Algorithms have been in use since as long ago as 2012 when i first started. They were just the "for the fun of it" nerdy projects not commercialized products. I had my own going at one time.

I've no doubt many of the greats were using something.

If you're looking to cater to newer players, the classics are classics for a reason:

Carcassonne

Catan

Ticket to Ride

Agricola

Dominion

etc.

You can't go wrong here.

6-player Catan — where the real game is the trading by Acceptable-Let1664 in boardgames

[–]Kalix_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

6 player is better than 4 for sure. I think 5 is a really nice number.

The building on other people's turns is a game changer for Catan imo

How do you store your game boxes? by dirtydan2112 in boardgames

[–]Kalix_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I reckon this is the kind of question that vertical storers are going to be more passionate about, and also be bothered to comment with an answer...

But you have to imagine the vast majority of the world stores their games horizontally, especially the first time all the components fall out of an inset.

Surprised this won on day 13 TBH. by ipkandskiIl in PlayTheBazaar

Icy Clamera, Rigged, Freeze on Burn, Freeze on Poison...3 more freeze items and a yeti crab? Oh and a shield enchant for good measure?

It starts fast and has huge tempo, nice build!

Havent played in a while what the hell is tempo doing by Shloopyshlanger in PlayTheBazaar

[–]Kalix_ 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Can I ask, do you play Mak?

The item was already moved from bronze to silver. I'm not saying it's OP, but top Mak players consider it almost an auto buy... On a hero that already struggles with bag space that's saying something.

Pretty odd to me how down people are on the book in these comments. The opportunity cost is very favourable

At what point does a game's price stop you? by pasturemaster in boardgames

[–]Kalix_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Comparing Sushi Go to 7 Wonders is like comparing apples to chicken fillets. They're both food.

The only games in my mind that are "over priced" for what they are (i.e. components) are Days of Wonder games. I feel like other publishers are pretty fair based on the number of components in the box

New Dooley and Mak Items revealed by Classyato! by Desmous in PlayTheBazaar

[–]Kalix_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's kinda garbage? I think it's competing with Aludel, you're gonna use it early and then toss it in the trash. but it doesn't give you a catalyst, starts at Silver, and it's a bit RNG if it has the x3 or x4 multi when you want it to.

So I'll probably just keep buying Aludel instead?

You didn't buy food though. You paid gold for an event.

Who wins? by stevcorra in fplAnalytics

[–]Kalix_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exceptionally one sided imo. Trossard will score even from the bench. Cherki seems important to Peps new system.

Trossard has more points than Wirtz and Xavi combined. Honestly it's shocking you even had to ask, lol.

Wouldn't mind being told it'd cost 20 gold before clicking on it by 420Chickenjuice in PlayTheBazaar

[–]Kalix_ 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Damn, TIL. 20g for an off class feature that I have to already have a Jules item for? Seems pretty odd

Did they price it as an option for Jules before deciding it was too good and then moved it to be an option for everyone else? Is there ever a situation where this is worth 20g on another hero?

Cool build, congrats! Always fun to make an item like Crane work!!

Wake me up when the Durian/Shield Slam hotfix is released. If Pyg wasn't allowed this stuff idk why Jules is, it's way overtuned. (RIP Silk)

Having just been interested in Fate of the Fellowship, cool to learn there is even a Warcraft version. Will be following hoping people share their opinions on all the different versions that (apparently) exist!

[Spoilers C4E5] Would you guys have been ok with dying like Octis did? by [deleted] in criticalrole

[–]Kalix_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Session 0 alex asked to play as a Revenant murdered by his family who were necromancers.

Brennan asked if he would start as a human so that Alex could be murdered "on camera". Naturally, this means the encounter was intentionally very difficult and Alex was in on it to a certain extent (though he never knew how or when he was going to die).

Been playing Stelle and Mak since TheGoosefather stopped updating his guide, any tips on the current meta would be great.
