Puzzles and Challenges / The Challenge #1 Most Coins in a Turn

« on: March 01, 2022, 08:01:00 pm »

There just aren't many puzzles or challenges going on or getting started right now, so I thought it would be fun to do a slower challenge, but on focused on puzzles.

This challenge would last about 2 weeks each, and there would be a new topic for each challenge so that discussion could be continued. Topics for the challenge would basically include anything that is not going on in the current two challenges.

Should we do it?

Either way, this challenge is to make a board in which the highest amount of coins in one turn is possible, but they are still limited (so no coffers). You do not have to post your solution, just how many coins you got, until the contest ends, on March 14th. Have fun!

More Specific Rules

The solution can assume perfect shuffle luck, but should be possible on Dominion Online (given an infinite amount of tries). It can have any number of buildup-turns, just like the How High Can You Go puzzle. The board cannot go infinite.

Variants and Fan Cards / Fan Card Mechanics Week 27: Tokens and Outcomes

« on: January 31, 2022, 07:24:01 pm »

Hello everyone,

This week’s contest is about things that happen when you have a certain amount of tokens, outcomes. Outcomes are similar to events, except they are resolved by a card being played, and not by something being bought. When outcomes are resolved, they are always left where they are, and are resolved similar to actions. Specifically, this week’s challenge is to make a card, and a corresponding outcome. The actions that give outcomes will also give a token or something else to keep track of progress toward the outcome, which may be obtained multiple times.

Play is the keyword that resolves an outcome. Here is an example of an Action Outcome pair:



The custom color for Outcomes is 0.7, 1.25, 1.35.

Cards will be judged based on:

• How much I like the card personally
• How balanced it is
• How it stands up to official cards
• How well it uses the mechanic
• And how much it keeps wordiness and complexity down

Submissions will be due midnight, February 6th, forum time.

Edit:

The new contest is to instead make a card that uses tokens to keep track of something, using them for a different reason than originally intended. You can use the old contest and entries made before this edit will still be accepted.
