Benign Super Powers

September 19 2017


I was wondering what everyone's everyday superpower, the kind of stuff that you know you or someone you know is really good at, but is not something the Avengers would necessarily brag about. 

For example, I had a boss who could count and sort money faster than a teller machine at a bank. No joke, I have never seen money, especially US currency, sorted so fast. 

I also know someone who never has problems with their shoes coming unlaced. So, I guess they tie really great knots. 

I am really good at picking paint colors when I paint for pleasure, or picking out wall colors, or color matching for media projects. Like really good at it, why I don't do graphic design is beyond me.

More of an NHL series fan myself.  If you make the shift to an ice surface, let me know!

NBA 2K18?

September 15 2017
Off chance anyone play? I'm going to buy next week at the official launch. I had 2K17 but I had a weird issue where nothing in the game folder would save on my computer. By the time I figured out exactly what the problem was, it was almost time for 2K18--if I have the issue this time round, I at least know how to solve it.

Anyway, I like the game mostly to design uniforms and arenas, but if anyone's interested in playing me, hit me up. I promise I suck and your player rating will surely rise.

SURVEY: SGN Gaming Night?

September 13 2017
So ladies night is a go? Woot, let me get all the girlfriends together. We going to hit the town and get those free drinks like all the other bishes do. Get your best strut on ladies. Better be wearing those scants. Lol!

P.s. I would not discount the table top games idea too quickly either. Seems like a nice thing to break up the monotony now and then once things become routine. Roughly 44% is still a good number.  I also really like the pie charts and breakdowns. Great work!

SURVEY: SGN Gaming Night?

SGN Gaming Night Results:


Thanks to everyone that took time out to fill in this little survey.
this gives us as a fleet quite a lot to go with, not just for game up night events... but for future Stonewall Large events.

Here are some of the feedback graphs that everyone contributed too..


===================================



First Person Shooters came out on top, it looks like most of our members are interested in games like Call of duity, Destiny, Halo etc..
Second to favourite is Team Up games.. they could consist of GTA online, Smite, heros of the storm






Weekends are a clear winner here, though Thurs night seems a possibility to.


======================================


Game suggestion Feedback:

a lot of great feedback given into what games you would love to play with others, some ive never heard about, and they seem great fun...

  • Destiny
  • TableTop Simulator
  • Yugioh
  • Warframe
  • Spla2n
  • Space Engineers
  • Star Citizen
  • Pulsar: Lost colony
  • Dreadnought
  • Payday 2
  • Borderlands
  • Mass Effect Multiplayer
  • planetside 2,
  • Dragon Age multiplayer
  • Anno 1404
  • Endless Space
  • Civilization V



Thanks again for this information, this will give us some idea not only on the games we would most like to play as a team... but also peoples availability. being that we are a community that spans the globe, finding the perfect time for everyone to join in on an event is the most challenging.

Using our SGN discord.. dont be afraid to create game nights of your own, to ask out if anyone wishes to join you in a certain game. 
We are all here for one reason.. to have fun in a comfortable environment with others who share similar interests and lifestyles, to team up with fellow members, to encourage the more recluse of member to jump in and enjoy, make memories.

Stay tuned for various game night call outs soon!

Rocking out TOS style!

September 09 2017
A friend posted this on her fb wall, and I just had to steal it. Awesome, no? However, I think Uhura should be more central, Nichelle Nichols has a beautiful voice....why is she not on lead vocal?  :)

Woah woah woah, Dave has a poker night? Why wasn't I told about this??? I'd love to join it, but I never heard about it before (ref: like two secs ago when i said it, durr, lol).  I think this is a great and wonderful idea all around. I'm willing to hang with everyone from any side of the globe most hours. :)

Pride!

September 08 2017

recommend others have a search and watch it I do see mind.

Pride!

September 07 2017

I just thought I would share this, in particular for our non UK friends who may not yet have seen the film 'Pride' 

Here is a synopsis from IMDB 

In 1984 20 year old closet gay Joe hesitantly arrives in London from Bromley for his first Gay Pride march and is taken under the collective wing of a group of gay men and Lesbian Steph, who meet at flamboyant Jonathan and his Welsh partner Gethin's Soho bookshop. Not only are gays being threatened by Thatcher but the miners are on strike in response to her pit closures and Northern Irish activist Mark Ashton believes gays and miners should show solidarity. Almost by accident a mini-bus full of gays find themselves in the Welsh village of Onllwyn in the Dulais valley and through their sincere fund raising and Jonathan's nifty disco moves persuade most of the community that they are on the same side. When a bigot tries to sabotage the partnership with a tabloid smear Mark turns it back on her with a hugely successful benefit concert to which most of the villagers, now thoroughly in tune with their gay friends, turn up. The miners are defeated and return to work but at the Pride march the following year a vast contingent of miners show up to repay their comrades with their show of support. 

Be warned you will need a box of tissues! (Behave!) 

My first pride march was in 1982 I attended in 83 and in 85 and witnessed the miners coming to support us. It was a seminal moment in LGBT history here in the UK. On Pride marches in the 80's. We where abused spat at and if you got separated you may well have been physically assaulted. And that was just from the police. in 1985 when the colliery bands and miners turned up it changed everything. We where no longer alone in our fight! Later that year the Labour party enshrined Gay rights into their constitution largely on a block vote from the NUM (National Union of Mineworkers)

Today is the anniversary of the death of Mark Aston. He was the leading light of Gays Support the Miners and now he is remembered with a blue plaque (significant and notable figures in the UK are marked with a blue plaque at the place they lived or worked)

Watch the film with pride and for you young'uns remember it was the sacrifice and fight of my generation that gave us much of the freedoms we enjoyed today!
