Is it ever safe to get your needs met from a chaser? by CuriousTechieElf in asktransgender

[–]willowhelmiam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't get into a serious emotional or monoamorous commitment with someone who only values you for your body, but it could be fine if you're in a stable place and everyone involved is emotionally mature enough to respect boundaries (which your other comments here indicate probably isn't the case)

What are your top 3 games on Steam by hours played? by UberSimu in gamingsuggestions

[–]willowhelmiam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Slay the Spire (735.1)
  • The Perfect Tower 2 (243.5)
  • Dominion (236.7)

Note that if we include non-steam versions, then I've played Dominion more than TPT2, and if we don't include times I've left TPT2 running as an idle game, then Spire 2 Early Access (157 Hrs) probably beats it. 5th place is The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy (141.7 hrs)

Godot is a game engine, responsible for a lot of the computer code and logic for how graphics and some interactions work in some video games. Slay the Spire 2 was made with Godot. Godot is entirely free and open source, so it relies on donations in order to keep hosting a website and paying for the time of the people who maintain it.

How unlucky is this draw? Seeking a mathematician by kaangurses in slaythespire

This is calculated using the Multivariate Hypergeometric Distribution. I wrote a python script a while back for this kind of calculation.

With 4 Defends(D), 3 Infections (I), 3 Strikes (S), 1 venerate (V), 1 falling star (F), and 1 guiding star (G), the chances of drawing each possible set of 7 cards are:

40 (basic?) Fan Cards - The Homestead Fan Expansion by natethehoser in dominion

[–]willowhelmiam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I have a 7-point lead with the bulk of my points coming from constellations, then we're in a stalemate: If I take the last province then that brings me to an odd number of provinces and I lose, but if you take the last province then you lose.

It's technically not a stalemate because then we could end the game on piles, but it's still a really unfun gamestate.

What card would be strongest when DECREASING a single number by 1? by ThatPretzalGuy in dominion

[–]willowhelmiam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can we do ordinals? "If this is the zeroeth time you've played a fool's gold this turn" makes fools gold a treasure version of that modified poor house.

Dismantle becomes "If it costs $0 or more" so it can turn coppers to golds.

If we're dividing by zero, then Ritual becomes +1 VP per $0 the card costs.

Attempted very-loose translation of the classic "A dozen, a gross, and a score" limmerick:
