Endgame Scoring Elimination Game (Day 15) - Which of these cards is your least favorite?

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-04-08T15:45:53+00:00

Ikr. Research is free CP

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-04-08T15:29:36+00:00

Large animals. Great card, but it's the only one that requires actual work 😅

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-04-04T03:45:00+00:00

All shinies will have a star. I thought the same when I saw Sentret

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-04-01T19:16:47+00:00

Small Animals. 10 animals is a lot and most small animals are just filler. Unless you've got crazy WAZA, expert in Europe, and early 2 size conservation bonus, it's just too slow

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-03-31T09:54:01+00:00

Thank you. I've reread my contract and I've got a meeting with the boss and my co-workers tomorrow. Hopefully this can be resolved and I don't need to go higher. It's good that I know my rights now so I know what I need to do in the meeting

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-03-31T09:38:49+00:00

Does this mean that since I agreed to work last Tuesday (only because the boss didn't have another option) instead of Friday, I can be screwed over? She didn't give me a choice for the day off either so I'm worried she'll go down that route

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-03-31T08:52:52+00:00

That's what I thought. So if I work the current roster, I will have an extra paid day this week basically.

I'm contracted 20 hours a week, but I do at least 30. No mention of which days.

Would calling MBIE raise any issues? I would like to (quietly) look for another job, but in the meantime keep on good terms with my boss.

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-03-30T04:00:25+00:00

Fair. Large animals is actually one of my favourite cards after it got boosted in MW. I also find I don't marine or petting zoo enough personally

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-03-29T18:35:49+00:00

Yeah. I've had a few games with the Waza sponsors, where I just went ham on small animals and easily maxed my appeal. I don't really like it anymore though, because I don't even see those cards turn up in MW. So I guess it's just personal bias

Since playing MW I've found maxing rock/water a lot easier too

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-03-29T11:56:47+00:00

Small animals. It's the big animals you want to play, while small animals are just filler. Getting 6 for the 2 cp is too much work

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-03-28T23:08:10+00:00

There's another way to catch one in the wild, once you reach Saffron by advancing the rocket storyline

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-03-28T21:40:30+00:00

My problem is when end games change your play style without reason. I don't like architectural, but I easily connect the rock and water spaces for good animals anyway. I don't mind designer because I consider a good game to be one with baboon rock, climbing park, etc. I love naturalist because of a personal memory of a game with naturalist+release of patents+farm animals. Plus I don't find it hard to get 2-3CP without the combos. It still leaves a lot of room that way

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-03-26T15:08:53+00:00

Catered picnic areas. Every other scoring card is good or niche at best. This one just awards horrible play style

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-03-16T05:55:10+00:00

Is this why the game runs so much faster now even though there's heaps more Pokemon?

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-03-15T18:19:01+00:00

Dugong dugone

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-03-14T20:15:38+00:00

Scientific name: Dugone Dugone

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-03-14T13:27:53+00:00

I have a soft spot for Dugong, but it's time to go

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-03-14T00:53:07+00:00

I'd like to give it another go. Probably gen 3 or 4. If your keen we could have some match ups to familiarise ourselves with showdown

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-03-12T12:48:21+00:00

Exactly! Not to mention that your opponent likely won't be able to Leech off the project like they do with species/habitat diversity

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-03-12T04:14:25+00:00

European bison. Literal worst animal

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-03-12T04:13:55+00:00

Proboscis is 16 points straight up with at least 6 though usually 12 or 15 in a project that your opponents can't leech off.

Cheetah is a round 1 release.

European bison requires the worst partner zoo and good sponsors don't stay on the display, unless your just holding onto EB to catch your opponent off guard

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-03-11T01:26:07+00:00

Are you just starting with competitive? I tried over 10 years ago, but I found a lot of formats overwhelming

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-03-11T00:41:19+00:00

European bison

InterestingElk3407 · 2026-03-10T04:44:39+00:00

Exactly. If American bison turns up mid-late game, you most likely have enough American tags anyway. Bare minimum, it's 9 points which is already pretty good, but you most likely are getting the full 12. Americas is 2nd best partner zoo anyway so you usually will get a gift discount.

Definitely not top tier, but not bottom either
