General Discussion / Re: 2018 FIFA World Cup
« on: July 11, 2018, 05:56:27 pm »So England, having never beaten a team ranked higher than them in this world cup, just went and lost to a team ranked lower than them. Despite this, English people feel gutted and that we should have won and so on.
Frankly I'm more disappointed we didn't lose on penalties, so Croatia could keep their streak going.
Croatia played significantly better throughout the second half and into extra time. I just really want Croatia to beat France now.

Yeah. Germany just couldn't finish. They had their chances, but in the end were just flat

General Discussion / Re: STAR WARS
« on: May 28, 2018, 02:04:07 am »Soooooo who's seen Solo?
It met my expectations. I wasn't blown away by it or anything, but I liked the story and excited about how it fits into Star Wars canon.
I absolutely loved seeing Maul at the end. I could see the next movie leaving Han Solo behind and following up on a Maul story. Perhaps bring Ahsoka into a live-action movie? I would love that. Although probably won't happen because the Ahsoka novel already covers the timeline that the story would have to be set in. But yeah, there is definitely a story to be written about Maul from the time after the Battle of Mandalore until we see Maul again in Rebels.
Also - this could potentially bring in some amazing Darth Vader action dueling Maul? Maul will try to stay under the radar from the Empire given his defeat in his 2v1 fight against Sidius to bring his rule on Mandalore to an end, but I don't see how he will go completely unnoticed. And we need a good lightsaber fight. And it cannot be Obi-Wan (right?). That will absolutely not work given Maul's story-line in Rebels (or would it work?). Although who knows what they will actually do. There are so many directions they can take, but I do think they need to leave Han Solo behind and let him just go work for the Hutts and where we find him in episode IV owing Jabba money.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry

I love the new quests. Excuse me, research. As someone who does not have a raiding group and basically only plays when I take my dog on a walk, I am excited to potentially fill in the holes of my missing legendaries (still need articuno, lugia, suicide, rayquaza, and kyogre). Mewtwo who knows. I don't raid enough to get an EX pass.

I would play this with you. It would have to be streamed with commentary by jsh though. That we can listen to. On a chariot race board. Where we both only buy chariot race the first 5 turns.

Dominion Online at Shuffle iT / Re: future plans
« on: November 12, 2017, 04:25:35 pm »ok ok I'll admit it. I just cross-posted in an obvious attempt to harvest some respect on f.dsDude, 29 upvotes so far just for saying that I asked you to ban Possession. They'll upvote online Dominion, you just have to spin it right.
I remember thinking about respect/effort ratio and how posting memes was the best and organizing the league the worst thing I could do.
I was so wrong, writing your own dominion implementation is far worse.
Yes yes, we're spinning it right here.
Let's make some more posts for people to upvote.
Or do you think people have standards and the posts actually need to contain information?
Definitely not

Dominion General Discussion / Re: Asking for Undo
« on: November 08, 2017, 08:15:14 pm »I am willing to bet money on "automatic undo's for non-information-revealing misplays" never becoming a feature.
If the wager is high enough, I bet Stef would take you up on that.
EDIT: Gosh dang it ninja'd by a post on page 2.
Only if you do 25 posts per page not the optimal 50 posts per page.

Dominion Articles / Re: Generalisations of the Penultimate Province Rule (PPR)
« on: October 25, 2017, 11:17:46 pm »
I think PPR is a great springboard to begin analyzing the state of the game as the end approaches. Basically, PPR is the "basic deck types" of how to play the endgame. In itself it falls short of giving the whole picture of what you should analyze at endgame, but it starts the discussion and piques our interest into examining how to close out a game in a way that gives you the greatest chance of winning.

Go back to some old AI (the person, not the computer) games for some slow games. I can't find the link quickly, but there was that one game that lasted an hour I believe

This thread. Read it from start to finish; it should get you at least 30% caught up on what is going on around here.
That was the thread that got me introduced to the forum

General Discussion / Re: Biweekly, bimonthly, etc.
« on: September 28, 2017, 02:16:09 pm »Yeah, this problem is literally the worst thing that has happened to me. I hope I don't have to deal with it before next Friday.
I agree.
Now I have to question everyone who says something is bimonthly or biweekly?
Avoid ambiguity- say twice a month, every other week etc.
