BlogNomic: The First Dynasty of Desertfrog

I added text to make sure that we’re not switching Move mechanics in the middle of the current Ongoing Race. I’m hopeful that Race 1 will be over before this enacts, but if not, I can re-propose. I just wanted to see what everyone else thought about this idea.

The “All Snails whose positions are not greater than the Finish Line have made at least 1 Move in this Ongoing Race since the last time they performed a Draw” is broken:
- Non-Slug Snails count towards this, so no one will be able to Draw after their first Move because of Slingshot Sam
- Similarly, dead Snails also count, meaning once someone dies the condition is never met
- The “they” is ambiguous: does it refer to the Snail doing the Drawing, or the Snails who are before the finish line? I assume it’s the first, but it probably needs clarification or I could argue that I can just keep drawing and moving forever if everyone else has Moved since they last Drew
- Even if all this is fixed, we’ll be waiting quite a while for the last Snail to Move before we can Draw again, so I’d personally change it to one or two Snails instead of every Snail
Regardless I like the cards idea and we can just pass-and-fix, so

mild , I don’t like employing RNG to decide your moveset here

could definitely be tweaked to alleviate that concern somewhat but I think a universal moveset would just be neater

I’m a bit worried about this part:
“A non-Slug Snail may Draw only when there is an Ongoing Race and at least one of the following is true:
* That Snail has not yet made any Moves in the Onging Race.”

It sounds like people would stay on the Starting Line even longer, waiting to see what moves others will draw

I mean we still have Slug of Death so eventually people will make a move.

Alright, I’m going to withdraw this because it seems to be a little unpopular plus the flaws already pointed out.

I’ll go back to the drawing board and try to think of something else.
