      Caravan really isn't much more complicated than Poker. Hell Poker is more complicated than Caravan.
      I play a few rounds of Caravan every playthrough, it's good money and if you know the rules you can guarantee yourself a win without much effort at all, you just have to actually use your brain because your Luck has absolutely no effect on the game.
      But having a decent knowledge of how to play Caravan can really help you skip the grind for caps, especially if you buy cards from vendors and tyhis have a more full hand than your opponent.

      The Zombie Walk in Louisville used to be like that. Just a bunch of people dressed as zombies (largest in the country) and stores and bars decorating to get in on the fun. The last time I went, before Covid, it was nothing but crappy mass-produced stores, hardly anyone dressed as a zombie, and a bunch of 'influencers' pushing through to crowd to have their pictures taken with corporate zombie art.

      Wish I had known, it's not far from where I live. And yes I actually went to Goodsprings Elementary school for 1 year when my dad had a crazy idea to live in Sandy Valley (back before they got their own elementary school). Long story short, it was too expensive to live out there with the economy as bad as it was in 1980. We had 3 grades in 1 classroom. We had no mantises in the playground at least.
      edit: now that I post this do I see a youtube video from 8 news now about this event. Sure would have been nice to know about it beforehand. It's just down the road from me in Vegas.
      And for anyone curious about Goodsprings back then, I don't remember much other than the bus ride into town for school. Otherwise I was never there. Sandy Valley is not really represented in game. After that I lived in Spring Valley. Closest place in game that corresponds would be about where Violet and her dogs are.

      Pick up your cross and follow Jesus! The world is quickly headed for destruction, and sooner or later you will have to sit at the judgement seat and give an account for your actions. Belief in messiah alone is not enough to grant you salvation - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36). Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life! - Revelation 3:20.
      Contemplate how the Roman Empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13. Revelation 17 confirms that it is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years going back to Babylon and before, C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate once you start a relationship with God tho.
      Can't get a response from God? Fasting can help increase your perception and prayer can help initiate events. God will ignore you if your prayer does not align with His purpose (James 4:3) or if you are approaching Him when "unclean" (Isaiah 1:15, Isaiah 59:2, Micah 3:4). Stop eating food sacrificed to idols (McDonald's, Wendy's etc) stop glorifying yourself on social media or making other images of yourself (Second Commandment), stop gossiping about other people, stop watching obscene content etc and you should get a response.

    This is one of the most heartwarming things I've ever seen. New Vegas holds a special place in my heart, like many, and it brings a tear to my eye to see what is essentially a real life outpost in the Mojave desert. ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥
    Edit: at the end when everyone was singing along with your karaoke I actually cried. Makes me so happy to see such an everlasting love for this game. October 22nd is my birthday, so you can bet I'll be at the 2023 event

    Being surrounded by a bunch of people who enjoy the same stuff as you, especially something this great, had to be such an amazing time. I'm sad I didn't even hear about it but I'm really glad to hear that this is going to be an every year thing! My husband introduced New Vegas to me and it's phenomenal, we are definitely going to have to try to go one year

    I visited Goodsprings last September while driving from L.A. to Vegas, and it was a nice moment to see the actual place on a sleepy Sunday afternoon. I'm pleasantly surprised by the size of this event. This is more than just cosplay. This embodies the spirt of one of the greatest games ever made. Well done!

    Really happy you, the other attendees and the people of Goodsprings had a great time. Looked like a wonderful event and what an amazing turnout for it as well. Really hope I can make it down there someday but until then this was a great glimpse into how a gaming community can have their cake and eat it too

    Hey! You nailed the spirit of that event! Excellent job. I know it will grow year by year but I hope nothing changes at all. It was perfect. My moment of Wasteland epiphany was when the crowed cheered me on singing "Big Iron" during the Karaoke every. I mean here I was, signing that song ac Chip Monk, to a bunch of NCR, Legion, Powder Gangers and various other wastlanders (see as drunk as me) in THE pioneer saloon in Goodsprings. Once in a lifetime moment and one I will never forget. Thank you so much for sharing, and again, great job!!!

    Thanks also for everything you do and have done to keep Fallout alive and "current." You're truly an inspiration!
