWF at its peak (which was also the beginning of its demise) covered 350 to 450 games (correct me)

417 games...

That video doesn't seem to exist...

Merry Christmas to everyone who still occasionally ends up on this forum. I spent a week recently in Washington DC and I was surprised how many model trains there were in public. The National Christmas Tree was surrounded by them and at US Botanical Gardens they had built tracks around the plants . ...

For once, the spambot posted in the right forum and was on topic.

I think Gilbert released a new game that is not Blackwell but very close to it.

The new show from Matt Groening, Disenchanted, feels a bit mixed from me. It's clearly similar to Futurama but not as nerdy...

This is the special version of Clustetruck that parodies Superhot.

Forums are still a very used medium as long as it has a topic to be centered around (a game, a hobby and such). Yeah, but I think they are now very much consolidated. You talk about games, you go to Neogaf/resetera, you talk about board games you got BGG... the age of small boards is pretty much go...

Half-Life turns 20 years this year. Your screenshot also reminds me that I never played the Laura Bow games...

I think Igor refers to the Igor: Project Uikokahonia? I never played the full game, or... maybe I did, I can't remember.

The BBS had a good run, the phpBB boards had a good run, but now that the Internet blew large the people who posted on forums have moevd to closed communities while everyone else went to more public social media sites. Yeah, this forum created a group of friends but in the current climate, can a for...

Actually, it was MI2 and I thought I needed a stick. I can't remember if on second try I realized I didn't actually need a stick.

That is patience. I remember getting stuck on the first Monkey Island, if I remember correctly I wasn't able to find a stick or something, and it took years before I continued the game.

I guess no-one cares about the Truth anymore =)

I have to say that throughout the years I have thoroughly enjoyed reading your updates, Railwaymodeler.

I think this insane thing of doing Tetris on Conway's Game of Life has some ideas about abstractions.

What's the link between formal logic and chaotic, irrational human behaviour, Zyx? Do we know more now? The never-ending fight against entropy and chaos. Computers and logic systems are created by humans and have certain assumptions about their existence that set limits but also mean that everythin...
