Être physiquement « fit » est le facteur le plus sous-estimé pour améliorer sa vie et assez accessible

Déjà, ça te fait économiser du temps, de l’argent et des efforts. Quand tu es fit, ce n’est plus la tenue qui te donne une belle allure : tu peux mettre presque n’importe quoi et ça fonctionne, c’est ton corps qui fait la tenue, et tu va naturellement embellir ton vêtement parce que t’es bien tracé. Vraiment la dernière fois je portais un t-shirt blanc et un pantalon un peu large, un pote m’a complimenté « Ptn il te va bien le t-shirt ! »

Oue j’ai surtout perdu du poids et pris une tonne de muscles, tu m’étonnes qu’il me va bien le t-shirt 😂

Du coup, etre fit donne naturellement confiance en soi. Ça se voit dans la posture, la manière de marcher, de parler et d’interagir avec les gens et qu’on le veuille ou non, l’apparence compte. Les gens ont tendance à mieux traiter quelqu’un qui renvoie une image de santé, de discipline et d’assurance, vraiment tu passes de qq d’effacer à attirer l’attention de la pièce autour de toi??? Bon le visage on peut pas directement agir dessus, mais maigrir permet d’affiner certains traits et te rendre plus attirant I guess?

Le plus surprenant, c’est que ce n’est même pas un objectif si difficile à atteindre. Pas besoin de devenir marathonien ou de vivre à la salle : pour la plupart des gens, mieux manger, bouger un peu plus et être régulier suffit déjà à transformer énormément de choses, mais en 6 mois t’es plus DU TOUT la même personne, voilà, à mes yeux, aucun autre changement n’offre un aussi bon retour sur investissement

Looking for a group of people in Paris !

Hi everyone!

I guess this is a bit of a message in a bottle, but here goes.

I’m looking for Root players in Paris! My goal is to put together a regular group of 4 players and hopefully play around once a week.

I currently have the base game and every expansion released in French (except the newest one, since it hasn’t been translated yet).

As for my experience, I’ve probably played 30+ games. I have a solid understanding of the game and I also play other heavier strategy games like Arcs, so I’m comfortable with Root’s depth. That said, I’m definitely not a competitive player, and that’s not really what I’m looking for. I mainly play to have fun, explore different factions, and enjoy good games. I’ve also worked in a BarGame and explained Root to total beginners at least 10+ times haha

That said, if the group naturally becomes more competitive over time, I’m totally happy with that too.

Beginners are absolutely welcome, so don’t be intimidated if you’re still learning the game. As long as you’re interested in playing regularly and having a good time, you’ll fit right in.

For now my schedule is very flexible, so organizing sessions should be pretty easy.

Hope to hear from some fellow woodland war criminals!

Help me

That’s too much to handle, I feel like I’m playing like a 500-900 player. I can’t see anything. I’ve lost all my tactical vision and understanding of the game. I just don’t get why I’m falling so bad. These are played in a course of a week, I play a bit everyday and I’ve played for 10 years now.

I’m a relatively good OTB player, defeated ~2000 Elo players with ease at local tournaments consistently. I always had a good understanding and deep knowledge about chess, I have a pretty decent memory and just never really bothered getting too serious online to climb my rating so I always stayed in the 1400-1500 range because it suited well my needs of playing without sweating too hard.

Recently, I went to a tournament, and lost to 1000-1300 chesscom players OTB, and it stunned me. I was winning in every position, and just blundered away my victory. I put that loss on my fatigue because I didn’t get any good sleep, but later on I connect to my account and lose very badly. And over the course of a whole week, I kept losing, over and over, and it’s not like there is anything to analyse, I just do a HUGE blunder that gives a piece away, like an amateur would. I also feel like I can’t play my game anymore, that I understand less the structures of my pawns, that I can’t really put my king to safety, and my calculations are so slow, I sometimes need entire minutes to figure out what will happen after a simple trade of pieces…

I don’t know what to do, I love the game of chess, but it’s my first time in years facing that many losses against people who I could beat pretty easily a couple of weeks before..?

Anybody had a similar situation? Any advice? I don’t want to stop playing but my frustration is at an all time high

Root is a Dice game and I learned it the hard way

Context:

Eerie Dynasty 🦅 ; VS ; LotH 🐀

I managed to recruit with charisma every single bird in 2 turns, to over power the rats and domino them.

Guess what?

My first battles: 0-0 ; 0-0 ; 0-0 and 1-0

Rats first battles: 3-1 ; 3-0 ; 3-1 ; 3-1

I got 1 Rat, they got 12 birds

I lost. Why? Because of bad Dice rolls. And losing because of Dices is never fun. I’m extremely salty because I don’t feel like I missplayed, I feel like I just got bad luck, and this much bad luck is so unfun I want to never touch the game ever in my life.

The game didn’t seem fair at all and I had no way to comeback

Any ideas how to use the small radiator panels in low tech builds? :)

I would love to know what are these actually for, and do they have any practical use in the tier they are unlocked at? The game should have a logic on to why we have access to some parts at some moments right?

So now that the Homeland extension is out, what is your solution to store everything in an ergonomic way?

I’m tired of bringing 3-4 boxes with me every time I want to play with friends, did you find a way to store everything? :)

Played a game with Cats, Moles, Vagabond and Rats, and nobody was really able to stop me, what should the table do to take down the rats?
