Title: My 100th video
Post by: werothegreat on February 16, 2013, 08:18:40 pm
Over the past couple months I've played and recorded 99 pro games on Goko.  Given the happenstance of our decimal counting system, I'd like to do something moderately special for video #100.  Any ideas?  People I should play?  Who do you want to see kick my ass at Dominion on YouTube?

Donald X.

If you can get Donald X. to play you that would be pretty sweet.

Donald for certain.

I dunno, I somehow feel like it would be presumptuous to ask.  It's not like we've corresponded.

There is the interview with Donald X topic... you could ask?

if AdamH could do it, so can you.


Now, get yourself together man! Prepare for him to go for first turn Curse, just to screw with you, and win anyways.

I agree with this. If him playing a game with AdamH is going to lead to mobs of people asking to play games with him, I think he's going to regret doing it in the first place. I don't want to put words in his mouth; that's just my guess.

I asked him to play a game with me fully expecting to be told no, mostly because everybody would then want to play him. It just so happened that he was around at a time where I could drop what I was doing and get on iso to play him at his convenience. The read I got from him was that he plays on Goko at night frequently and he certainly wouldn't mind games with anyone at that point, whether scheduled or not. Perhaps you can just ask when he'll be on and meet him there? I doubt he would mind playing everyone in the world on F.DS as long as it didn't cost him any extra time out of his life. It could only be a good thing to have his army of raving fanboys putting up videos gushing about how awesome Donald X. and his games are, right?

I'd say you have absolutely nothing to lose by shooting him a PM and asking when he'll be on next.

If the kingdom has Swindler in it, though, watch out. He's a BEAST with that card! Buy as many Crossroads as you want, you'll never see one in your hand!

" It could only be a good thing to have his army of raving fanboys putting up videos gushing about how awesome Donald X. and his games are, right? "

I was going to give you some respect for this post just now, then I realized that would be contradicting how I feel about this sentence. (which made me laugh out loud)

I log on as Donald P sometimes, will I do? Hehe

Nope. If you were Donald X. II that might do... but you're not.

Well, Ozle, we could do a series.  If you're interested in helping pop my triple digit cherry, let me know here.

That is, say if you want to play a recorded game with me.

I'll play some with you. Hey, that reminds me...

I think I'll start doing this tonight after dinner.  You game, AdamH?

This is working out well... if you can't play with Donald X., you can at least play with someone who's played with Donald X. ;D

And so began the first documentation of the Donald X. number, where Donald X. has a DX number of 0 and everyone else has a DX number of k + 1, where k is the smallest DX number of a person he/she has played Dominion with.

My first thought was also the Erdos number. My DX number is 2 then!  8)

You seriously thought of Erdos number before Bacon number?

I hadn't even thought of Bacon number until you mentioned it here.

I'm not even any good at mathematics - I'm just that nerdy.

Hey.... watching the vids now... you couldn't have called me a funny 'that pointy dude' or a slightly confused 'guy with a weird name' but went for boring and lame 'carrots and underscores' I will never understand you wero... never. (Also, your vod playlist is so out of order.... -_-')

If you didn't want the 102 vod, don't read the below!

I certainly did, but then I'm a vegan mathematician, so I suppose I'm biased.

Yeah, as a fellow vegan I tend not to follow things to do with bacon. not even Kevin Bacon...
