TBH I like it better than the base Betrayal at House on the Hill, which in itself is a pretty fun game.

That infant, as you tagged him, has been fully bearded since he was 17 (now 20 1/2). This is his theatrical headshot from 2021. The genes, unfortunately, are strong.
A young man wearing a green and white plaid shirt. It's a headshot and he's only visible from the waist up, sitting at a 3/4 angle pose. He's looking straight at the camera, has brown hair, dark glasses, and a close-shaven full beard.

hey what happened to defunding the police? Its not even on this list of options
Preferred options to balance budget To balance the budget, residents would prefer the City continue to offer the same services but not to the same level, for example reduced hours (39%), followed by an increase in business property taxes (32%). Businesses also prioritize continuing to offer the same services but not to the same level, for example reduced hours (43%). However, they disagree with residents on the next best option, with 32% selecting an increase in user fees for City services that currently have fees

defunding the police has more support than a 0% property tax increase among participants of the city’s budget survey

fund the city, the people said.
Top Five Suggestions for City Programs or Services to Reduce or Stop • Respondents who indicated they would support continuing to offer the same services but not at the same level or stopping some services, were asked a follow up question about which services they would consider this for. The following includes coded open-ended comments from residents and businesses that completed this survey question. • Feedback indicates a focus on changes to municipal operations that include reductions in City staff and streamlining services and departments. • Both groups also suggest decreasing the policing budget, improving fiscal management and reducing services and supports related to substance use 1 Police budget (14%) 2 City staff (14%) 3 City spending (13%) 4 Housing supports/ homelessness services (12%) 5 Services and supports related to substance use (11%) Base: Those answering Quotes: Stop funding the policy so heavily. Reducing City management staff. Reducing general staff at the City. Prioritize within the limits of the budget and not extend the budget. Low-income housing and supports to the homeless population. Safe drugs and injection sites should not be funded by taxpayers. usinesses (n=205) 1 City efficiencies (15%) 2 City spending (14%) 3 Police budget (14%) 4 Services and supports related to substance use (13%) 5 City staff (12%) Quotes: Why have you not looked at alternate more cost-effective service delivery rather than charge more? Cut the City of Vancouver budget instead of keep spending and ask for more property tax. Less funding to the Vancouver Police Department. Harm reduction services subsidized by the City; these are failing... Reduction in city workforce to right size the human resources.

He was everywhere tonight. I'm surprised he didn't get more points.

We were there! It _was_ a good game to watch. Crowd was a bit *Vancouver*, though.

I understood what you meant, but "happily married after 26 years" can also be interpreted as "it took 26 years to become happy". Which, ok, I'm glad they're finally happy 🤣
