Posted: Wed Nov 09, 2005 3:51 pm Post subject: Bidding Power Card name change suggestions |
|
|
I would like to suggest this card (the one that blanks out the next available bid) be called "Bidding Blockade", while the one that allows you to re-bid on the same province be called "Same-Province Re-bid". Right now, the bidding blockade card is called "outbid on same province" from what I can tell (cf. game "hooray for the sun god he sure is a fun god" round 2 phase 2). |

I think the cards are named correctly... Check that game again, one of each card was played during the last province auction. The "Outbid in the Same Province" card doesn't have any visible effect, whereas the "Bid Blockade" card played by Tedtorgerson shows the "X" in the next bidding space. |

Hmm, OK. I didn't see anything on the interface that indicated the Bidding Blockade was played except the X on the next box. Then next to the line it said "outbid in same province" so I thought that was the only one played. Maybe Bidding Blockade needs to be added to the list of cards played on that line?
Or maybe I'm just crazy and missed it. |

I think you're crazy
Well, what should have happened was that the "X" appears to indicate the blockade, but also in the Player Summary "Bid Blockade" should have been listed next to the player that played it. For "Outbid", there's no graphical indication, but it also should have been listed in the Player Summary. Of course, there's always the chance something didn't work quite right.
I guess I could include some sort of icon on top of the bid marker for players who've played the "Outbid" card... |

I THINK what happened was that the X appeared, but the Bid Blockade did not show next to the player, but the "Overbid" did, so I assumed only one card had been played and the Overbid was named wrong. |
