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: Corey Konieczka vs Kevin Wilson

Definitely the thinnest of margins, but I'll vote Corey K, if only for Battlestar Galactica.


VOTE: COREY KONICHIWA

These are both very similar in every way, so I'm just going to take my favorite game from the list of their games and that will be the winner. Out of that list Game of Thrones is my favorite, so...

Vote: Kevin Wilson.

That's what I hoped would happen. A tight contest is always more interesting, especially if the contestants are not too similar

Am I crazy, or is this a primarily Christian Peterson design?

You're not crazy. It lists him first of two (the other being, of course, Kevin.)

Very tough. Both have huge hits (Rune Wars, Shattered Empires, Warrior Knights VS Fury of Dracula) and some big bombs too (BSG, Starcraft, Doom)


You may not like it, but I think using the term bomb for BSG and even Starcraft is a bit extreme. Many designers can only dream of having to endure being known for such "bombs".

Let's use the umpire intermission for a quick update on voting returns:

this race is as close as it's going to be, Kevin leading by a single vote over Corey. Will this one go to the tie breaker? Don't make me make that call, guys!

But most of all, keep voting!

I'm voting for Kevin.

I already did, but I have a split personality, as my punk-ass 9 year old just realized after coming home and tormenting her 2-year old sister, and thus I feel entitled to 2 votes.

This ain't Kentucky. It's a silly place.

Then my wife and our unborn child vote Cory to counter Pete's vote. The Doom dice are awesome and a big influence on the Earth Reborn dice, clearly, but Cory still wins for his awesome variety of original designs. I'd play Runewars and BSG before anything from Kevin (even his re-prints) and I'd play Mansions before Decent or Doom.

2 more Cory's

Your split personalties both vote the same.. boring! The other one should vote for Bush or something just to be different.

Who's Barnes voting for? That's the real mystery. Also Skelly? mjl?

I'd like to guess.

Barnes: Cory for sure, no contest I think he hates every Wilson original and seems to like Cory a lot. BSG alone might do it.

Skelly: Kevin but I'm not as sure. His love for Decent is well know and I think Doom introduced him back into hobby gaming (this is from my memory of his GotW thread) but his one review is Starcraft and he loved Mansion it sounds like so who knows.

Mj: would refuse to vote and dislikes both. Might vote Kevin out of spite just because he was involved in old games. You know that Mj isn't old but just wished he was. I mean really old.

Actually this would make for a fun trash dome. The one new rule, you have to vote as someone else.
