Summary: <p>It's a packed episode this week, with birthdays, illnesses, and some Nice Thinking. Stephen, Mark, and Ellen discuss how the group might put on a tournament for local gamers, featuring locally-made indie games. How can one create a competition that involves many different games of widely different genres? Hopefully your nice hosts are up to the challenge. Either way, you're in for a treat! Plus, we get to finally hear Stephen's TRUE feelings about <em>Star Trek.</em></p><ul> <li> <a href="https://tv.apple.com/us/show/prehistoric-planet/umc.cmc.4lh4bmztauvkooqz400akxav" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Prehistoric Planet on Apple TV</a> - <a href="/publication/bbc-0" hreflang="en">BBC</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://www.sho.com/the-man-who-fell-to-earth" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The Man Who Fell To Earth</a> - <a href="/publication/showtime" hreflang="en">Showtime</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://www.paramountplus.com/shows/star-trek-strange-new-worlds/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Star Trek: Strange New Worlds</a> - <a href="/publication/paramount" hreflang="en">Paramount</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/your-health/quarantine-isolation.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">COVID 19 Quarantine and Isolation Calculator</a> - <a href="/publication/centers-for-disease-control" hreflang="en">Centers for Disease Control</a> </li> <li> <p>Alternate titles for this episode:</p> <ul> <li>"It finally got me"</li> <li>"Lil' Baby Stephen"</li> </ul> </li> <li><p><a href="https://www.pexels.com/photo/men-playing-computer-games-7915231/">Episode artwork from RODNAE Productions on Pexels</a>.</p></li> </ul> Nice Thinking 0:13:12 <a href="/person/mark-lacroix" hreflang="en">Mark LaCroix</a><a href="/topics/events" hreflang="en">Events</a><a href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/1143550/EleMetals_Death_Metal_Death_Match/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Elemetals: Death Metal Death Match</a> - <a href="/author/wallride" hreflang="en">WALLRIDE</a>, <a href="/publication/steam" hreflang="en">Steam</a><a href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/893900/Astral_Gunners/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Astral Gunners</a> - <a href="/author/sati-bros" hreflang="en">Sati Bros</a>, <a href="/publication/steam" hreflang="en">Steam</a><a href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/876500/HyperDot/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HyperDot</a> - <a href="/taxonomy/term/251" hreflang="en">Charles McGregor</a>, <a href="/publication/steam" hreflang="en">Steam</a><a href="https://gamesdonequick.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Summer Games Done Quick</a><a href="https://combobreaker.org/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Combo Breaker Tournament</a><a href="https://www.evo.gg/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">EVO Tournament</a><a href="https://www.gdcvault.com/play/1021856/Challenges-and-Strategies-for-Hosting" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">"Challenges and Strategies for Hosting Massive Independent eSports Events"</a> - <a href="/author/james-lampkin" hreflang="en">James Lampkin</a>, <a href="/publication/gdc-0" hreflang="en">GDC</a>
