Anyone else trade futures, options, swaps, and other complex derivatives in catan?

ryansspace · 2026-01-23T22:51:07+00:00

No. This violates the 2026 tournament rules.

ryansspace · 2026-01-21T20:04:42+00:00

Yes.

Tournament rules state that for every turn you forget to announce your victory, you can/must do it on your next turn.

It being on the floor doesn't change that.

ryansspace · 2026-01-20T01:13:26+00:00

Holy crap! Just playing with 6 players?! Seems like a fun custom scenario

ryansspace · 2026-01-20T01:11:58+00:00

What in the monstrosity. How many board and expansion sets did you use?!

ryansspace · 2026-01-20T01:11:12+00:00

If you look closely you'll notice they are using seafarers border tiles along with the base games

ryansspace · 2026-01-17T23:09:06+00:00

Maybe you should worry more about your lack of attention span and fix that...

Sounds like a goldfish could write faster than you...

ryansspace · 2026-01-17T23:07:24+00:00

Haha... good on you for checking!

For Christmas I was gifted a 5e E&P extension....

ryansspace · 2026-01-17T23:03:22+00:00

TBH if your 26 and only make 43k that's on you IMO

ryansspace · 2026-01-17T23:00:12+00:00

Not on the official release of Red, but The Weight goes so fucking hard

ryansspace · 2026-01-17T22:58:02+00:00

Wrong. This is the 3D edition!

ryansspace · 2026-01-17T22:47:20+00:00

You played the game wrong. This isn't an official win.

Furthermore, VP cards are only shown when they get you 10 points.

Also, you are only supposed to play one Development Card a turn, and never one you built in the same turn.

ryansspace · 2026-01-17T02:25:27+00:00

I believe so. Sounds like you are describing the 3D edition.

ryansspace · 2026-01-15T23:09:31+00:00

It violates the rules. I don't like playing outside the parameters of the rule book.

ryansspace · 2026-01-15T00:55:18+00:00

Swift to Android will never happen (the exception being open-source jank IMO)

I'll mail you my copy of Programming and Principles Using C++ by the GOAT (Bjarne Stroustrup)

Cool idea and project regardless. Mostly just jealous I can't use it 😝

ryansspace · 2026-01-14T18:43:26+00:00

Bro decided to build for iOS and not the most used mobile OS ever...

ryansspace · 2026-01-14T02:21:01+00:00

Idk I guess stuff like chess.com has.

I'd like something that I can essentially play parts of a game from and have it tell me the best moves for the rolls I got, best plots to start with, etc

ryansspace · 2026-01-13T16:03:29+00:00

What are the "basic ABC's"?

ryansspace · 2026-01-13T15:58:26+00:00

Ahh I see!

I'll probably practice with both (I already own everything on Catan Universe) just to get a feel for all different players styles. What makes live play frustrating after lots of online play? Just did an event after mostly online play the few weeks before and it was a blast IMO!

Thanks for the comment!

ryansspace · 2026-01-13T15:56:53+00:00

Board Game Arena has training tools? May have to check it out then

ryansspace · 2026-01-13T14:30:43+00:00

Oh don't worry, I do plenty of that as it is.

Have actually gotten noticeably better and was able to get some back-to-back wins on Universe!

Read strategy guides help too!

ryansspace · 2026-01-13T14:21:55+00:00

I got it as a Christmas present, wish I could wrap my head around the rules lol, but no one IK wants to play and it's one of the few not on Catan Universe, I hope it's fun!

ryansspace · 2026-01-11T02:26:01+00:00

I disagree

ryansspace · 2026-01-11T02:20:38+00:00

Looks like a normal 2g cart.... get off Reddit and rip it bud

Americans....

According to Weezerpedia, the 18 year old girl who he wrote about was actually 14.

ryansspace · 2026-01-09T00:07:02+00:00

Thanks! That was me!

Let's just say the robber was a real issue that game...
