« on: July 12, 2016, 10:44:05 am »

Eevee and iguaniguana are the spymasters. Please try to have each sides turn take 24 hours max. After 24 hours will end your turn and give it to the other team. No need for team QT's, just talk here like you would in the actual game.

Blue goes first

ROCK	IVORY	WALL	HEAD	PISTOL
BOX	LAWYER	CROSS	BRIDGE	PLOT
BUCK	UNICORN	SPINE	SHIP	VACUUM
BERLIN	MOSCOW	RACKET	LITTER	WAR
LION	TAIL	CHINA	PORT	STAFF

Hey I've also got a question, does the winner from all the reward challenges just decide who goes to exile from now on? Because after all since there's no energy anymore so there's no food.

Yup. I'll try to make the rewards faster though.  I just wanted to do codenames again because it's fun and it wasn't really played last time

We're going vote out a player who hasn't been as active and is slowing the game down because we're committed to the game and want to see it through to the end.

There isn't really anything else to say.

So you're voting out ahoppy?

+1




Aright guys, some changes are coming this game. I'm going to try and speed this whole thing up, so deadlines will be firmer, challenges in general shorter, and after the next immunity challenge the energy mechanic is going away entirely.  In fact, I'm not updating the energy total anymore.  What you have is what you get. It's just too much of a hassle.  All your energy will be used in the next immunity challenge.

On with the reward challenge:

Codenames: revisited

Same rules as before.  You'll randomly be split into teams and you'll need to pick someone (or the first volunteer) to be the clue-giver.  Please have this person picked by tomorrow night.  As soon as someone from each team has volunteered I'll post the board and start the challenge.  Please try to have 1 clue and 1 guess every 24 hours.  Winning team decides who goes to exile. 

Here are the teams:
hydrad
iguanaiguana
teamlyle
eevee
watno
gkrieg
awaclus

Real sorry guys.  Life.

Eevee wins immunity!

and since you've had plenty of time to talk anyways, let's just jump right into it.  I'll get to energy sometime, but frankly, I'm really busy for the next few weekends and now it's summer, weekdays aren't great.

Eevee:  How does it feel to be sitting here tonight knowing that you've made it to the final 7?
How did you guys feel the auction went? Anyone bummed by the results?
gkrieg, mcmcsalot, Watno, any of you feel particularly vulnerable tonight since your former tribe still doesn't have the numbers?
Everyone: are the old tribe alliances still a consideration at all?  The last vote seems to show that it isn't?
Any concern for an immunity idol?
Anyone willing to say they feel safe? Vulnerable?

TC ends Tuesday (hopefully)

Apologies for the delay. Life has been crazy and not getting simpler. I'm out backpacking over the long weekend and then moving next weekend (and haven't packed yet). So, I'll introduce the challenge and I'll check back in when I'm free. You guys can run it.

It's everyone's favorite game: Dominion.
Here's the bracket
http://challonge.com/5rv3syua

Single elimination, you play best of 5, alternating who goes first starting with the lower seed (higher number). They were chosen randomly. If you spent energy, you compare the amount of energy spent by you and your opponent and for every 10 you spent more than your opponent, you go first that many games in a row.
Ex: player a spent 20 more than player b, so they go first in the first 2 games of the match and then player b goes and it alternates from there. If you tie, you'll tack on a game to the end of your series and it's still first to 3 wins.

Eevee's bonus: he starts each match with one win

Energy spent:
Gkrieg - 50
Iguanaigiana - 20
Watno - 50

gkrieg wins mysterious item number 3 for all of his money!

You have won the ability to choose who goes to exile! Pick whoever you want.
This also marks the end of the challenge!
Anyone who didn't win any items, you go back to camp pretty bummed out and lose 5 morale

I still need to update energy and such which I will do tomorrow along with treemail. Thanks for your patience

Isn't this bid too late?

yes

Therefore, Eevee wins the mystery item for 900 AHPB!

When I lift the cover, you see a small scroll on the plate, tightly rolled and tied with a red ribbon in the middle.

This is an advantage in the upcoming immunity challenge! Open it in private after the challenge Eevee!

Next item: what? Another surprise? So be it.

iguaniguana wins letters from home for 600 AHPB!

Iguaniguana rushes forward, scrambling to give me the money, not careful about how much he's  handing over and snatches his letters from my hands. He peels them open one by one, reading the contents, not caring that he's bawling on national TV.

You morale is full and now your resting morale is at +20 as long as you have the letters. So your morale is at 70.

Next item: let's keep this guy covered again.

Iguaniguana: you never said if you're eating the brains or making someone else eat them

Tournaments and Events / 3P tournament. Cincinnati, OH, Sat. Jul. 9, 2016, 1PM. Now with Empires!

« on: May 17, 2016, 08:01:00 am »

The next Cincinnati tournament now has a date, and the winner can qualify for the World National tournament a GenCon this year too! This will be the first Cincinnati tournament that will have Empires, too.

Join us on Saturday, July 9, 2016 at Game Swap in Mason, OH for an RGG-sanctioned Dominion tournament. This Swiss tournament will consist of mostly 3-player games from all expansions of Dominion. The tournament will start at 1PM, every player is guaranteed at least 4 games in the tournament, with the last match concluding by 9PM.

1065 Reading Rd. / Mason, OH 45040

People who enter the tournament will be given a Dominion Promo card. The winner of the tournament will be pre-qualified for the Dominion World National Tournament at GenCon in 2016. This is probably the last chance to pre-qualify for the GenCon tournament this year.

The entry fee will be $5. For each entry into the tournament, $4 will be put into the prize pool. All prizes will be given in store credit. The top three or four players will be given portions of the prize pool (depending on how many people enter the tournament).

If you're planning to attend, contact the tournament moderator Adam Horton at adam@adamhorton.com -- this is not required but can guarantee you a spot in the tournament and it will assist with planning. Feel free to send any questions there as well. I'm (AHoppy) happy to answer any questions you might have here since I've been to 3 of these things. Anything I can't answer I can pass on to Adam.

If you want to hang out afterwards, there will be the normal game night for the local boardgaming group (Cincinnati Area Boardgamers). And even if you don't think you're great at Dominion, come out anyways because those of us out before the elimination rounds will play other games too (or more empires since it'll be new and I doubt I'll have played much of it...) trust me, it's a good time

teamlyle wins the tent and cot!
This is a level 4 shelter that gives you 5 energy every 2 days of rest, and also is not affected by any energy/morale losses due to rain storms. Did I mention it'slooking a bit stormy?

Eevee and watno win the mysterious lettered boxes! What could they be?

The blankets are ripped off to reveal 2 cages with chickens in them!  We have Isabelle and Katarina. If you think back to season 1 and 2 of forum survivor, we had Her Henrietta and Josephine. Well, they have grown to old to return this year and have retired to a very happy farm where they will live out their days roaming the countryside.  However, Isabelle is Henrietta's daughter and Katarina is Josephine's daughter!

So these chickens will provide you 5 energy per rest/gather/build period in the form of eggs. Additionally your resting morale will go up to 10. However, you may also kill your chicken at any time for a full energy refill at the cost of a -10 resting morale for the rest of the game because man you just ate your pet! Your chicken I'll stop producing eggs if their counterpart is killed or their owner is voted out. So here you go Eevee, you can take Isabelle and Watno, you can have Katarina.

Next item up for bid: we've got a tent with a small cot! You'll wake up more well rested than ever in this bad boy.

Teamlyle: 1800
Eevee/watno: 1200
Everyone else: 2000

teamlyle wins the burger for 200 AHPB!
This delicious burger restores a staggering 50 energy! You're also feeling so good about yourself your morale has been increased by 20! (which will effect your energy gain of 50). And you're feeling stronger than ever, because:
For this challenge energy gained is not affected by your energy cap

Next item, we've got 2 boxy shapes with blankets covering them. One blanket with an I and one with K on it.
For this item, top 2 bids win.

I'm fine with conditional orders, but only if you've already bid once on the item. You can bid and then in your confessional say like "I'm ling to go up to X on this item " and I'll try to automatically update that. No pooling or sharing. Ties go to the one who had their bid in first. However, please don't give a conditional order unless you know you can't be around, much less headache that way. I'll let bidding on this go till our European friends say "pass" or bid because I know this is not a good time for them

I beat target dummy bolster with fiery bat/kill command, but that was the only game I won with that deck. I almost beat innervate/y'saraj with it but drew first bat instead of kill command on my last turn.
