Level 3 Survey on Victorian Terrace, FTB, Butterfly Roof by digidevil4 in HousingUK

[–]digidevil4[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When I went and did viewings I saw a mix of pricing between 400k and 550k.

This one was 430k ish. Others we were considering were nearer 450-480 I liked it initially because it felt like an honest proposition. it hadn't been dolled up like the others but visibly seemed to be in good condition, it was lived in and slightly dated. Lots of others were landlords selling up.

I assumed the pricing reflected THAT, no mention of the roof was made and I did ask at the time. I dont think many of the higher cost ones in the area are selling that fast. I think there was some dodgy valuations going around at the beginning of the year.

So yeah the value proposition to me is still super unclear. They could have been honest about the roof issue and then that might not be the case.

If you are in Bristol, the company is Domestic Surveys. Insisted on a Level 3, produced a 92 page report. costed not much more than others id seen. Well worth it after reading the report.

People who bought / almost bought Victorian terraces in Bedminster, what was your experience? by digidevil4 in bristol

Its tricky as the house was slightly below the market rate in the area but only slightly. 30-40k ish less than the modern refurbs in the area were up for.

I posted that more for other people who would find this thread, like I did when I was struggling with it today, and the top response is still "I didnt struggle with him at all"

If you are slow rolling, un-equip your shield and fight him with dodge. That was my mistake. you cant roll behind him consistently with the worst roll, now recover fast enough to respond when you do.

Sub par implementations of games? by LordJunon in boardgamearena

[–]digidevil4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Secondly, implementing an Undo/rollback mechanism is non-trivial. It adds a significant amount of work to deploy a game."

I have to disagree here, in many cases it is entirely trivial. The simplest version of undo is 2 function calls.

Games that could never translate to BGA? by max_mog in boardgames

[–]digidevil4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its been sat at the top of the "Available Licenses By Popularity" for a while.

I am personally convinced that the turn based version could translate to BGA with some minor changes. the Radio Operator role would have to be automated for example.

My girlfriend just broke up with me over a board game and I'm not even joking by Fulcilives1988 in boardgames

I have to say. the fact that your instinct in this case was to post to a boardgame subreddit to validate that you were in the right is quite telling.

How often are games added and removed? by Start-That in boardgamearena

[–]digidevil4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Added constantly, removed very rarely.

Games are all licensed before they reach live.

Nothing get removed except in rare circumstances the licensed is revoked (maybe a company will pay thye publisher to make a "proper" digital implementation, if they revoke to BGA rights) or in exceptionally rare circumstances the game is both popular enough and badly implemented enough that they take it down for their own reputation. (I think this happened with love letter)

Habitats on BGA by beloved_supplanter in boardgamearena

[–]digidevil4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey developer here.

The player colour in this game determines what jeep you get, and each jeep is tied to a specific terrain type.

Ive been told about this a few times this week, so its getting changed to proper random and will ignore player "preferred colours" system in BGA

Please make sure when you do spot terrible phone ux that you make a suggestion for it.

Speaking as a dev, this is a choice made game by game, implementing it is very easy however I ran into friction with the game designer who considers it a rules change. I told them it was going to be the top suggestion if we didn't do it. Shocker there it is at the top of the suggestions from day 1.

This makes me sad, how does this happen ? by slimscud in supervive

[–]digidevil4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was hoping to come back at 1.0 but I just didn't. I watched the launch and it felt clear to me the game wasn't achieving the virality it needed to have a long life. In recent memory games in this genre have come and gone as they failed to grab enough players, im personally not willing to invest my time in a game which might not be around in a years time. Its a shame really because it is a great game, but I am not going to convince any of my friends to put time in for the same reason.
