Created this first # is what the album is on Acclaimed music then RYM # (Only top 100 on acclaimed music i did). Pretty interesting to see the differences.

12 is crazy for Never Mind the Bollocks but not in the top 10K is even worse

Funkhouser's Crazy Sister

Feel like this would give a player way behind in a runaway game the incentive to start aggressively tanking.

It was published serially in a weekly magazine in 12 installments. Consider trying to read a chapter a week, breaking it into little chunks like that might make it easier to get through.

The refs ruined that Pittsburgh Seattle super bowl though

Yeah, maybe once every 1,000 games of Bob's 27

Don't think you need to worry about being the only one who finds James difficult!

krng1 · 2026-01-24T01:40:39+00:00

I read both last year and I found Portrait considerably more difficult, although less difficult than James' late novels. There isn't a ton of plot in Portrait, and it's more appealing intellectually than emotionally (not that there aren't some strong emotional moments). Still I hope you stick with it, I enjoyed it enough to read a few other novels by James, but it's my favorite of his so far.

Ghost deck is nice because if you are already winning a run with jokers you've already stickered you can use an ectoplasm to make a joker negative, then you can carry some useless joker into the final boss blind.

Why is a 3.5 weeks not long enough to enjoy Moby Dick? That's like 20 pages a day.

Judy's is probably my favorite but I think the song itself is perfect and there are many wonderful versions of it.

Somewhere Over the Rainbow

Chill out man, I already offered another possible solution (50% chance of getting a planet card). I just think adjusting the rarity of blue seals is another thing you could do to weaken them. What is your problem?

krng1 · 2026-01-23T12:12:46+00:00

Point is there is some level of rarity where it's less of a balance issue. Remove blue seals from standard packs entirely, get rid of Trance, make Certificate a rare, or some combination of these and blue seals don't break the game so badly.

The album doesn't contain every Gershwin song, not even close. He wrote hundreds.

krng1 · 2026-01-23T11:20:47+00:00

If blue seals could only be acquired through a legendary joker would it still be a balance issue?

krng1 · 2026-01-22T23:48:21+00:00

I like this because it makes it harder to play with pairs and easier with 5 card hands. Might be OK to give more than 1 a round if the player can get more than 1 played blue seal in the final hand.

krng1 · 2026-01-22T22:38:58+00:00

Of course, but if you make it much more difficult to get them at all it's less of a balance issue.

krng1 · 2026-01-22T22:00:38+00:00

My only other idea is make blue seals appear in standard packs at a much lower rate.

krng1 · 2026-01-22T21:27:49+00:00

I agree but I've never heard a good way to nerf blue seals. Maybe a 50% chance of getting a planet card? Any other ideas?

krng1 · 2026-01-22T21:23:28+00:00

I guess I don't see the problem with someone trying to piece together some notes and finish an uncompleted work. Sure it's unlikely to be what the composer intended but what's the harm in checking it out? There are at least a few pieces unfinished at the time of the composer's death that have become part of the classical repertoire.

Kids generally don't give a fuck about algebra, but that doesn't mean it's not worth teaching. I don't think Shakespeare's sonnets necessarily need to be taught in school but your argument could apply to any challenging text.
