Congrats to Personman for advancing from the playoff.  I was soundly outplayed all three games, all of which Personman won from the second seat.  So kudos to him, he definitely deserved it!

Here's the results from the pod I was in: HiWay2Hello, MalcolmMasher, Stringer Bell, and Personman.  Interestingly, one of the games had a double tie --a two-way tie for first, and a two-way tie for third!  Not sure how that scores, but here's the results.

#2: HiWay2Hello, 28 points
#3: MalcolmMasher, 25 points
#4: Stringer Bell, 15 points

Game 2: http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201206/24/game-20120624-113844-69c0b4b4.html

#1: (tie) MalcolmMasher, 28 points and 16 turns, and HiWay2Hello, 28 points and 16 turns

Question:

If only three people in a qualifying pod show up, how is seating order determined for the fourth game?

Finally, how do you determine who did best? Is it just most wins? Surely you don't want total VP? Is it a 2/1/0 for 1st/2nd/3rd? Or should winning mean more than that?

Somewhere along the way, there ought to be a tiebreaker that takes into account seating position, assuming this can't be fully equalized.  For example, if Player A wins 3 out 5, but his seat order was 1/2/1/2/1, all else equal he should be ranked lower than Player B who has an identical record but whose seat order was 2/3/2/3/2.  Perhaps something like "tiebreak" points could be given, with 3 points for every game in third seat, 2 points for every game in second seat, and 1 point for every game in first seat.

That's a fair point, but sometimes the reordering is unavoidable.  For example, you can't control whether your opponent buys oracle, and his oracles become a tad stronger if you can't reorder the cards you're forced to put back.  Similarly, getting swindled into a reordering card is more damaging for you than if you could use the card's full ability.

Dominion Isotropic / Isotropic on iPad Problem

« on: April 25, 2012, 05:58:41 pm »

I like to use my iPad to play on isotropic.  But I've found that the iPad's Safari browser cannot handle one part of the isotropic interface: dragging cards to new positions when you are trying to reorder cards.  This mainly comes up with Stash, Apothecary, and Cartographer, though there are a few other cards/situations where this can arise as well.  The result is that because I cannot drag and drop, I am stuck with whatever the original/default ordering was.

Am I just missing something about using the iPad for web browsing?  Or is the only solution to just avoid playing games with these cards while I'm on the iPad?
