Usually, but I love the optimistic fanfare of the TNG intro, and it has a habit of drawing me in.

I've always heard that until you're master/GM level, it's better just to play it out. Your opponent might blunder too, or accidentally stalemate you. At the very least, it's good practice playing at a disadvantage. I know I've blundered huge leads myself, so who knows what's going to happen?

There's a psychological thing where we always assume that our opponents in games will never mess up, which makes it feel easy to give up the moment you make a mistake.

This is great. I have a new daily game to play. Thanks for sharing!

I swear I learn more about LOTR from comment sections under memes than anywhere else.

Also can't forget gaming companies that have turned many modern games into Skinner-boxes.

Probably just a couple of front closets, but now I'm picturing an unreasonable number of front doors.
