[POKER] Rewards & the Shape of the Game

[ThaJinx]

Thanks much, Krystyn. Can't wait until you break through and grab a red skull for yourself

I have to agree, there really is a good sense of balance to the way a person is able to actively participate in this game. The Social Ladder really has taken on an entirely separate life from the one it led in the first three weeks of the game, mostly because the strategy and approach towards it has changed as radically. I'm going to have to agree with you on the Small Favors being a favorite part of the game, far and above; on a basic level it's gotten me to explore Boise a little further regarding both its physical layout and its history, and - given some of the things I've had to deal with personally in the past year - they've sort of affirmed the measure of peace a person can strive to take following the death of a loved one.

I appreciate a game that can craft a system of play that "rewards" players by opening it up to multiple areas of talent. It's definitely a welcome spin on player recognition.

EDIT: Congrats, Krystyn! Told you you'd have it by day's end!

Congrats to both of you! I'm so proud *sniff*!

Congratz to the both of you. *is so damned proud to even be on the social leaderboard* And your right, it does play to peoples strengths. As apparently I suck at online poker (though IRL, my friends fear me), and I know I'll never get a card, I can't shut my mouth at tables. So yay for being a jabbermouth. Heh.

Bahahah, Nos, I always consider you a welcome presence when I've seen you - it breaks up the monotony of "u suck," and "hehehhhhehhh krystin i am lookin down your dres".

The marriage proposals from Romania continue to be amusing, though.
