Innovation General Discussion / Re: Variant: Sharing is optional
« on: December 06, 2013, 12:52:25 pm »
I'm aware that it's incorrect. I'm proposing it as a variant, where even the ones without "may" are optional.

Pro: It allows players to make more choices while it's not their turn
Con: Might make it harder to counter someone else's strategy (e.g. meld over math)?

What other pros and cons are there? Would you want to play this variant?

It's simpler in 2-player:

- I play Wheel with two Age 1 cards on the board
- Your options:
1) Share to draw two L1 cards, and I draw three L2 cards, or
2) Decline, and I just draw the two L1 cards.

Innovation General Discussion / Variant: Sharing is optional
« on: December 06, 2013, 12:14:25 pm »
So it turns out that my IRL group has been playing Innovation wrong for a while. We thought that the rule went like this:

- Player A has 3 leaves and activates a leaf dogma
- Players B and C each have 3 or more leaves
- Players B and C have the option to decline sharing the effect
- If both players decline, Player A does not get the extra draw action
- If either player shares, Player A does get the extra draw action

Example:
- A plays an action which allows a splay
- B declines to share, assuming that C will also decline, to deny A the draw
- C can either share, to get the splay and give A the draw, or decline, to deny A the draw

Thoughts?

I think that's probably in the top 5 most respected posts on the forum now, almost certainly the top 10.
It's even got more than my post that started this whole mega-thread!

Sorry, I just realized what I did...

...terminal upgrade
...plus you gain a Necropolis, until you use it as a one-off selfish Council Room.

Edit: Also Copper is basically the best 0$ there is, which further invalidates your "point".
Edge case:  Ruined Market on a board with lots of draw and actions, and no other +Buy.
Edge case: 3-piling with the last Curse

This just happened to me:
Oh man, so hard to decide between Wharf/Hamlet and Witch/Hamlet openings.
Is it? I definitely went Witch; I knew I'd be able to start picking up Wharfs soon enough.
But wharf will allow you more Peddlers more quickly.

Don't you hate the feeling of wanting to upvote someone, but at the same time being afraid that your one upvote will cause their respect to skyrocket and leave you in the dust?........

Except it isn't a victory card, so Scout doesn't even pull it out of your deck...
That's the joke...
Ah sorry -- that part of the joke wasn't obvious to me.

Thats the scene in Stargate: Hogwarts when Obi-Wan realizes that Gimli is in fact a Cylon.
Found this while looking for the link in my last comment...



Edit: Slight upgrade to the quoted comment

Maybe I don't get the meme, but the text you have seems out of context with what Picard is doing in that scene.

...is it sad that I recognize the scene instantly?

I agree that the meme is strange (or maybe I just don't know it), but you can't tell me you've never felt that way.

I don't recognize the scene, but I haven't watched TNG in over a decade sadly.
