[GO] Poker Spoils

[Queen_Herpes]

I think the addition of being able to play a "set" with just one spoil is the greatest idea of all time. This is a game changer, a strategy changer, and will make the game so much. much more interesting to play. Similarly great is the idea that you can play two spoils as a "set." Bravo, and how do we make this happen?

Very good idea. I'm thinking we should advertise this more, I'd really like it implemented. Any ideas?

Well, I doubt anyone upon reading it will disagree that its a great idea. The main problem will be that its a completely different way to cash spoils, which as yeti said, will be difficult to say the least. To some degree, its another game altogether, and even if it becomes pending....its not gonna happen for a while. Like you though... I want to play it today.

Yet another great idea on the suggestion board! LEts make Poker Spoils work!

Maybe a poll is necessary? To show our support

[Fascisti]

I really like this idea and will probably implement next time I play IRL.

[pmchugh]

Genius, absolutely brilliant idea.

I think that the harder a set is to obtain the more troops it should reward, regardless of the original rules of poker.

Forgotten to check this thread in a while.

I won't profess any astounding abilities, but I am familiar with XML and would be willing to at least look at what would need to be done to get this implemented.

[wolfpack0530]

this is a great idea

[Queen_Herpes]

I agree!! Make this happen!

[sniffie]

will it also be possible to cash twice with only 3 or 4 cards?

AWESOME IDEA!!!

its one of the very rare good ideas in this forum!!! But I think we will need some adjustments: In my oppinion spoils should be worth a bit more than in your proposal so that gameplay will be a bit more like esc.. Cashing a flush should be worth ~25 because its so rare and you also have to wait 5 turns to have the same amount of cards again.

Do you mean after eliminating someone? I was under the impression it would be similar to now only forcing the midturn if you get 5 or more cards.

Hmm i think you have to be careful not to overpower certain cashes, because then it would increase the luck factor. A 25-cash is a big swing if you opponents are only getting ~10 cashes.

This idea seems to be very popular and has had very little, if any, negative feedback. It would take a little bit of work as it's adding another Spoils option, but I believe it would be worth it, as long as a proper definition of how these spoils work was clearly posted in the rules etc.

I'll PM him, and if not, i'll read over the whole topic and update it myself

[Laughing.Boy]

Hey all. Glad to update! Give me a little while to consolidate all the feedback, figure out what was most popular, maybe run some numbers and update.

edit: updated. I hope that caught everything.

[wolfpack0530]

i think the percentage based spoils allocation is fairer even if it doesnt match poker hands .

[fumandomuerte]

amazing suggestion! I support this all the way.
