Now that the season is over, what better time to restart the podcast?
 
I had an idea and Hadrian made a pretty remarkable thing. Listen to us talk about it.

Trying times we're living in, but while we're apart we're all in this together.

For those interested, here are links to the stat sheets from the two simulated games:

Marie-Ange vs. Kindha

Mehmet vs. Al

Keep in mind the Mehmet/Al game used an earlier version of the simulator that was a bit more random (hence unequal playtime, etc.).

Probably one of my new favourite terms

 

Also well done to everyone involved in creating this simulator. I'm excited to see it expanded to all 10 teams!

Weighted randomness is how I'm drafting my team if I ever GM a team in Parity (which will be called "Another Missed Opportunity", whatever the theme).

Also, I look forward to the time when "flatten the curve" goes back to meaning putting less loft on a hammer.

Well, I do love me some "thin gruel".

Also interesting to be listening to podcast game simulation, while simultaneously watching Mark Lloyd play real ultimate. 

Thanks for the fix, guys.
