True story: I went to a wedding a couple weeks ago. At the reception, everything was decorated with paper cranes. Me and about 20 other people hung a little over 2500 of them from the ceiling. Even the cake was covered with them.

[Solifuge]

So now we can give cards to other players, in hopes that they target us back. Nevertheless, I'm prepared to moderate this a bit.

I play Various Nonsense on ExKirby.

(Click to make more biggish)

[GlyphGryph]

Wow, game reset much?

Well, everything is in the VN pile now, which means no one has anything.... soooooooo....

This turn is essentially over.

For the purposes of things making some iota of sense, I will keep the "hand" cards and "in play" cards in the various nonsense pile separate, and they will be returned as hand cards and in play cards respectively.

The problem I have with that is that the card very clearly says to INCREASE the number of points by half on a 5. If you just multiply by 1.5 then it actually DECREASES the points value. Especially seeing how a roll of 2 does the exact opposite of a 5, decreases your score by half.

Yes, but you're increasing by a negative score, so your final total is more negative points. Like, if the value of, say, a -300 point card was doubled, it would be worth -600 points. Except this is on a player.

In slightly worse news, Various nonsense doesn't effect Floating Points, which is the only things that remain with people at this junction

But here's the thing: The card specifically says to INCREASE it. just multiplying by 1.5 DECREASES it and thus violates the card. Plus, its a RTD. rolling a 5 is supposed to benefit you.

Besides, I can honestly say I've never played a game where, when someone increased a negative number by a factor, we actually made the number even smaller

[ExKirby]

Regardless, End Turn.

The temperature outside is -5 degrees. Now I increase the cold. See?

Anyhow, game reset suits me fine except that I had the most points.

Are all card abilities and targets "reset" as well? So the lock on the crime and politics no longer applies? And the Copycat is no longer an Orchids? I vote they keep their respective targets to decrease confusion.

End turn and pray.

[Furtuka]

End turn

[GlyphGryph]

Copycat is gone, and was replaced by Orchids... the others can just keep their same targets, sure.

Anyways, evaluating VN now... Done.
First post now reflects current game status.

Turn is over, all players are tied for the lead except Furtuka in last place. ^_^

Dealing new cards now... Cards dealt!

Round 3 start!

[Furtuka]

so have our hands been entirely replaced? or do we still have the old ones?

[GlyphGryph]

the old ones have been moved to various nonsense, as the card required. Notice the handsize of various nonsense in the op

they will be returned to the game should it ever be destroyed... you know. I think this card is absolutely hilarious, and such a wonderful analogy.

1. Lots of crazyness happens.
2. That crazyness and a lot of the potential for more is all locked away in a single place
3. Slowly, more crazyness is added (spillover?)
4. Finally, VN is destroyed, and all the crazyness spills out! It's just like before BUT WORSE! ohnoes!
5. lolz

[Siquo]

You have no hand, it's in the VN pile until that card gets destroyed. I misread that as well, we're really starting fresh.

Speaking of fresh, I haz a food.

I play Pizza on Myself.

[Furtuka]

I play crowbar on myself



I then play illusory demon on Siquon

[Vanigo]

For a minute there, the illusory demon wasn't loading, and I kind of wondered if you were just screwing with us. Because that would have been hilarious.

Anyway, I'm playing this on myself.

Even though it's pretty much the opposite of a hot potato.

[Aklyon]

Well, that is what it was used for originally, screwing with a town.

[GlyphGryph]

Maybe there's another card in a set somewhere that inverts the points of a card? Then it could become a REAL hot potato
