Caving. The idea of exploring the unknown bowels of Earth, of going where almost nobody ever goes, deeply appeals to me.

Also: rock climbing.

What about you?
 
martial arts/ boxing

i punch my wall every now and then and that's it. really want to learn kickboxing/muay thai/ boxing. i signed up for boxing lessons in september not sure if i will show up.
 
Mountaineering. Climbing Everest one day would be super cool. Would progress slowly though, wouldn't want to be like some of these westerners who just start climbing and endanger the lives of Sherpas just because they want to climb the tallest mountain immediately. The plan would be to summit Mt. Rainer 20 different times through different routes, summit Mt. Mckinley once or twice, summit Cerro Aconcagua and Cho Oyu before the big boy.
Also hunting for big game.
 
All of the hobbies. :feelsautistic: :feelstastyman: :feelsbadman: :feelscry: :feelsrope:
 
Hunting. I would really love to just go out in the woods for days, isolate myself from the world and live off of what I find and kill. I would love to learn how to skin an animal and basically go through the whole process from killing an animal to consuming it.
Bouldering. Whether indoors or outdoors, something about climbing and the challenge it presents always really appealed to me. The physical fitness aspect keeps me from doing it.
More realistic hobbies that I probably will take up is cooking and dog training.
 
Digital drawing. Really want to learn how to draw and find it fun, but just don't know where to start and been putting it off for a long time.

Caving is lots of fun. I did it once before.


But I'd love to skydive, scubadive, and I'd love to get back into kickboxing. Would love to enter a tournament and kick some heads.
 
Diving, caving (I'm actually too scared to do either) and aeromodelism (no patience)
 
-Fishing (I don't have enough patience, or a boat)
-Warhammer/modelism (I don't have a basement to put the stuff and everything related to warhammer is hella expensive kek)
-Hunting (Getting a gun license in Spain is long, boring and expensive)
 
boxing, digital art, producing music. Did the last 2 when I was younger but lost motivation. Also sex tourism
 
I'm not even that great at the hobbies I have now.

One I've been doing for nearly 20 years and while I'm at around the 95th percentile in it, the gap between me and what is considered "good" is at least as wide as between me and an average casual player.

Another I could only do in bursts over the past 10 years and I've made it to top 15 worldwide in it but it takes too much out of me to even maintain my competence at. Getting good is basically out of the question.

Another is a word game where I was champ multiple times but it has since been shut down.

I can't read novels anymore because I do too much reading for work and school.

The rest I am mediocre or average at best.

Too busy to do anything I want to do that is not propelling me to lofty goals. Fml.

Same about considering rock climbing but i'm too fat and lazy for that so i'll stick to walking as per usual.
Digital drawing. Really want to learn how to draw and find it fun, but just don't know where to start and been putting it off for a long time.
I want to try digital drawing as i do non-digital drawing aswell, but the thing is it's impossible to find tablets were i live, there exists no demand for them whatsoever.
 
I would like to go hunting but I live in shitty nyc so it will never happen.
 
I am mediocre at martial arts and playing guitar. I ain't good at anything. Used to be good at drawing but now I don't do it.
 
gymcelling and lowering bodyfat levels to ideal.
 
I want to have a vegetable garden. Right now the only things I have are a couple jalapeno plants.
 
You start on a 5 x 7 grid with 5 letters and 5 adjacent letters available, and your opponent has the same set up on his side of the 7. You conquer territory by using letters that you can see, which are all letters adjacent to your current holdings. Each letter can be only used once and "your" side of the board is generated based on your current ranking (people who have a low ranking get generated letters like A R E S T, people who have a high ranking get generated letters like Y V Z X W, etc.). Usually, two competent players meet at the midpoint of the board after having conquered ~3 rows each to meet at the middle row. When a person plays a word using neutral letters in the middle, they become his. When an opponent plays a word using your letters, they become neutral. So, for example, let's say the board looks like this:

A R E S T <- Opponent starting block
H T U C P <- Opponent second row
L I E M D <- Opponent third row
Y J E L K <- Center row
P O C Q I <- Your third row
R E S L N <- Your second row
K U R M E <- Your starting block

Let's say your opponent went first, so they reach the middle row and they make J E R K Y. This allows them to control the Y J E _ K letters, while L remains neutral. In your turn, you don't have much opportunity to use all of the letters that your opponent used, since Y J E K is a difficult combination to implement. So, instead you may do J E L L Y which makes you neutralize Y J E _ _, take ownership of _ _ _ L _, and _ _ _ _ K remains in their possession. Thus, you are able to "scout" that adjacent to that L, they have E M D in their 3rd row. However, because they made J E R K Y first, they can see that your third row is P O C Q I, and because they retain control of the K, they can in their next turn neutralize your Q I in your third row. So, in their next turn, they would optimally want to neutralize the letters you own in the center and in your third row that they have contact with (L in the center, Q I in your third) and take back the letters that you neutralize (Y J E in the center). However, this is again very difficult to do because Y J E L Q I is practically impossible to string into one word. So, you have to prioritize what you want to do. In this case, the enemy could neutralize L Q I so that they create a buffer zone between their K holding and your available pieces, making it effectively safe for at least a single turn. Or, they could try to reclaim Y J E and neutralize L to reset the center of the stage in their favor. That's where the intricacy of the game comes in.

If I was your opponent in this case, I would probably play Q U I C K L Y in order to regain ownership of the center Y, neutralize your L, and neutralize your Q I. Now, you not longer have an avenue to attack my K and you lose your L holdings in the center row, thus giving me advantage.

This is a very simple walkthrough of the basics but there were other complications involved such as how to handle impassable blocks, using push tactics, the fact that your turns are timed and that there is a buffer timer to play with, etc.

Basically it was one of the greatest games I ever played but it never really took off and the devs were too lazy to make a mobile version and thus it died some 5 years ago.

EDIT: Also, I should note that I may have single-handedly destroyed the game because I was so dominant that no one else had a chance. I lost a tournament only once I hit A rank (and won the remainder of the game devs' money which they promised to the first person to hit A, which they at that time needed to pay for server fees lol). Also I guess one time when the opponent admitted to cheating by using a Scrabble Solver. When I hit A rank and was facing C rank players, I was getting boards like

Y Y Y Z X <- Third row
A U U K Q <- Second row
E B Y Z Q <- Starting row

Shit was brutal.
 
Exercise, I just cant do it.
 
Martial arts,shooting,cooking,travelling,camping
Investing in digital currency as well
 
Piano, guitar, drawing 2d, actually all of them :feelsrope:
 
1. Computer Hacking
2. Hiking
3. Read more books
4. Weight lifting
 
Caving appealed to me just long enough to realize it usually means small areas and crawling around. Fuck that. Isn't like the movies where you are walking in giant places you stand up right in.
 
lol playing some games, I'm too lazy to play FFXV because of how long the initial load takes to finish
 
cricket, yeah pretty typical for a currycel lol. but i genuinely enjoy watching the sport and it can be fun and relaxing to play especially in some quiet park on the weekend.. but jus cba, too lazy rip
 
DJing or making electronic music.
