Football Manager 2019
As Football Manager 2019 was on sale I bought it. To my disappointment, however, it was the first version that does not support Linux in the recent years. Anyway, complaints be complaints, I will start my first game.
Custom Dominion storage
Last year I managed to find a group to play Dominion semi-regularly. It prompted me to buy yet another expansion. I picked Nocturne for its lack of extra components. It was probably a mistake, since Adventures, Empires and Renaissance all provide more variation to the game, while Nocturne adds more …
Google Code Jam 2019 Round 3
I seem more motivated to write about my failures. I sucked at round 3, and I immediately started writing this post.
Google Code Jam 2019 Round 2
Another Thursday. Another Code Jam review because writing about anything else would have taken even more time…

This is part III of my Clanricarde game. It includes the first conquests outside Éire.
Europa Universalis IV: Clanricarde (Part II)
This time I survived the early game. So I will start writing about this run. And hopefully, this game will be a fun one. I will try to use Irish names over the Anglicized names. Sometimes they are hard to parse, and I will include the “better known names” in …
