Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are your favorite alternate rules for a sport or game?
8·4 days agoThere’s a variant of the card game War called Spoils of War, or Sow, that adds some strategy:
There can be up to five cards max in a player’s reserves. These cards can be pulled out in any battle and added to the player’s fighting card. Opponants have to option to do the same, and the original player can respond. This continues until all players can’t or won’t add any more and the highest total wins.
Aces beat all face cards but lose to all number cards. In a reserve battle, aces count for eleven.
In any regular battle, any player can choose to sacrifice two facedown cards to place the fighting card into her reserves. The sacrificed cards go to the winner of that battle. If all players do this, the sacrificed cards are claimed by the winner of the next battle.
If the two highest fighting cards in are tied (a “war” in the original game), or there’s a three-way circle of Ace beats Face beats Number beats Ace, or the totals in a reserve battle are tied, those players must place five face-down cards for the winner of the next battle to claim. Only those involved in the stand-off play the next battle.
The winning player of each battle may place all cards taken in that battle at the bottom of her deck in whatever order she chooses.
Overall, it adds a bit of strategic depth while still keeping a small footprint in tablespace and setup time.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Today I saw a comment saying "Mark Carney is not center-right, he's a *liberal WEF Bilderberg globalist POS bankster*. What image do people in your country conjure up of a center-right person?

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How did you learn to ignore that one person at work who always tried to annoy you and make you react to them?
2·12 days agoBe twice as annoying back.
fourteen states void the votes of faithless elector and replace the elector
a larger number bar faithless electors but don’t have any enforcement mechanismor one only have one that affects the elector (but not the vote), making faithless electors illegal if not impossible in a majority of states
aand I’ll just point out right now that faithless elector laws don’t do anything to preserve the power of the state that passed them, only to preserve the power of the two dominant political parties
It doesn’t work at all if electors are barred from being “faithless” by law.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How would you respond to the statement "Trans women are biologically male" ?
1210·25 days ago-
“Biologically fe/male” is a pseudoscientific term created to delegitimize trans individuals, so
-
It does not matter
-
see above
-
It’s intended to be a contradiction, an insidious doubt or caveat that delegitimizes the declaration that trans individuals are who they say they are.
Don’t fall for it. Don’t perpetuate it. Delete this post, is my advice.
