Hi! My parents unearthed this from their basement. They want to donate it. Any recommendations for where I can help them find a person/place to donate it to? They live in Maryland and would prefer not to pay for shipping. It's very heavy. These are the best photos of it I have at the moment. I asked for better pictures, but haven't heard back yet.
My husband saw them destroying the beautiful tables and benches yesterday. Does anyone know why? I loved them! It was so fun to come out into the Square and see people eating, talking, chilling on their phones, and just enjoying the atmosphere.
Does anyone know if they have plans to replace them? Maybe they just thought they needed a refresh? Fingers crossed they're planning something equally whimsical and fun to put in their place?
I meal prepped this cold salad for lunches two weeks in a row. It was great! The first week, I couldn't find the bruschetta container, so used Pico de Gallo instead, and it was just as good. Both weeks I added a chopped up cucumber for added nutrients and bulk. Both weeks I ate this with pita chips. You could definitely recreate this without shopping at Trader Joe's, but they're the only place I've ever found precooked lentils.
In the Canadian table top game Crokinole, is it possible to shoot the disc to any spot on the board?
The game board is three concentric circles with a 20 point hole in the center. In a typical two-player game, discs similar to checkers pieces are shot across the board, aiming either for the center hole or an opponent's disc. Surrounding the inner circle are 8 pegs that the disc may hit and bounce off.
Assuming a board with perfect geometry, is every spot on the board reachable from a standard shot? In other words, is there any spot I could get my disc that he could not knock away?
Context: My husband and I discovered the game at PAX Unplugged and liked it so much we bought our own board. We're still just learning and exploring the game. As newbie players, we're wondering if there are some places my piece could end up that he could not possibly hit with one of his? (In a real game there are often multiple discs in play at one time-but for the sake of this question, we're dismissing all of those possibilities.)
Math: How would you go about answering this question? We can assume a 2D board and easily calculate the area of the board, discs, and pegs. We've thought about using a scale image to draw lines(with width equal to the diameter of the discs) in every angle from the starting quadrant. But this method of solving a math problem is time consuming and relies entirely on the accuracy of the image. Is there any algebra that could help?
