Dominion General Discussion / Goko rating system is very frustrating

« on: August 20, 2013, 11:14:40 pm »

I just lost back to back games against someone much lower than me who got lucky.  I mean he bought THIEF in one game for crying out loud.  Long story short, how should that cause me to drop 300 points and 80 ranks?  Was isotropic that way too I just never realized it?  How many times would I have to beat this guy to get all those points back?

Game Reports / Haggler/BM vs Haggler/Vineyards

« on: March 08, 2013, 04:34:39 pm »

Vineyards won but after the fact opponent questioned the decision.  I'm interested to hear others thoughts?  Did I get lucky?  Didn't feel like it...

Game Reports / over coming perfect Chapel/Wharf opening

« on: March 05, 2013, 02:04:05 pm »

I was eventually going to slip into Vineyards but I was hoping to build my economy a bit first.  Opponent getting perfect turns 1-4 made me make a move much earlier.  Here's to being able to change strategies at a moments notice -

Game Reports / 5/2 copper buy

« on: February 21, 2013, 04:11:25 pm »

I think this is the first time I ever opened copper.  It felt right.  I ended up cruising to win vs a less experienced opponent but thats besides the point.  Thoughts?

cards in supply: Bank, Council Room, Feast, Harvest, Library, Navigator, Secret Chamber, Spice Merchant, Trader, and Treasury

   — Copper copper everywhere, but not a drop to drin…'s turn 1 —
   Copper copper everywhere, but not a drop to drin… plays 2 Coppers.
   Copper copper everywhere, but not a drop to drin… buys a Copper.
   (Copper copper everywhere, but not a drop to drin… draws: 5 Coppers.)

   — Copper copper everywhere, but not a drop to drin…'s turn 2 —
   Copper copper everywhere, but not a drop to drin… plays 5 Coppers.
   Copper copper everywhere, but not a drop to drin… buys a Council Room.
   (Copper copper everywhere, but not a drop to drin… reshuffles.)
   (Copper copper everywhere, but not a drop to drin… draws: an Estate and 4 Coppers.)

Help! / scratching my head

« on: February 13, 2013, 04:14:25 pm »

Typical BV/Wharf game in which I get smoked.  Opponent only had 4 silvers and 4 coppers and 2 light houses at end of game.  I don't know how this turned out so lopsided:

thoughts?  I didn't bump up my early economy that much, I'll admit that.  But still...

Game Reports / Power of the caravan

« on: January 30, 2013, 08:43:13 pm »

got smoked in this game and i can only attribute it to the caravan train:

I was thinking peddlers from the beginning with extra goons buys.   Tribute would hit a lot of action cards for double goons.  He only had one goons but played it pretty much every turn.

Help! / No offense to my opponent but how the F did I lose?

Recently I've been trying to take more control of the game using better deck/engine control.  This board had no +buy but I built a good Lab engine with Explorer for $$.  Opponent went PIRATE SHIP and somehow won.  Thoughts?

Help! / Sabbed to Death

« on: November 28, 2012, 12:48:12 pm »

I guess I should have chosen golds over Duchies for some of the Provence hits but I dont think it would make much difference.  I ended with 0 cards above 3.

Help! / Not sure what happened here - Council Room > Wharf?

« on: November 09, 2012, 02:57:00 pm »

Not sure how i got crushed so badly here.  I should have opened conspirator instead of bridge.  probably should have picked up more hamlets too.  I usually have a good sense of how and why I lost a game but this one, i dont.
