However, my adult memory questioned itself and I went down an internet wormhole. Was it 5 seconds? Is that a thing? It’s the concept we had as kids that if we drop a piece of food on the ground and wanted to eat it anyway, five seconds is not long enough to obtain germs and therefore, it’s okay to eat it anyway. Each success rolled by the soldiers assigned to the current mission adds a success token to the mission. To complete a mission, the soldiers need to complete three tasks, each of which requires the soldiers to earn a specific number of success tokens. I have been monitoring the logs ( dmesg, Xorg.0.log, journalctl ) and paying attention at the exact moment the fps drop occurs. However, I do not see any changes in the logs, all seems normal.

There is an issue that occurs almost every hour or 45 minutes, it is not constant. I thought it was related to overheating, but temperatures in GPU are almost always over 70° and below 80°. CPU temps are almost always over 90° when gaming, but it seems that is "normal" for this laptop. Your dice pool is generally equal to the number of resources you’ve committed to the task. For example, you get one die for each Interceptor you’ve committed to combat the UFOs with which it’s engaged, or one die for each scientist working on the research you’re attempting to complete. Similarly, you get one die for each soldier assigned to your base’s defense; however, you roll an extra die for each soldier who has received officer training and an extra die for each soldier whose skills match those indicated by the icons on the alien you’re aiming to defeat.

Each success rolled by the Interceptors assigned to global defense destroys one UFO with which it’s engaged. The uncensored version (like the one I own) is rated for ages 17 and up, but the generic version can play anyone from younger kids to grandparents, making it a fun game for just about any age group.

The describer draws a card from the "OUT" side of the card box without looking at the words before the timer begins. Each card has a yellow side and a blue side and the player will read from the side that corresponds with the colour square their token is on. There are five words printed on each card side. Personally, I think you could also easily make your own rules here and play in teams but take turns. For example, you could take separate turns but collect points as a team. buffer] columns=200:interleave=true:update-dispersion=0.9:update-fraction=0.5:update-method=map: FPS: 1866 FrameTime: 0.536 ms Now the team decides on a describer for the turn, while the rest of the team will be identifiers. All players must take their turn at being both describers and identifiers. The describer within a team must rotate with each turn. [2]I'm testing with 3440x1440 resolution at 144Hz in a external monitor. Changing resolutions to 1080p and 120Hz do not help, same issue is present even when temperatures are lower. The aim is for their teammates to guess as many correct words on the card as they can within the time limit for the chance to move their team's token towards the finish line. The idea for an Irish version of 30 Seconds occurred during a phone call between two Irish friends, Greg Dooley and Liam Ryan. Under the company name of Woodland Games, the pair, alongside the original inventor of the game, Calie Esterhuyse, carried out extensive market research before releasing the game in2010. [4] Dooley, a former teacher from Cork, is the de facto editor of the Irish edition, going through all 2,400 words to see what needs to be updated or localised. He believes that the popularity of the game comes from its broad appeal "across general knowledge, sports, politics, pop culture, celebrities". [4] The game was played again a year later at a beach house at Great Brak River where Esterhuyse was present – and this sparked the idea of creating an exciting board game with a similar process.
