A friend and I booked a US-UK-Singapore round the world ticket in September last year for Aug-Sept this year. ~$4.5k each flying Premium Economy. Business class would have been maybe a little over $6k. About the same time we teed up Vegas accommodation (Paris) for a Monday thru Friday for less...
Last night I played a couple of 4-player games of It's a Wonderful World with the Corruption & Ascension expansion. In the 2nd game I came a very close 3rd (top 3 were only 3 points apart). One more General and my General + Financier multiplier would've gotten me the win.

The draft lottery has absolutely not stopped tanking in the NBA. There have been numerous instances of it over the years. Philly being the most famous probably, with their multi-year 'Process'.
