Introductions / Any Israeli players around?

« on: July 05, 2012, 03:35:52 am »

Hi,

I'm not a very active member of the community, though I do play on isotropic on-and-off for the past year.

I've been playing Dominion since I was introduced to the game IRL almost two years ago, and had the pleasure of spreading the word to others, getting them hooked as well. Though isotropic is great, I enjoy the game more when playing with friends, discussing strategies and meeting new people.

I was wondering if there are other Israeli players I am unfamiliar with. I know of about twenty give or take, but there must be others out there. Show yourself, and we can play IRL when isotropic goes down forever.

Dominion Isotropic / Will the code be opened when isotropic retires?

Not sure if this is already the plan, but if it's possible I - and lots of others here, I assume - would really appreciate it.
I suppose RGG might have an issue with it, but it's worth a try.

Help! / Was it wise to open Masquerade-Potion?

I didn't really have a solid strategy. At first I though I'd buy lots of Alchemists and add a Masquerade, but at turn 3, not having enough money for an Alchemist, went for a Chapel which was probably a wise choice. I only had one $3p hand which caused me to give up on Alchemists after the first one.

I didn't have much use for the Masquerade, using it only twice to trash two estates and passing junk to my opponent which might have stalled him a bit.

I trashed the Masquerade on turn 9, and by turn 11 I got rid of all my estates and coppers, leaving my deck with an Alchemist, 2 Cartographers, 2 Golds, a Silver, a Potion and a Chapel. I used the Cartographers to sift through my decks, moving away the Provinces and Chapel so that every turn I'll have $8p for buying a Province and keeping my Alchemist. I ended up buying 6 Provinces from turn 11 to 16, winning the game.

Was the Masquerade necessary? Should I have opened Silver-Potion? Chapel-Potion? Silver-Chapel and ignore Alchemist?
