Damn I accidentally revealed that my wallet has 2 ETH. What I meant was from 2k to 3k

Also what's the probability that the peddler variant that can only play action cards you have no copies of in play is an exact copy of a fan card?

Ugh I have a chess game in two days so I can't go to the casino :'(

Also I play against I think the strongest player in the club and probably the city, so I'll presumably get swamped :(

I lost.

Farming Village: This one can be hard to see. Isn't this card great? Well it's a village, Village is great. It does almost nothing more though; game after game you just treat it like Village. A new card could actually do something.

I still have this memory of a game I played where I was far ahead and my opponent just won by "drawing" a ridiculous amount of cards with Farming Villages, and doing it over and over again. It's one of these memories that ought to be fabricated because if it's accurate then it was such a low probability event that it should probably never have happened across all of my dominion history. Discard 8 dead cards here. Discard 5 dead cards here. Discard 7 dead cards. Discard 2 dead cards. Discard 9 dead cards. Win with a far worse deck. Doesn't sound like a thing that would happen in the real world, but that's what I remember.

You could probably go through all my games to find this. Should only take about three weeks of work.

In the 0.000001% chance that my opponent remembers the game and reads this, please speak out, then we can confirm that we indeed live in a simulation

WAIT HE REMOVED DOCTOR?

:(

That was like one of my favorite cards! ... which I can still play with offline and won't play with online anyway, so I guess it's fine. But still kind of shocking.

It was one of the top most predicted cards to get removed on the f.ds Discord (lower than Fortune Teller, Harvest, Masterpiece and Taxman but barely higher than Tournament). There aren't 8 cards in Guilds and Cornucopia that are more worth removing than Doctor.

Yeah it's sad to see Doctor go. I kind of get the reasoning, and little feels worse than naming Copper and revealing 3 Estates... but still, it was unique and cool.

I'm not sure if I'm supposed to look at the head-to-head polling or the polling including other candidates for Biden vs. Trump. In the first case, it doesn't seem like Trump has that much of a lead anymore, but in the second, it's larger.

Running as a third party leftist candidate and not endorsing Biden at the end is incredibly unethical. I know this will not be shared by non-consequentialist value systems but in this case the stakes are so high, I mean come on

This argument would be easier to make if people didn't commonly exaggerate the importance of elections. But regardless, it's true. I think the stakes are even higher than in 2020 and 2016

And just like that I'm negative! Things certainly turned around.

I think I'll set a bankroll of 1000 and if I lose that I give up. So far it seemed like bad luck to me

It turns out Copilot Designer is about as insane about harpists as Gemini's image generator is about European people.

Ok so we're now slightly negative. I think I'm gonna take a break from poker here and call this a win; I got over the initial nervousness and also had a ridiculous steak of never hitting the flop*, and the results are meh rather than terrible. I can play for at least a moderate win vs stronger opponents with twice the rake, so I know can do here, too. It's just very high variance.

Yesterday one guy called 100€ preflop with 54o and then immediately hit a straight on the Flop, where he managed to go all-in. Very frustrating to sit there and watch that kind of stuff and I just need a break

That hand wasn't against me, it's just annoying not to get the cards to take advantage of this kind of play

*well there was that one time where I got a straight against a better straight, that was hitting the flop pretty well
