Poor Twins. At least this Twins team is pretty good. That Twins team that played the Yankees in the Wild Card game a couple years ago didn't really have a hope.

Guess I was right on the Rays. Yandy Diaz is really good! ALDS - Rays @ Astros - Twins @ Yankees NLDS - Cards @ Braves - Nats @ Dodgers The Rays might give Houston a run for their money, so I might actually be picking Tampa to win that one; but I'd take the home teams (Yanks, Braves, Dodgers) to win pretty comfortably in the other Division Series.

I have always wished I could draw better, but things never come out on paper how they look in my head I'll follow along to see what you come up with! And maybe do some doodles in the margins of my notebook during quiet moments at work

Yeah I don't think the Yelich-less Brewers are going anywhere sadly

I'm not sure. I feel like he's lost a lot of his shine. But I could also see another team giving him a shot. Who you got in the Wild Card games? Rays/A's is a total toss up to me. I think I'd bet on the Rays with Morton starting... but the A's are a bit if a mystery to me, I don't know how they keep doing this. I think the Nats are probably the better team than the Brewers without Yelich, but I'll be cheering for the Brewers.

I hopped on the eShop the other day to look at the DQ games and other new releases but I got distracted by Crypt of the Necrodancer being on sale for $5, so that's what I played this weekend I didn't realize there was new stuff in the Switch version. I'd be happy to play the same old game anyway, but it's been fun figuring out what the new items do.

Yeah I figure Kinro's gotta lose now 'cause that's how anime works

The first 3 Dragon Quest games hit the eShop today, so I might be playing one of those a bit this weekend I'm assuming they are ports of mobile/Steam versions. Graphics look on par with the mobile versions of classic FF games. Gimme the FFV mobile port on Switch please Squeenix!

Now my man's got a TurboExpress too. Truly living the dream Watching this show makes me wish arcades had been even half as popular where I grew up. I don't remember any good arcades in my hometown.

@Psycho666Soldier A Farewell to Kings might be my favourite Rush album (it's between AFTK and Hemispheres - two incredible albums back to back) --- Found these guys on Bandcamp the other day. Brendan Canty and Joe Lally (Fugazi) along with a guitar player I don't think I've heard of before, but the dude can really rip. Also got some classic Air tunes on the playlist this week ... and a lot of the SUPERBEAT: XONiC soundtrack...

No exciting races this year. Too many teams that just aren't competitive. I'll wait for everything to be set and then start making predictions :)

I have discovered that there is more SUPERBEAT: XONiC DLC on Switch that I never had on Vita. Not sure if some of these tracks were ever available on the PS Store. So I got the SUPERBEAT bug again

Nice I've never won but placed OK a few times. Normally I lose pretty early. Gimme a Yoshi 99 and maybe it's a different story.

The primary/secondary business does sound a bit annoying...

I'm a few episodes into Hi Score Girl and it's pretty good. I love the tribute to the TurboGrafx in the second episode

I'm trying very hard to not spend money needlessly right now, so I think my willpower will win out... but it's tempting!

I find myself wanting to buy a yellow one

Thoughts? How does it feel vs. the regular Switch? Lighter? More comfortable? Is the screen good? etc.

Anybody here get a Switch Lite?

Nice picks. I've been lazy about acquiring Vinland Saga episodes, but I should check that out eventually. I have continued watching MIX: Meisei Story, Ace of Diamond, and Fruits Basket; and started watching Dr. Stone, To the Abandoned Sacred Beasts, and The Case Files of Lord El-Melloi II (part of the Fate series, set between Fate/Zero and Fate/Stay night). MIX is my pick for anime of the season. It's been very good since it started in the Spring. I like the characters, story, style, mix of sports / coming-of-age / slice-of-life-ish stuff. All around great. The beginning of the episodes gets me right into the mood every time: Pretty much ticks all the boxes --- Fruits Basket is a close runner-up. What a thing of beauty this show is. I'm going to miss it until it comes for season 2.

It was once again time for us to select our ANIME of the SEASON! If the list isn't too long, list off all the shows you watched during the Summer 2019 Season and then name your pick for AOTS - or a short list if there isn't a clear cut winner. Also free to discuss AOTS-adjacent things like "pleasant surprise" shows, disappointments, or whatever else comes to mind. gogogo

What do you do to make the web less shitty? Browser extensions, custom CSS, other workarounds to make poorly designed sites more usable, whatever else -- share your favourite solutions here.

That's a pretty good list web I've gone back to Chrome for a while now but have been thinking about switching to Firefox again. I really like what they've been doing with Firefox. I can't even remember now why I switched back to Chrome... I like to use the Stylus extension to sprinkle in some custom CSS, mainly to hide elements and streamline websites (like to get rid of a bunch of shit on these forums when I'm on desktop )

Turns out it was sulfuric acid

For me: - Ace of Diamond (pretty sure it will still be going) - Dr Stone - PSYCHO-PASS season 3 - Gundam Build Divers sequel - Sherlock something or other - maybe High Score Girl if I get around to watching the first part Been interested in Chihayafuru for a long time but I doubt I'll catch up on it any time soon. Also maybe the basketball show.
