General Discussion / Re: h0w to find ratings; how to search topics?

« Last post by Ingix on Today at 12:10:49 PM »

1.  How do I look up my own rating?  I went to my own profile, but it was not under Profile Info>Summary or under Profile Info>Stats.  Where is it hidden?

The forum account and in-game account are separate, though many players have accounts with the same name on both. So there is no way to find your rating here in the forums. One way to find it is to log into the game, then switch to the "Leaderboard" tab. If you scroll down the leaderboard, you'll find your rating/ranking (in blue).

2.  How does one search these message boards?  I sometimes have a question about a particular card.  But I see no way to search for that card by name...so I just post my question here, which likely results in duplicative posts.  A lot of/most sites have a search bar, but I can't find where it is on this site.  (I assume scores of people have already posted questions about finding their rating--or of a friend--but since I can't figure out a way to search for that question . . . .)  :-)

You need to scroll up any page on the forum as much as possible. There there is a menu with gray text on black background, it starts with "Home, Help, Search...".

If you click "Search", then you can enter a search phrase, an age of the message you are searching for and (below) limit it to a number of subboards.

Card Bugs / Re: Delay a Teacher then Call the Teacher immediately next round

« Last post by Ingix on Today at 09:45:04 AM »

That's actually correct!

Note that Teacher says

"At the start of your turn, you may call this,..."

There is no "next" in it, and the text is "below the line", so it happens not when you play this, but some other time.

A rule, which you may not be familiar with, says that if a "Start of turn" effect creates another "Start of turn" effect, the new "Start of turn" effect happens already this turn.

You can't get this speedup by playing Teacher "normally", because then the "Start of turn" is over for that turn, so the first opportunity to call it is your next turn. But a few effects can play cards at the "Start of turn" (Ghost, Captain and now Delay).

I guess it is time to add another server or two.   I haven't been able to play all night. :-(  If there was a lightweight client option (like Isotropic) then one server could handle everything.  (at least all the lightweight clients)

General Discussion / Server Load / Time Zones

« Last post by dloach on Today at 05:52:17 AM »

Hey all,

As we no doubt have all experienced, the global quarantine has indirectly made online Dominion very popular. I tried playing tonight with my friends and we accomplished one game before the EastCoast server froze on us.

My question is - to either Shuffle IT official or anyone with knowledge - can we confirm any high-low server loads in the 24h cycle?

I'll probably try and test playing at Noon EST with friends instead (bad idea b/c Euro players?). But it would be nice if some of us could coordinate off-time hours, so that everybody can get the chance to play.


Happy Dominion! May your first draws always be 5/2
- Dave

Hello,

I am trying to Sign in to the game. Sometimes when I press the button nothing happens. I've tried Ctrl+R and the same thing. Sometimes it starts logging in but it doesn't actually work.

Please help.

Card Bugs / Delay a Teacher then Call the Teacher immediately next round

« Last post by Kameyou on Today at 04:41:28 AM »

Yesterday I had a game with Peasant with Event "Delay".

When both of us had the 1 card of Silk Merchants and Teacher on hand, I chose to play Teacher instead of Silk Merchants, then I planned to call Teacher in my next turn.

My opponent chose to play Silk Merchants and buy a card thus Delay the Teacher. When his turns come, the Teacher is played, then he can call the Teacher immediately. Then he can speed up and getting advantages of +Action on his Silk Merchants card.

Is it a bug or just the Event can overwrite the rule that Teacher has to be called in next turn after I play it this turn?

• Once you set aside the Action card, you have to play it at the start of your next turn.
• If you do multiple things at the start of your turn, you can order them.
• Playing the Action card at the start of your next turn does not use up an Action.

General Discussion / Re: Villager

« Last post by Ingix on 30 March 2020, 11:23:10 PM »

Your message is a bit confusing to me because Villagers don't use cubes. If I misunderstood you, please clarify!

There are Villagers, online they look like this (when you have 2 Villagers):
 


You can, in your Action phase, click on that icon and this converts 1 Villager to 1 Action. But you normally never need to do this, because when you have no Actions left but Villagers (and Action cards in hand), the game will simply allow you to continue playing Action cards and automatically use Villagers for that. It uses some red in the text to warn you that now you are using up Villagers, and the card outline is blue instead of the normal green:



Projects use cubes. You get as many as Projects are in the game (max: 2). In the beginning they are in each player's info box (here together with Villagers):



Once you've bought a project, they move to the project to indicate that you bought it and it now "works" for you:




I hope this answered your question. If you had something else in mind, please clarify.
