Dungeon of Strategy - Dominion - DeasVail

[Magua]

Yes.

[Jeffcole1]

Aw, come on, I just wanted to have a little fun, and here you go making me feel bad.

At least let me finish my turn.

Young Witch cont'd:
- discard Chapel and Silver

Buy Phase:
Play Gold and 2 Silvers
Total Money: $3 (Gold) + $4 (2 Silvers) + $2 (Grand Market) = $9
Buy Platinum

[Magua]

You shouldn't feel bad. You did well (I didn't grasp the inherent benefit of the Chapel itself being the Bane against Young Witch until two turns or so ago; you did).

It's just that, at 3-4 days per turn, this game can easily last another month.

[Jeffcole1]

Yeah, I'm going to make a confession here: I've played a lot of Dominion online (the site I used is down now, unfortunately), and I know of a website dedicated to Dominion strategy. For me, it was just a matter of recognizing strong cards and combinations thereof (and a bit of luck, but in a game like this, that's obvious). If you want, I can go into detail either now or after the game ends. I am going to finish the game, though.

Isotropic? Yeah, that was the site a number of scummers went on as well, including me. There

is

another site that hosts Dominion, but it's not as good, as you have to buy the expansions.

Should I do another game with a bit more strict times? (24 hours instead of 48)
Or do you have something else in mind? These dungeons are still in process of being completed properly, so I wouldn't mind using something else.

Note: I will only do something that isn't too complicated to run, nor will I do something that would require searching too hard for.

[Magua]

Well, TBF, I wasn't saying, "Screw you guiz, I quit," but more looking for DV and diplomat to weigh in their opinion as well.

---

As for a new game: stricter times would be appreciated.

[DiplomatDC]

Stricter times would be nice, because usually I only get around doing my turn when the deadline is looming.

Yes, I am aware of Goko; I tried it out for a time, but it just wasn't the same. I do hear it's gotten much better recently though, so I might try it again.

[DeasVail]

As far as my opinion goes, I'm not too fussed. Whatever others want is fine with me.

[Jeffcole1]

So yeah, 24 hours is fine by me. I also need my next hand.

[DeasVail]

I think it's my turn. If so,

Play Tribute

[swyellowtail]

DiplomatDC's top two cards are Silver (+$2 for DV) and Curse. Both cards are discarded.

[swyellowtail]

After DV finishes his turn, the 24 hour rule will be applied. If you do not make an action, you will be prodded and another 24 hours will go through. 3 prods will result in your turn being skipped. 4 prods will result in disqualification.
Failing to act in 48 hours the first time will result in the same thing as if you were to be prodded 3 times. The second time will be the same as the 4th prod.

...although, I might make it harsher... as in, no prods are made at all. You only get 24 hours to act. Don't think that would be a good idea, though.

[swyellowtail]

...Oh the irony.

[DeasVail]

Sorry and thanks for the prod.

Play Copper ($3), Buy Chapel

Discard 3 cards.

[DiplomatDC]

Play Young Witch

[DiplomatDC]

^Discarding Estate and Curse

[Magua]

...is there anything else, or can I take my turn?

[Jeffcole1]

If my deck was reshuffled after my last turn, I shouldn't have any cards in my discard pile; the Platinum I bought went into the discard before the shuffle, and would have been shuffled in with the rest. The way this game works, I don't see how I can have just 1 card in my discard pile between turns.

[swyellowtail]

You got a curse from Diplomat's Young Witch, Jeff.

[Jeffcole1]

Ah, never mind then. I wasn't sure if that had already been processed. Carry on.

[DiplomatDC]

Play Silver, Buy Courtyard

[Magua]

Play Young Witch
Discard Remake, Curse

Waiting for new cards
