I beat pro MtG player Kevin Jones in a best of 3 match.
At what?

Duck, duck, hand grenade.
I was gonna guess tennis.

No, tennis would be best of 5.

Unless they are women.
Or unless it isn't a Grand Slam tournament. Only the 4 Grand Slams (Australian, French, Wimbledon, US) play 5 sets.

I just ran 15 kilometers! Whee, I'm pretty sure it was the first time I've done more than 10. I went super slow (1.39 for the 15km), but happy all the same! I think this was my 3rd time going running this year, so I was legitimately worried it might get super hard.

Background information that's somewhat relevant for this board:
We've started spicing our board game nights up by adding penalties to the loser(s) of the games. Having to run 15 kilometers was one of the punishments I've lost. We try to make the punishments things you wouldn't usually do, but that are still generally good for you, such as doing sports, having to go to yoga, having to learn to cook a new dish, something like that. We usually come up with several, and the 2nd place gets to pick one he hates doing the least, 3rd place picks next and so on until the last place is just left with whatever is in there. It's so so much fun.

Galloping uses up all of your energy really quickly...  I would rather just crawl or trot, or something.

Nice work on the run!  That is a good distance for sure.  To think that some people would find motivation to lose at your game sessions with the running.  ;)

But you have no arms or legs.

I've been a lot less active here at F.DS lately for mostly personal reasons involving grad school challenges and a very lengthy and stressful job search.  I am happy to say that I just got offered a job as a scientist at a local start-up company involved in the development of Li-ion battery anode materials.  As the lone applicant with a master's degree I was able to distinguish myself from the other 100 Ph.D applicants and get offered a job after only a single phone interview and followup email!

Can you get engaged if you can't actually marry? Because the answer to this is the same answer as the one to the question whether i got engaged yesterday. I'm still overwhelmed, happy, anxious and maybe a bit sad, because the inherent caveat reminds me of where i stand in Germany. Well, we hope for change to come soon. There's a second-class institution for us here, but let's just say that we're not that desperate.

Are there legal benefits to getting married in Germany (like tax breaks)? Congrats by the way!

Yes, there are. There isn't really a difference between actual marriage and the alternative i was talking about, though, so from a tax point of view, it would be the same. In fact, most of the differences don't really apply to me (adoption isn't something i think about), so it's mostly the "seperate but equal" thing that makes me feel i don't want it.

Either way, thank you very much :)

Three Magic The Gathering:Origins live drafts won in a row. Each draft featured a Jace which I took when rare picking after the draft.

I've been thinking about what I could possibly have to brag about and then I remembered that last year I succeeded in listing all 151 gen 1 pokémon with nothing but pen and paper after not having played for oh, who knows how long. Although it did take until the next morning to get Lickitung and Porygon .
