Pummel party is a lot of fun. Not all of the mini games are great (read: functional) especially if you add workshop games, but the core mechanics and the official minigames are a blast (pun intended, there are items like rockets and shotguns rather than your normal shells)

But watch out for addons, I recently had a similar switch, not price locked but good intro rates - not any cheaper after $13/mo for some service insurance type shot “so you don’t pay for any service calls”. I would rather pay when its needed, but getting off DSL and not having to switch to Mediacom is worth it

I’ve head about private tackers forever, is it that much better than public? I have never really had an issue with public trackers ,but also never had an invite to a private one

About the same outside the burbs in MN
