I've seen that complaint multiple times and had no idea what people were on about: I'm always taken to the top of the page. It turns out you can click on the "new" tag.
Apologies if this has been mentioned already, but whenever I check the new posts to this thread, my browser always scrolls down to the post just below the oldest post I haven't read, effectively skipping a post. I think it only happens in this thread. Does anybody else have this issue?This has been mentioned already. Apparently, everyone else has this issue as well. And it's not just new posts, but any link to a particular post (such as in a quote tag, or on the Show posts page of a user profile) does that if the post in question is the last post on a page.
... After playing my first Horn he sees I can probably pile out Provinces and he says "gg" to me, to which I reply that I'm $1 short of ending the game this turn and I was calculating what I should do about it.
He points out to me that I could have just Counterfeited a Horn and that I should resign the game out of shame.
He was wrong. He should resign the next two games you guys play out of shame.
You had exactly 8 uniques in play, including Horn of Plenty. If you trash the horn for a province, the second time you play it you have only 7 unique cards in play
What's a pathfinder?Scout.
Non sarcastic response: A RPG that uses cards and is supposedly really, really fun.
8/8, let's celebrate!8-8? Guess it's Dallas Cowboys day today...
Happy Birthday Robz!!!
It's an interesting problem of content curation that Facebook has to deal with here. From an individual perspective, I intuit that something I post publicly should be visible to all of my friends by virtue of us having "connected" on Facebook. That link is like a pipeline between us, my content should be shuttled to that other person, and vice versa. Perhaps a better analogy -- Facebook is like a bulletin board where I can post messages that I want all of my friends to see.
The fact that Facebook prevents this message from reaching all of my friends is akin to my posted message being torn down against my will. I posted it for everyone to see, but now you're not letting them see it? How dare you?
From a practical perspective, this is ludicrous. There are so many messages being posted that nobody will be able to see all of them. Some will inevitably be buried. Instead of letting it be an unchecked free-for-all, Facebook tries to bump up items that it thinks will interest you more. There are pros and cons to this, but I have armchaired enough for now.
This is only concerning the personal updates stuff. All the stuff with actual advertising fraud and like-click-farms is a whole other can of worms.
(semi-ninja'd)
The issue I was describing doesn't affect me in any way since I only send posts to close friends, for the reasons you describe. That doesn't mean no one else is being screwed over here. Any small business that relies on exposure to outsiders liking their pages loses lots of traffic. I assume most users like many different pages to follow their posts. They're expected to check the home page of those sites every time a new post might be there?Also, Silverspawn, I'm sorry to hear that. Sometimes people just change. Also, it might not be your fault, since Facebook does weird things. Ever since it was revealed that statuses weren't showing up not because of bad code but because of deliberate code, I don't take anything for granted. Hell, even before that happened, I knew that people were spontaneously being unfriended without notification. This can lead people to thinking the other person snubbed them unless they can talk with that person about it (which is how I learned that it happens).I just read up on this now. So what, about 4/5ths of your followers won't see a given status update unless you pay pet post to promote the message? Da hell is up with that? And now the mobile app moved personal chat to another app that can apparently hijack your phone if it wants?
Ugh, this all makes me want to use Facebook a lot less. I still need it to communicate with groups though.
Why would you be outraged at this? That's like being mad at Gmail for not sending your emails to random people in your address book, even people you didn't send it the email to.
If you want someone in particular to see your Facebook update, you can tag them in it. And if someone visits your profile, they will see all your updates. And even if neither are applicable, if the story is active or interesting enough, Facebook will move it up in your friends' News Feeds.
It would explain why the daily posts of a restautant I follow don't show up every day. Of course. I don't follow much else, so I can check out the page myself.
It appears this is old news, as the article I found on it was dated 2012. Has the situation changed since then?

For the record, I think the messenger app will probably be fine enough in the end.
I think I finally rid myself of a demonic browser extension/virus that's been plaguing me for days. The processes chromehelper.exe, iehelper.exe, and firefoxhelper.exe would reinstantiate themselves as soon as I terminated them, and it wouldn't let me delete them while they were still open. So I had to end them in task manager, then quickly delete them within a second before they reappeared.
I'm 100% sure there's an easier way to do it than that, foremost being I shouldn't have let my computer get to that state to begin with. But it was very satisfying, my browser runs like twice as fast now and it felt pretty badass
 | 10. Swindler A slick 'stache and goatee combo. Really helps to convey his swindling ways. |
 | 9. Beggar A bushy white beard. Not bad at all for a beggar. One Silver goes on top of your deck, but the other must go towards maintaining that jutt. |
 | 8. Mint A good, solid, kempt beard. Looks a lot like mine. |
 | 7. Smithy I'm not such a fan of the styles on these two smiths, but how could I leave them off the list? |
 | 6. Marauder Now we're getting to real facial hair. Marauder's fearsome beard speaks volumes. And speaking of volume, you just know he spoils himself in the salon for big red beard which screams out "I'm gonna ruin your day!" |
 | 5. Goons That middle goon may not have a beard, but that is one hell of a big bushy moustache. |
 | 4. Envoy I know everyone teases Envoy. But despite a mediocre face and having a scroll embedded in his palm, he is staring Catrein right in the eyes with confidence as he poses for this portrait. Where does that confidence come from? Isn't it obvious? And isn't that what facial hair is really about? |
 | 3. Market Square I know what you're thinking. Just a shadow you say? There's no such thing as a bearded lady? Well, I'm not so sure. |
 | 2. Transmute Hands down the fullest, most majestic natural beard in all of Dominion. My hands could get lost in that beard for days, which coincidentally is about how long it takes him to turn my Estates into Gold. |
 | 1. Alchemist Was there ever any doubt? Herbalist has known it for years: Alchemist's beard puts everyone else's to shame. |
 | Best Fan Card. Stache Sorry creepy Pawn Shop dude. This Mario-esque masterpiece is what inspired the entire list. Well, that and JSH's Art Rankings. |
oups, sorry, i keep confusing nomad camp with bandit camp. I've no idea why i do that, but I keep doing it.
it's a worse version of bandit camp. if you draw your whole deck, a bandit camp is a gold equivalent that's guaranteed to be at the bottom of your deck, and also produces +1 Action along the way.
it also seems to have problems handling resigns now. i just played a match against KingZong, and I resigned and it froze, forcing us to DC, then I played a match against another guy and he resigned and the game froze. I waited for like 3 min, then i tabbed out and came back after >1 hour, then it was on the end screen and i won.
Really? because after you left it said you had resienged and I won.
yea and then it's a worse version of nomad camp.QuoteI considered making it worth more than Gold, but I figured that this way it might actually be balanced (minus the "shave" clause, which could probably be abused depending on the game definition of "shave"). It's a $5 Gold with the drawback of being almost guaranteed to miss the reshuffle. Thoughts on that?
as a serious card? boring. even more boring than stash.
I think it may be pretty good for engines as payload. Better than Gold even.
In any engine where you draw your deck each turn, this is much better than gold, even if it cost $6 you would prefer it to gold.
I just discovered this thread (since I normally don't see any posts in this forum)
... lol
Yet there's squire, market square, cultist, hunting grounds, catacombs, fortress...
Sir Vander from Black Market...
Watchtower better be #1. It would be #1 on my list, at least. Chapel is nice too...
Royal Seal could also be at the top.
$5 Villages have a hard time because if you need the +Actions, you can't wait until you're hitting $5 to get them.
Wait, why not, as a general matter? Villages don't do much for you before you have the terminals that they're supposed to support. Wouldn't you ordinarily want to buy a couple of terminal draw or payload cards (both of which might help you get to $5) before investing in villages?
