Sorry but the new pointsystem is at best...medicore...

2 thoughts:

Kdice ist a game - I want to play it. Its not the goal to leave a game after 3 rounds to score +1 Point. The goal of a game is to play it...
And I play boardgameto the end and dont stop in the middle. So there is a major error in the new pointdesign.

2nd:
The point distribution is disatrous. You cant leave a game after the first round. You have to wait for 5 or more rounds and with a bad start you could leave the with -9 or more....

even if you stay and get 4th, 3rd or even 2nd you are normaly get -5 to +2 points.
It even occured to me to get 1 (one) point for beeing 2nd with 17" of the board (all filled with 8 dicestacks).

There should be a more balanced dirstribution of points from 1th to (lets say) 4th.

Sorry the system right now ist....ahm yeah...shi ..... not that good ;)

i am with you on the "point distribution". May be i dont understand it correctly, dont know. But it's realy unfair, cause 2nd gets mostly a very low score.

The new scoring system (even with the recent modification) is tailored to a bunch of extremely influential players here. We small potatoes have no say here.

I agree with your opinion on point distribution. But if you understand, the goal of this game is to dominate and be 1st or 2nd, so then points for 3rd – 7th place players don’t really matter. In fact, I can see that in the next version, only the winner get a point.

The choice to come here is yours. So, change the way you play.

Well I have a job and a life and don't get to play much but still manage to have over 160 games and top 15 (for now). Just play smarter.

I agree with the you on the point system, the more interesting games would be to reward players for hanging in there. The more rounds you stay along with domination and finishing place would make a better quality game. I like the game now but it could use a little improvement, Just my 2 cents.

There's another small change going in tonight which sides with what is being said here.

Wait, one thing I don't get is if I have twenty territories, 2nd has nine and 3rd has one... isn't the best option for me to ally with 3rd so I can max out my dom with 27+ land?

lol matt and 'smarter'..

I watched him get totally owned by rnd in an end game from a dominant position. It was hilarious. One mistake after another.
