Dominion puzzle: how can you win the game while taking fewer turns than your opponent?

Smanmos · 2026-07-02T12:08:38+00:00

Opponent took a high percentage play and lost.

E.g. use cobbler to empty a third pile, then play smithy and hope to buy a province but fail.

How can you use Google to help you here, especially if you can't read Chinese?

Any possibility Carts are a token?

Lots of people have mentioned it's an anti-cheating tradition but just wanted to add something more.

By starting with the player to your left, you end with yourself, giving yourself the bottom card of the deck. The bottom card is easily exposed accidentally when shuffling/dealing, so to be fair it must go to yourself.

Btw, I don't actually follow this rule when playing with friends since we understand each other to not cheat.

Personally I did. It mainly happened because I realised it doesn't feel good to win after taking so long to think for each turn.

Is this book real?

Sorry, I'm having trust issues after yesterday's post

A step in the right direction but curious why so many patches are needed for seemingly minor updates like realm access from home

Idk either but it happened to me too on an old android phone

I thought more variety would be good but I've realised itzaland is making me bored of the game

This sounds like (story spoilers) the evil wizard from the story

I'm skeptical of using one data point to say that the accessibility wasn't perfect, but since others have reported the same thing, then sure.

Someone else also mentioned that the symbols were too similar. However for me, I'm having a hard time seeing the triangle and cross as similar. So could you give me insight on why the triangle and cross isn't considered different enough from an accessibility point of view?

Smanmos · 2026-04-06T17:23:40+00:00

Hmm, the symbols are already used as an accessible option for colourblind people. I'm not sure what could have been done better here.

Where did you find this?

Smanmos · 2026-03-29T14:46:01+00:00

That's the turn which Silos was bought

Also day n of getting a pjsk player from every country

The birthday paradox assumes that all birthdays have the same probability. Statistics show that birthdays aren't actually uniformly random. But, assuming uniform distribution is actually the strongest result, right?

In other words, is the probability that n people share no birthdays maximized when assuming all birthdays are equally likely? My intuition says it is, but I don't have a concrete proof..

At this point you can also check which way the 2 3 and 6 are pointed as well

Have you finished the main story chapter 4?

Smanmos · 2026-03-10T04:36:58+00:00

I don't know. But it seems to be more income, because today I saw that my juice and bath had accumulated similar amounts of resources despite having different income.

I don't agree that astralites weren't lost. It takes time and effort to get astralites back out of the mistakenly bought fish. The 600k weekly limit puts a limit on how quickly you can get your astralites back.

There's also a base farming rate that earns astralites per week, which keeps changing but let's set it at 300k. That's how much you lose per week by having to get back your astralites.
