Even if the format might look a bit weird, I think it's super cool that something like that is going on.

Dominion: Nocturne Previews / Re: Bonus Preview #3: Fool
« on: October 25, 2017, 02:03:06 pm »
Fool is a close contender for the best art in the game.
Especially if you look at him on one of those turns where you are already Lost in the Woods and he just sits in your hand and smiles back at you.

Dominion League / Season 24 - Announcing Matches/Streams
« on: October 14, 2017, 04:57:32 pm »
Announcing streams:
Announce your season 24 league match live streams in this thread.
If you don't want to miss any, use the notify button on the top right.
(also a good plan for your own scheduling thread)
Per streamed match, please post at most twice in this thread: Once to announce a couple of days in advance, and once to announce you go live right now.
If you want to discuss streams that have already finished, use the game reports thread.
When announcing, please (also) include UTC times - or you could work with the [time] tag as being described here. Keep in mind that people from around the world frequent the forums and they might not now what their offset to Pacific, CET, or Ruritania time is.
Providing a link in your announcement or signature really helps as well.
If you're also interested in non-league streams, enable notifications in this thread as well.
Announcing Matches:
If you don't want to stream but want to give others the opportunity to spectate your match, you can announce your match here, too.

Dominion General Discussion / Re: Dominion Terms: What Should We Call Things?
« on: October 10, 2017, 01:37:24 pm »
I assume the main argument against using the term "village" is ambiguity between this term and the Village card.
I suggest we should increase the frustration and call all the villages "walled villages".

« on: September 26, 2017, 07:34:42 pm »
Sorry, but I can't really help you here, just don't have any numbers. Most games were definitely with non-subscribers.
And opponents' levels were more or less matched with my alt level (30-ish, 40-ish).

Dominion Videos and Streams / Re: How to Base Dominion
« on: September 26, 2017, 06:41:09 pm »
Thanks for your feedback, JW!
I ditched some games, mostly because they were getting repetitive - not because they were money.
So base-only big money games are pretty rare nowadays it looks like.
Well, if I am doing something like that i know whom I'll be writing first
I'm curious if you select the games that make it into the video series.

First, find another top 100-level player and play a few Base only games so that people can see some of the more complex strategic considerations, particularly in games where both players go for action-heavy strategies. Your league videos show these well but will have a lot of cards that newer players won't know. For example, in this series you typically are the one piling out with a points lead, and you're never really worried that your opponent will do the same to you. Happy to fill in after I'm not participating in the league tournament if the timing works out.

Cool idea, meaybe if you consider doing it with a video you can run through a game or two from someone's tournament match.

I've done some mental gymnastics, and came to understanding, Duchess is pretty thematic.
It is not a coincidence she is called after a Duchy (she probably lives there!).

Dominion General Discussion / Heralds are not so hot as we thought?
« on: September 14, 2017, 12:38:30 pm »
I would like to share an obsevation/provoke discussion.
After Guilds came out everybody became a Herald at heart. Community opinion on Heralds was pretty high, and stays so.
Which is I think is not exactly correct anymore.
In a lot of games recently I tend to skip/(be passive about) Heralds when any kind of other option is available.
This comes from the fact that latest expansions added a lot of ways to be in a precise control of your deck, and Heralds more frequently than not don't fit into the concept.
Obviously sometimes you just go for them because the exact order in which you play your actions doesn't matter all that much (no remodellers, no gainers, etc), and well, with a good action density they are Lost Cities most of the time.
Also, obviously a lot of combos remain (Apo, Cartographer, Minstrel, Secret Passage etc) where they are still super amazing.
Anyway, if in the past I was glad to have Heralds sleeping all over my bed, now they must be satisfied with a much more modest place on the rug.

Turns out in games with Treasure Maps on the board the person who gets more Maps wins!
