Another little quiz question.. but really easy
What is the most (pool) damage that can be done with 1 vote action, including modifiers?
The answer's not so hard, but fun.

Well, during a game in Bochum some years ago, I witnessed a situation once, where one player lost about 22 pool, and was ousted, due to a single vote action...
And no, that vote did not depend on the number of players in the game...
And yes, I will later post what happened in the game...

Depends I would say Reigns of Power!Tobias wrote:What is the most (pool) damage that can be done with 1 vote action, including modifiers?

But if you take Parity Shift that would mean doing a ten pool Shift in the game (take 5 pool from Methusaleh x and give 5 poolto Methusaleh y)

Elder kindered Network was not allowed. He said "modifiers" not reactions. But of course Reigns of Power combined with Scorn of Adornis is better.Tobias wrote:Elder kindred network?

I know, I know, I was just referring to Hardy's example. Whether one of those cards was used for the 22.Andreas Nusser wrote:Elder kindered Network was not allowed. He said "modifiers" not reactions.

And I've come to realise the answer is more difficult than I thought... which is cool.

Someone has a deck with 90 Thin-Blooded Seers, played them all, and I call Anarchist Uprising.Tobias wrote:What is the most (pool) damage that can be done with 1 vote action, including modifiers?
The answer's not so hard, but fun.
Business Pressure on any vote can make unlimited "pool loss" in an endless game where everybody has bloated, well, endlessly.
Someone has an infinite crypt (Well, choose any number. It's legal to play that many vampires). Yong Sun burned them all (it took a while...). Then someone calls Mark of the Damned.

Re: Another little quiz question.. but really easy
Oh, and I like your endlessly bloating comment. I thought of several tricks to get all players to infinite pool, but just using the edge and a LOT of patience will do it. But that means automaticcaly that any quiz question that does not have a time limit will have to take infinite pool resources into account.the scavenger wrote:Someone has a deck with 90 Thin-Blooded Seers, played them all, and I call Anarchist Uprising.Tobias wrote:What is the most (pool) damage that can be done with 1 vote action, including modifiers?

"Pool - it's much less rare than library cards...

Of course, that leads into the quiz question of: "how many cards can you play with 1 deck?" - which is also infinite, due to waste management operation.
Good thing there's a 2 hour limit on those games.

Re: Another little quiz question.. but really easy
Actually, in a tournament legal game, this isn't true, as White Wolf has not printed an infinite number of vampires.the scavenger wrote:Someone has a deck with 90 Thin-Blooded Seers, played them all, and I call Anarchist Uprising.Tobias wrote:What is the most (pool) damage that can be done with 1 vote action, including modifiers?

Which makes the answer to the question a whole lot more strange than expected, though.
