Forum Archive / Re: T50 rush deck.
« on: March 31, 2010, 10:18:36 pm »
I use a fully upped 6x graboid, 3x shrieker, 6x earthquake, 4x reverse time deck for T50. The quakes obviously slows down most decks and increases chance of EM vs. rainbow decks, especially those run on the time mark instead of entropy/supernova. I'm not sure if reverse time is truly necessary but has some use if a rainbow does put down an early oty, or to slow down another speed deck in T50. If there aren't a lot of other speed decks in T50, switching out the reverse times for precogs isn't a bad idea.

Issue Archive / You go 2nd but can still play a card before your opponent.
« on: March 30, 2010, 07:08:31 am »
Even after losing the coin flip to determine who goes first, there's a split second right after the coin toss animation that allows you to play a card (the light flashes green as well before turning red).
It's very brief, but I've been able to put down a tower at the start of the game when it's not my turn to start the game.

Random, Normal and Elder / Re: The AI3 Farming Challenge

Mono-life, unupped: 11 pillars, 3 dragons, 6 frogs, 4 adrenalines, 6 heals.
I played a 40 min session only, and skipped all the spins.
Wins: 31 (15 of which were EM)
Loss: 1
Score: 779
Coin: 854
OK I just might stick to AI3 for a quick score grind instead of T50. Previous to the unupped deck I used above, I played with a fully upped life deck (1 less tower, cockatrices instead of dragons). It took me 40 minutes to get 1k score, but EM rate was ~80-85%. Unfortunately I didn't keep track of that session. Before I use to do T50 grinding, but only averaged about 1k score/hour while spinning only on farms. Much more variance in T50 obviously as the more farms there are, the better.

I looked at this thread and never considered Ai3 grind over T50, but I put together my upped mono-life (10 towers, 6 frogs, 4 cockatrices, 4 adrenalines, 6 heals) and works out pretty well. Probably moreso than grinding T50 (although the coin won might not compare because of all the farms in T50), but the score gained seems to be much better than what I was getting from T50 grind of 1k/hr.

« on: March 26, 2010, 12:03:48 am »If I remember right, California's GDP output alone would rank it #8 in the world, scary.Canada's low population obviously says something: People don't like itActually, I would say getting both bronze and a silver IS as good as a gold.Yeah but Canada`s population is lower than that of the state of California. I would like to see California by itself take on the rest of America.
But even with gold=4, Canada = 75, USA = 79. GG, Canada.
But really, US only has 9 gold. Evan Lysachek's doesn't count, sorry.

Good old timmy's and roll up the rim. I heard they were expanding the franchise down to the states, is this true?
Oh wait, I just did a quick wiki search. As of September 27, 2009, Tim Hortons has 3,527 systemwide restaurants, including 2,971 in Canada and 556 in the United States. Crazy, eh?
OH well, nothing beats milk out of a bag.
And Obama stealing pages from our health care playbook.

Game Suggestions and Feedback / Re: Two gripes... when healing occurs in turns, and slow play of AI
« on: March 25, 2010, 11:37:00 pm »
I do believe weapon damage is done after your shards. Time it so your weapon gets the last blow after all your heals (or heal yourself with a card).
Or how about putting down a shield to prevent dmg from getting to you in the first place? You can also sundial to stall a turn to heal back up to full and then your creatures can attack next turn.
There are probably many other things you can do, but it depends on what you're fighting. You get rewarded for getting EM's, I don't think they should just be handed to you100% of the time.
But yes, I do agree with your second point. I've always whined about the animations/delays taking so long! I dream of the day for an option to disable animations.

I hope the exploitation wasn't getting infinite oracle spins, that would've been hilarious.
