45K Challenge:
Citaat:
In the playtesting stage of this game we had briefly looked at adding a scoring system to the game. That got dropped. But I still think that the idea has some merit especially when it is coupled with another idea to completely remove the random elements of the game in "Challenge Scenarios". Challenge Scenarios allow scoring to compare results between games and even different groups - what is the best way to maximize scores knowing exactly the results of all the die rolls in the game.
Kevin has taken it upon himself to develop a virtual series of "Challenge Scenarios" in the form of a "Firefighters Academy". There will be four such challenges, each of which will have a non-random set of pre-determined die rolls. Record your moves, look up your die rolls and at the end of your turn and when/if you win, determine your score at the end. You can even run a scenario multiple times to see if you can improve your scores.
In fact to make this extra special I'll run a contest, the person that submits the highest documented score for each of 4 four scenarios will win a prize, not sure what it would be exactly, but maybe a gift certificate for $50 in games, Indie Boards and Cards game package, or something like that.
And for everyone that wants Kickstarter only exclusives, this would be a kickstarter only exclusive. Only kickstarter supports would be eligible to win one of these 4 prizes. I hope this is enough to get us the $412.30 we need to hit $45K! And more importantly I hope you'll like my crazy scheme to buy time.
