Dominion General Discussion / Re: Playing to lose?
« on: May 11, 2018, 07:54:26 pm »
Maybe the player realized they weren't winning, wasn't enjoying that set of cards that much and just wanted to move onto the next kingdom.
I love 3 player Dominion. Fun is king unless there is something at stake and even then it might still be king.

Rules Questions / Re: Sequence of effects with Cursed Village, Locusts, and Tracker
« on: March 06, 2018, 06:05:05 pm »
The general rule is that if two or more things are happening at the same time, you get to pick what order they go in.
It's possible that these things aren't happening at exactly the same time so the above rule wouldn't apply.

Other Games / Re: Breath of the Wild
« on: February 22, 2018, 11:14:01 pm »
I previously finished the game 100% on regular mode.
I just finished the game 100% on Master Mode including all the DLC 1 and 2 including getting and upgrading all available armor. I'm not sure if I'm proud of that accomplishment or not given the number of hours I spent on the game, which I obviously really enjoy. I did not, however, get all the chests.
Master Mode was at times so not fun that I nearly quit especially at the beginning. Never enough weapons, money, supplies and sometimes hardly any way to get them. I didn't particularly enjoy trying to avoid every fight possible. Beginning Trial of the Sword was brutally difficult (room 10 in particular).
My wife and kids think I am nuts but there it is.

« on: January 30, 2018, 09:53:26 pm »When your spouse thinks that you only use the phrase "ill-gotten gains" because it's the name of a Dominion card.
And when your spouse is correct that you only use the phrase because it's a Dominion card.

Rules Questions / Re: Royal Carriage and Crown
« on: January 05, 2018, 05:19:46 pm »
A related question:
Since Crown is an Action-Treasure card, can Royal Carriage still be called after playing Crown in the buy phase?
Crown doesn't stop having Action be part of its type just because it's the Buy phase.

« on: December 07, 2017, 12:24:29 pm »One of these days, I'm gonna write a browser extension just to make sure I don't have to see these jokes anymore. There was a time they were not funny anymore, and a time they were tedious. By now I cringe so hard every time I see them that it gives me almost physical pain.
No amount of 'beating a dead horse to death' has ever stopped this forum from continuing with awful jokes. That why I was so surprised I hadn't seen any. If you write such an extension, I will gladly use it.

« on: December 06, 2017, 07:53:19 pm »Mine shipped as well. I have all of Dominion sorted alphabetically, and I planned ahead by making a spot for it when I reorganized for Nocturne.
I'm surprised no one has put the Mine quips in yet.

If you ordered Prosperity hoping to get Mine, you will be sadly disappointed.

I ordered from Amazon and their website says it will be delivered today by 8 PM. I live in the northwest where Amazon is but the product, strangely enough, shipped out of Michigan and just left Illinois this morning according to UPS. I'm having a hard time believing it will be delivered today by 8 PM.

Highway to Hell
We built this City
Duke of Earl
Hall of Fame (you could be a Champion)
I need a Hero
Citizen Soldier
I am the Warrior
Love Potion #9
Built this Fortress
Battlefield
Doctor, Doctor, Give me the news
Wishing Well
I already know I didn't get all the titles correct.
I apologize to anyone who now will have a song stuck in their head where they didn't have one before.

« on: August 31, 2017, 08:59:19 pm »
So many of these conventions are dependent on cultural differences and it's impossible to know who you are playing online and so impossible to interpret their comments.
As with anything on the internet, you just have to put on your thick skin and give the other person the benefit of the doubt if they aren't being explicitly rude.

It's just a convention for being polite, not unlike asking people how they are doing when most of the time no one listens for the response.

Can one of the +Tokens be put on the Castles pile when one of the Action Castles is on top? For example Small Castle.

Meanwhile I still have nothing from the Kickstarter. Why is Queen so bad at this?
It looks like Tuesday. Perhaps your Kickstarter version will come Monday. Queen seems pretty inept.
