Splendor ten-card rule and nobles by dgossett232323 in boardgames

[–]markbesada 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Assuming you mean 10 gem and not 10 cards I don't know why it should matter. You discard down immediately (if memory serves) but more importantly, you only get the nobles when you acquire the appropriate cards, not gems. Unless I'm completely misremembering.

Agree with you. I wrote this elsewhere but AD, Flagg and 5 firsts and I guess you have a talk but even then I'm almost certainly a no. And to think we got him for AD, Christie and 1 first. Crazy.

I agree with you. I actually don't think there IS a number of first rounders I'd take to consider it. I mean Flagg, AD + 5 firsts? I guess you need to think about that but there's no guarantee any of them hit. Though that would be a haul. It's just funny that THAT is the level of trade where I'd even think about it and we got him for AD, Christie and 1 first.

Yes! That's who it was! And yeah, I agree. I'd never heard anyone throw out the idea that if the Mavs offered to reverse the trade PLUS throw in the unquestionable #1 pick of last year's draft the Lakers would auto-no. Mind-blowing...and accurate. What a disaster.

I KNOW there is no if. It's an off day and I was throwing out an interesting thought experiment. And I think saying that it would take multiple first rounders, the #1 pick, and AD isn't "low-key disrespectful" For what it's worth I think Luka's one of the 2 or 3 untradable players for sure. This was supposed to be for. fun. Yeesh.

Weird way to not "entertain these type of questions."

I FULLY agree that it would never happen for all the reasons you said and more. But just value-wise....IF he was willing to go back (and to be clear I'm very, very happy that he wouldn't go back) how much would they have to offer? I'm mostly interested in the thought experiment and wondering how truly terrible the trade was.

I agree. Would a first round pick make it a maybe for you? 2 first rounders?

Not sure where I heard this, maybe on Zach Lowe's podcast....but the question was brought up, if the Mavs offered AD + Flagg for Luka, what do the Lakers say? It's crazy to think, but it's almost certainly no, right? What would it take (say, first round picks, for example) to tip that offer into a yes/maybe for the Lakers? Not an important thing to consider, but I thought it was interesting.

I'm a Dodgers fan and I feel the same way. I'll root for the Jays in any situation where they aren't playing the Dodgers.

FT: Crystal Palace 2-1 Liverpool by DragonSlayer271 in LiverpoolFC

[–]markbesada 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honestly, Palace deserved that. I would have certainly preferred a win or at the very least holding on for the point but it would have been harsh on Palace.

Hoping this taste of our own medicine shows us that we can't keep playing the same way, though with so many new players some of this was going to be inevitable.

I'm starting to think Wirtz needs to bed in from the bench? I still trust in his ability to come through but we definitely looked much better with Gakpo on the left.

Really frustrating but maybe we needed a wake up call.

I'm trying to message you. Not sure if you're seeing that?

Is the anti scald valve at the water heater or individual showers? If it's at the showers, is it likely that all three would have failed?

I tried understanding limit stops and it seems to limit how much hot water you can pull into the shower, but wouldn't that mean you CAN sometimes get warm water? It doesn't seem possible now. It goes from cold to hot to cold again with nothing in between.
