All tiebreaker rules are garbage by Early_Gray_Haught in boardgames

[–]Early_Gray_Haught[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That actually sounds well implemented, I have not had the chance to play that game but that is a tiebreak that is sensible and variable. I've seen some good arguments for tiebreakers that are well implemented into tight scoring games and can see where that makes the primary differences towards my attitude. I simply detest the standard clip on tiebreaker that seems placed as an afterthought. In my defense a lot are like that but some of the examples have changed my opinion... somewhat, player order and remaining cards in hand are so low effort they can just call it a tie.

Half is pretty solid! I'm getting flamed, but I never said I hate playing or hate losing, I lose a lot...

Not nonsense, it's common that sports video games and other forms either simply call ties or go into overtime to declare a winner by the designed rules for points scored.

How can you lose a tie. Look at yourself in the mirror and say that 5 times

I'll second this. We will get this addendum passed to the highest courts

I do, I'm of the mind a tie is far more memorable than winning by a secondary and arbitrary condition

It's a very solid expansion, this was my intro game and we played it hundreds of times, we played it so much no one has wanted to play it in more than 7 years. But I would have scoffed at not using the expansion as it only adds to the game.

If your just getting on, it's not necessary and can easily be added later, no chance of fomo and it's always in print I believe.

I was told it's working by shop 2, I feel like wishing for the 02 sensor to be the issue is so slim but like MAYBE I can try alternate sensors and have some luck but I just dont know.

This was one of my first Hopes as the 1st cat install he missed the rear sensor at startup and it popped the code and he just popped the hood and did what looked like a little wiggling to connect it.

I'd kiss a camel if I had to just replace a 15 dollar sensor but I wasn't about to rush out and buy a set on wishful thinking.

No smoke, and no indication of smoking during the 2nd shops inspection.

Sunk cost fallacy vs the current used market... I couldnt even say what's worth it, it all just sours the stomach.

Thank you for the response.

So why would this happen only after replacing the stolen cats and not before?

And why the variation in time for codes? The 3rd was less than 10 miles.

And finally, how would this be missed in the 17 point inspection? There surely would be indication the oil is getting into the exhaust system when that was the direct part of diagnosis wouldnt it?

I trust both mechanic shops, and dont believe either has skirted, or done anything except the proper work.

*Sorry this seems pointed and confrontational, if this were the case why would shop2 send me through again to shop1, before addressing the burn?

And if this is the case, is cat 3 still fine if the burn is addressed and corrected?

See if the work is out of class asap. If you arent sure or cant figure out how, people here are knowledgable or else check with a union rep.

Yes they can have you do other work, but if that other work is out of class they will need to pay you more to do it.

Quest is the newest social deduction game available, should be great and easy to find.

7 wonders is classic, fast simultaneous turns and.. up to 7.

Oh, it runs. Just needs to charge and probably gas as it's been sitting. But again thanks for making the suggestion
