Round 8 Result

This round was a little more restrained than last, allowing Vijarada to pick up a point after spending a mere 6 coins. A fairly average round overall, but the endgame beckons... every point is vital.
One fallback value used this round.

Round 9 Result

Fewer people bidding high in this low-spending round allows Not Known 15 to collect a point on 8 coins, ahead of a three-way tie on 7. Speaking of ties, 2nd place is split between Harambey180 and Not_Mafia on 31. Our three lowest spenders all go +10.

mallowgeno retakes the lead, but it's very close and with only three rounds left it seems unlikely that he'll be able to keep it.

Round 10 Result

This round was marked by another second-place tie, this time between Harambey180 and StrangerCoug. Not Known 15 went all in with 41 coins, beating them both by a single coin to take ten points. Below that the round was a fairly average one, with everyone spending double digits being rewarded for their effort and everyone who didn't going either +9 or (in Iconeum's case) +10.
Two fallback values in this round.

[Vijarada]

Can someone tell fellisan that he's misunderstood the game mechanics lol

[Not Known 15]

Can someone tell fellisan that he's misunderstood the game mechanics lol

I don't think that this is the case.

[Harambey180]

Also, did mallowgeno seriously go all-in in each round and actually hold onto first place as of right now? That's gamebreaking strategy (though I have one for the next Coin Payback game. Won't reveal it!)
I guess he will get beaten though because of 'last round all coins'.

SHHHHH

Yeah I just was curious how it would work out, not too shabby but I will not win for sure

[JDGA]

I think it depends a lot on the meta of the game - the early rounds had very few players spending heavily, and that allowed you to get quite a few early points. For the most part, I'd say that such a strategy tends to fall apart as soon as there's a high-spending round, and it takes very little effort to exploit it.

[Cheery Dog]

After I hit the lead I did have thoughts of 'spend one more than Mallow' each of the remaining rounds, but I didn't believe it would work.

Congratulations to Cheery Dog! Very interesting game with quite the variety of strategies used. Thanks to everyone for playing, if you've got any feedback for Game 4 let me know!

Well done Cheery

Nice try mallow
Not so bad Vija

Second worst place for me.
I did beat that dude who probably didn't understand the game.

[Iconeum]

Felissan didn't 'not' understand the game. She literally not played. Did you notice the '1 fallback' value used each round?
