What is your default move when pc gets messy

My current rule is simple: if it takes less than 3 minutes to prepare, I am much more likely to keep doing it.

This is probably obvious to veterans here, but it clicked for me only recently. indie got easier when I stopped treating every attempt like a final exam.

Surprised more people aren't choosing Backlog clearing. It seems like the practical answer. The practical part is easy to underestimate.

Backlog clearing got my vote. The other choices are good, but this one fits my week. The late summer version is even more interesting.

Wonderful detail. It makes the whole thing feel real. This is more useful on a tired late summer than on a perfect day.

Can you share what you tried before this? Honestly, the simplest version wins for me.

I picked Co-op night, mostly because it feels easiest to live with. I would test it for 4 days before deciding.
