Check out this amazing glider staff build. The designer of this was able to build the collapsible wings with a locking mechanism to hold them out, all in a reasonable and realistically sized staff! That, along with the design put into it in order to bring it into the real world make this something special.

Flameo hotmen, we got a new show for everyone called Over Tea: The Pai Show!
Aba and I thought it'd be super fun and interactive to make some kind of watchable media for the community to enjoy and even participate in, so we collaborated and made the first episode a match against each other. What we'd like to do is review games that people have had and analyze them, or even have them participate by going over their thoughts of their own games! So if you'd want to be on Over Tea: The Pai Show go ahead and contact Aba or me and we'll see what we can do.
As far as the Over Tea goes, go ahead and check out the first episode here:
Vagabond Match
And the channel here:
Over Tea: The Pai Show
I hope you all enjoy!
Hello! Thank you for being here at The Garden Gate. I'm Skud, or Zach, and I created Skud Pai Sho and made it playable online at The Garden Gate, along with other Pai Sho games I have dug up since diving into bringing Pai Sho to the physical world.
I've written about how Skud Pai Sho and The Garden Gate came to be before. Read that at https://skudpaisho.com/site/2018/10/11/w...rden-gate/.
But here's a little more about Skud Pai Sho, The Garden Gate, and me.
Remember that Skud Pai Sho is based on older existing rules. It was definitely a lot of hard work over the course of months and months to get it to where it is, but most of all, I'm a fan like everyone else here.
The name "The Garden Gate" is what I'd name Skud Pai Sho if I had to rename it to remove the "Pai Sho" from the name, but it's also just such a great name for this place and community. I wonder if I should rename it to "Garden Gate Pai Sho". What do you think?
The name "Skud" is a lot like the name of a minor character named "Sud" in Avatar. If you're not sure who that is, try and find him! I used it as the name for Skud Pai Sho when I began writing the fanfiction story I'm working on slowly but surely where there's a Pai Sho-obsessed character named Skud. I then took that as the name for Skud Pai Sho and as my username as well.
Out in the real world I'm a programmer inside a company somewhere, and more importantly a husband and father. It's busy, but I have a blast playing Pai Sho and making it so everyone else can, too!
See you at The Garden Gate,
-Zach
Hi everyone,
Thought I'd try my hand at Vector backgrounds. First go, let me know what you think I plan to have some more coming if you all like it.
Hey everyone,
Does anyone know where I might be able to get some high resolution screen grabs?
Creating and Managing a Tournament at The Garden Gate
Certain members of The Garden Gate community will be Tournament Managers.
A Tournament Manager will be able to create tournaments, approve players who sign up, create matches between tournament players, and more.
There is no required tournament structure. Tournament Managers can use outside tools like tournament management websites to create and manage the tournament if desired as well.
---
Instructions to Tournament Managers
1. Create a thread in the Tournaments forum.
To create a tournament, create a thread on the Tournaments forum. You will need to include the url to your tournament's forum thread when creating the tournament at The Garden Gate.
Use the forum thread to provide full details that players should know so they know what to expect from the tournament. What kind of tournament is this? What games will be played? When will it start? How long will it take? Etc.
Also include any additional rules you wish to include, such as requirements that players need to meet in order to participate, or anything else.
2. Create the tournament at The Garden Gate.
You'll need to provide a name, the tournament forum url, and a short one-line summary of the tournament. Remember that the full details will be at the forum.
Players will be able to sign up to request to participate immediately after the tournament is created. I recommend having a form of secondary confirmation (posting on the forum or Discord, for example) before accepting users into the tournament to be sure players are committed to participating.
3. Create rounds, matches, and oversee the tournament as needed!
The only thing related to tournament structure that is enforced is that the tournament consists of rounds, which consist of matches.
As a tournament manager, you are able to approve players as they sign up, create rounds, and create matches within the rounds.
As the tournament progresses, please also keep the forum updated.

Captured 4 flower tiles with the Orchid and turned the game around

Has anyone noticed that fire bending is the only bending art that does not require its element to be present to bend it?
Knock knock
## Bamboo
- When played surrounding your Blooming Flower Tile (but not surrounding a Growing Flower Tile in a Gate), return each surrounding tile to owner’s hand
- Tiles surrounding Bamboo cannot be captured
## Pond
- Flower Tiles may be Planted on points surrounding a Pond belonging to either player
- (Once Planted, tiles are immediately Blooming)
## Lion Turtle
- Flower tiles surrounding a Lion Turtle form Harmony with all Basic Flower Tiles of either player
- The owner of the Lion Turtle owns the Harmonies that include both players’ tiles
- (Overlap with other Lion Turtle tiles can combine this effect, so Harmonies can potentially belong to both players)
