Game Reports / Re: Maybe the longest game I've played...
« on: April 03, 2015, 10:05:44 am »
So I have a lot of things to say about this game.
First of all, like theblankman said we both played really badly (we bought twice copper after turn 10 because we didn't even have enough for a silver...) and particularly me, taking rats turn 1 was just silly because it is not really a thrasher, it just turn your estate/copper into rats and that's why my deck become really thin and full of rats.
In fact I think the best strategy was too rush the hamlet and then build a rats/bishop strategy with some band of misfits (I really think Band of misfits was way stronger than mystic on this set cause it could be bishop, envoy or even rats) and without any money because you can buy copper with the +Buy from hamlets and turn this copper into rats for free. This strategy is, I think, really hard to make cause you need to trash most rats every turn but not falling into the rats trap (what I did at the beginning when half my deck was rats) and for that you need to think on every cart you play and to know exactly how much copper you need to buy every turn.
So that's why I think the 2/5 start there was the best because you can easily win the hamlet rush but I think the start smugglers/silver could be not that bad.
Then you just need some envoy/bishop/rats (or band of misfits who can be all of them) and you can easily trash 3 rats every turn with bishop (if you have at least 5 hamlets...).
Finally I would really like to play again on this set, to really see what the best strategy is, cause I think I failed pretty badly this game...

You are right Monsieur X, I told him that we should "normally" change the beginner but he told me that he didn't really care, that's why we did it randomly every time and I get lucky to get first player every time... (I think he didn't know how to create a non ranked game with all card so we just did ranked games...)

I won against HarryPeteur in 3 games.
Here are the logs :

We both did a embassy/fv engine but I did it earlier and won the fv split which won me the game i think.

A game with tournament, I thought the game was already lost when he got 2 province and me 0 but he get unlucky and I succeeded getting back into the game with my forge.

I tried to play remodel with shettler which didn't worked at all... Thanks to that he builded a deck much better than mine but with high lucky draw I won the game.

I won 3-1 against Qmech with I think 2 really interesting game.
The first one was a classic familiar game, you miss your potion, you lost! So I won this only by luck...
The second one was interesting, there are tunnel + embassy one of the strongest combo of the game but really boring too...
Qmech went for it when I went for a engine based on menagerie + outpost (outpost is still totally underrated I think...), I think my strategy was way more powerful (menagerie with horse trader + embassy for discard works really well).
The third one was not as much stupid as first one but not that much interesting neither (no + action and no throne room.. ^^), we both went for a grand-market + warehouse strategy but he did it way better than me and finally got the game...
The last one was really the game that I preferred. Black market is one of my favorite card, I think I always buy at least one of them every game, moreover when watchtower is on the board.
I think I got pretty unlucky at the beginning (I have got my blackmarkets together twice early) so I thought that the game was already lost... but at the end, Qmech get no luck at all (he got 3 times 6 and 2 times 7 in the last 5 turn...) which allows me to get the victory.

Game Reports / A pretty funny game using a non commun strategy!
« on: December 22, 2013, 09:17:46 pm »
Hi everyone,

I don't really know why I wonder me today : "long time that I didn't play dominion, I miss this game so much but isotropic is down... Ok, let s try the new website, it s maybe not that bad! :p"

I was a bit rusted but pretty fast I was back in the game and I remembered why i liked this game so much!
But even if all the game that I did was really funny no one was so intensive than this one! :
http://dom.retrobox.eu/?/20131222/log.514d198de4b00e514a721cbb.1387763713638.txt

I think that my strategy was really not the best,  he could have won by trashing province with apprentice for example but he was leading so much that I think he was thinking : " why this guy is still buying action, just end this game, you lost already! ^^"

Anyway after almost 30 min of solo game (he was not even playing, just waiting the end of my turn to press end turn... sorry for my slowness Evan Clark but I really didn't wanted to make any mistakes :( ), I succeded to win by 1 point...
I put this log only cause I think the strategy of 5 bureaucrat is really not usual (I did I think 4000 games and I did it only this time...) and because I wanted to say I am back... care Stef, I will try as hard as possible to get back the first place! ^^

So, someone send me a mail 3 days ago about this world championship but I come just to look at it...
So the deadline is already done but it is still possible to join in? Really long time that I didn't play but I would really enjoy it I think.
So I think that I got a Goko account named Marin but I have never play with...
By the way, if ever I could participate, it will be with the french team if I can't it's not really a problem.
Anyway good luck everyone and I hope France will win!  :)

2012 / Re: Witch Division: Bracket and Results
« on: December 20, 2012, 07:35:05 am »
Yes I admit , I played really badly the game with crossroad and great hall... but I think it was the only one where they was something a bit like a engine possible , all the other game was so boring  and I was even seek of playing . I think that for the last game I checked if some village was here, no village so go BM again... but yes it was a huge mistake!

I would have liked to stop dominion on a win of the tournament! ^^ but I was so far of the win thanks to LordHedgie! :p
This tournament is really great but they are just one thing that I don't really like... Why the tournament is without veto? I think that veto mode make the game much more interesting (you can avoid the card that destroy the game like Gouvernor...) and I really think that I would have been better with veto! ^^

Ok so, like I said, I will stop playing dominion (at least for a while...) so I want to say thank you to every one of this forum, I really enjoyed this year full of dominion! :p
Keep playing! ^^

I won against Lekkit 3-2 (the beginner always won... It's really the only thing that I dislike in dominion : the first player have a too big advantage...)
Here are the logs :

http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201207/22/game-20120722-131511-de728e9f.html  Marin  1 - 0  Lekkit

A fishing village wharf game, even if the game got a lot of engine possibility (city, festival , margrave , even scrying pool ...) none of them was good enough to beat fishing/wharf.
I got 6 Wharfs, so I won the game...

http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201207/22/game-20120722-132230-3f0ad7d7.html   Marin 1 - 1 Lekkit

I tried to make engine with Mining and Smithy (I skiped almost always silver and I didn't buy gold in all the game)  but without buy and the fact that he got 2 milicia soon make that hard to built... and finally he got it.

http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201207/22/game-20120722-132927-a5c9aeb2.html   Marin 2 - 1 Lekkit

The first time that we got 6, I bought a horn and he have take a gold which was a huge mistake and I think it gave me the game...

http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201207/22/game-20120722-133756-4fbcf3f2.html   Marin 2 - 2 Lekkit

Worker village and peddler was here ...  (and moreover salvager and apprentice was here to trash them...) but I don't know why, I didnt see peddler at the beginning,
 (I didn't understood why he opened Worker village and I was thinking that he want buy for gardens :p ) so he take mass Worker with some haven to have 4 actions in one turn.
He succeed to get 7 peddlers which was impossible to overcome (I tried mass rabble but apprentice and salvager with peddler are a bit too strong. ^^)

http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201207/22/game-20120722-134533-57014d96.html   Marin 3 - 2 Lekkit

I opened develop, he didn't, and yes develop can be a must-buy without a cost-7 card! I really think develop is underrated, it's so nice to open with!
If you got it with estate, you got silver on top (so finally you have the same result that the one who open silver. But you got a develop and he got one more estate!)
If you got it with moneylander (in this game), you take village/witch on top and that is crazy!
And moreover, it was the only way to trash estates and curses.
I really don't understand how develop can be behind chancellor!

Finally I want say that it was funny games and that I have really appreciate to play with Lekkit!

P.S.:In fact I prefer lose because you don't need to put comment! :p

I am agree with you for the 2 first games, engine was possible (I use it game 2, and game 1 I just screwed up, I try to rush province but with scrying pool engine was really the best to do...) but where do you see engine potential in game 4 or 5?
Game 4: Alchemist , throne room and goons ... It call me for engine and I try it (buy remodel first for trash and then buy potion...) but they are not real trasher in it and IGG is here, so he just go for mass IGG and engine was not possible at all... (I really thought that with mass IGG he could not loose the game but goons fool's gold is really nice...).
And game 5: They are again fool's gold and moreover with Horse trader (or Woodcutter) so engine was really not possible (moreover the only +action cards was Inn which is not the best card to give action and the only drawer was Stables which is bad alone because if you buy too much of Stables, you don't succeed  to got them with money...)
Finally 2 games on the 5 got engine potential and it is not so bad but like the first game I didn't go for it, it was as if it was only one game on the 5 and that's why I said:
"11:45 Marin: and again a boring set
11:45 Marin: no engine possible.... :("

WOW!
Don't know that you take it so harsh!!
Sorry, I perfectly knew that you have not to answer!(and that you had right to not answer!)
I was just thinking, and I didn't know really what to do...
I was just trying to make a joke (I said "try", I see that it was really not a "good" joke!).
Trust me, I asked so many times because I was thinking and was a bit frustrated and not because I was waiting for a answer!
And yes again  I am sorry, next time i will learn to shut up...

I swear that that will not happen again!
I hope you will have fun in this tournament nevertheless my huge mistake...
