La fiesta me gusta!
Do you think that the random-flavors will increase strategy or decrease it? |

where is me gusta tacos when you need him?
it will decreases strategy, in regards to using switcheroos (now pointless)
it makes the hardest medal to get fav flava (without using modies)
but in the top bracket, all thats changed is people who used to power out fav flava by last minute pistachio or lemon runs.
a dedicated player will still win with mins, and maybe max Pickled Dickbutt edited this message on 06/05/2008 9:17PM |

I don’t know about the amount of strategy required, but it does make getting Fave Flava less likely to ruin your chances of getting Min. Scoops or vice versa. |

Won’t the modies also get you random scoops regardless of what you pick? The original post about the theme said something along the lines of “regardless of how they’re earned”.
It’ll be interesting when we all start playing them at the end of the week. Log in to see images! |

Anybody find that it’s difficult to get a partiuclar flavor. I haven’t gotten 1 pistachio, but plenty of vanilla. |

I kind of like this week. It’s somehow more exciting, since you never know which flavas you’ll be getting. Though, for some reason I just keep getting Antifreeze. Maybe it’s a sign. Log in to see images! |

I got plenty of Antifreeze and Vanilla this week, so I ain’t complaining about it.
Only thing that sucks is that I’m being obnoxiously unlucky with Gamblebot today, so I’m potentially losing one card per day. |

For some reason, I get mostly antifreeze. Pretty good since I usually can’t afford antifreeze and have to MI it. |

With fiesta being over, maybe it’s time for exchanging our experiences with it? To me, fiesta didn’t change a thing. I carded down, bumholed my team (Giant Turd), shielded and modestly improved at the end. The flava of scoops I got was completely meaningless for my strategy, which is similar to the strategy used by most of the serious domination players.

I did a similar thing. I liked it, though. The Fiesta was exciting and random.
It might not have changed strategy, but it certainly was fun. Not even that fun really, but it’s one of those psychological things that makes you happy even though it’s totally meaningless. |

I found it to be highly helpful. I had too many commitments to attend raids last week (I showed up late to one smaller one, that netted me around 35 scoops.) On angstcity, I was able to take all 4 medals in my bracket by finishing up my pistachio loop and using the modests and shields I’d collected via regular pwning and gambling. I ended up using 10 modests that I didn’t need to use, so the Fiesta distribution of the scoops effectively eliminated the need for me to use any cards gained from raiding.
Another of my characters just ran 12 guaranteed 3 scoop visits and picked up 2 medals even though I didn’t even look at the character again after running visits. This was pure luck, if anyone had bothered they could have easily taken me out, but I wouldn’t have had a chance at all if I’d had to worry about scoop distribution and switcharoos.
If the scoops had fallen differently, that might not have been the case, but without the Fiesta week I certainly wouldn’t have been able to medal with the second character. |
