Bugs: Recent Topics Paging, Uploading Images & Preview (11 Dec 2020)

Recent Topics paging, uploading images and preview bugs require a patch which has not yet been released.

× WELCOME TO TRASHDOME!

This is part of a series of bloody matches to the death. Show support for your favorite game so it will do better in the fight. You can support it by writing why you think its the better game and more importantly by betting (i.e. voting for) it. Please make it clear for when I check the bets later. You have until Friday when I tally the bets and declare the winner. I will reserve my bet for any tie-breakers.

Although you should be familiar with both games, there is no rule that says you have to have played both of them. The only rule in Trashdome is this;

Two games enter! One game leaves!

Trashdome: Agricola vs Zombies!!!

Overly long and monotonous farming or overly long and monotonous zed slaying. Which would you rather play?

Agricola is a brilliant game. But it's a pain in the ass to play, there's a bazillion cards and bits to screw with, and I'll never play it again until it comes to iOS and I don't have to worry about that crap anymore.

Vote: Zombies!!!

Zombies is 20$, Gric is 40$. Is Gric 2 times the fun of Zombies? NOT.

Agricola is awesome and tons of fun. I love how the tons of options bottle-neck in this game. Great feeling of agony.

Vote: Agricola

Agricola, Zombies is tedious garbage. Not Ameritrash, just trash.

I would MUCH prefer to play ZOMBIES!!! over Agricola. I hate this kind of worker placement games. I can forgive ZOMBIES!!! as it has kick ass art (which is woefully under appreciated) and dice rolling.

Ah, Agricola — isn't that Latin for "tedious"? I think it can also be used as "more over-rated than the Miami Heat." And it doesn't help that the designer is a prolapsed asshole.

Vote: Zombies.

I rate Zombies a 10 currently and as ratings are the ultimate arbiter of truth and justice, I must by extension vote

I've never played Agricola, but it doesn't sound like something I'd like. I have played and definitely hate Zombies!!!. That makes voting tough. Still, zombies surely must beat farming.

As I mentioned in another thread recently, there were 400 new zombie movies that came out in the last ten years, along with nearly 200 zombie boardgames and boardgame expansions. So I'm pretty burned out on zombies at the moment. However, I am usually happy to play a game of Zombies!!!, especially once there are several dozen zombies on spread out across a couple dozen city tiles. And I just don't like worker placement games. They are pretentious, boring, and overly similar to one another.

Vote: Zombies!!!

Zombies!!! if for no other reason that two people can't build fence on the same turn in Agricola. Ridiculous.

Agricola is one of my favorite games, still one of the best of the modern Euros. So that's a no-brainer for me.

(Hehe, just a little Zombie humor for you all to relish.)

Vote: Agricola

..but cancer sucks more!

I have to vote AGRICOLA because I think it is a better game even though I NEVER want to play that game when it comes up. I also never want to play Zombies!!! either BUT I very much like playing Zombies!!! on my smartphone and will buy it shortly for my tablet.

..then again if Agricola was available for both, I'm sure I'd buy it also...

vote: Agricola

/if this thread was open two weeks ago, I would have voted Zombies!! without a second of hesitation. It would be fun to take down one of BGG's champion games with one that seems to really bother sociopaths
