StijnDW Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 (edited) Just to make sure : solo play and modern scoring rules? Edited November 3, 2015 by StijnDW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roadrunner Posted November 4, 2015 Author Share Posted November 4, 2015 (edited) Just to make sure : solo play and modern scoring rules? Yeah, 1 player game select oracle then oracle off, it should show a modern score after the game is over. This game has never been played in this HSC. If i'm not scoring it right or if we should use a different game mode let me know Edited November 4, 2015 by roadrunner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StijnDW Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 1,131 is my current high score.Anyone any particular strategies to share ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadPricey Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Damn you StijnDW ? what do I have to do to beat you! I used no real strategy as such. My aim was to get rid of as many tiles as possible not expecting to place them all down. Something happened though when I place one of the tiles down, some kind of combo sound played and gave me 50 points. I couldn't even tell you what I did to get that. I think I'll give it another go and try to do better. Well done StijnDW ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roadrunner Posted November 12, 2015 Author Share Posted November 12, 2015 What's the max score for this game mode?It seems like 3 of you have to be close to it.We might end up with a tie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StijnDW Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 My score should not represent anything special since it was achieved on my 6th attempt or so.I always try to set up the board so that a stone in the middle is possible but some luck is involved concerning the order the stones are dealt You can't always get what you want A serious attempt at this game would involve writing down all the stones already dealt and adapt your strategy accordingly.But I would not consider that any fun ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.BAZ Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 (edited) 1,076 Well-made game, I'm impressed.I've been stacking up by color in the corners, trying for combos. To get the four-way combo you have to mix up the colors tho. I'm failing at that so far, but I think that's probably what gave you the 50pts, BadPricey 1 placement = 1pt.2-way connect = 2 pts.3-way = 4pts.4-way = ??? (50pts?)edit: "Wild Horses" keep draggin' me away... Edited November 16, 2015 by S.BAZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.BAZ Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 ok it's definitely placing a stone in the middle of 4 stones that gives you a bunch of points. I've noticed once it gave me 40 pts., once it gave me 80 pts. so there may be something you can do to make that difference. the 3-way connection I also noticed does this. once I saw it give me 4 pts., once 8 pts. going for the 4-way combos makes the game a lot more complex. I've gotten so I can make 1 or 2 but haven't succeeded in finishing after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadPricey Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 I've noticed that once I apply a strategy to the game I do not finish it. I think I'll try again later without trying to think too hard about it. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
