Able to cash again with 4 cards

Postby Donelladan on Sat Apr 03, 2021 3:12 pm

Concise description:

I had 5 cards, cashed, eliminated one player, then I have 4 cards and I am able to cash again.

Specifics:

Zombie game.
Game 20749289


you can see that yellow cashed the turn before :
2021-04-02 05:20:27 - murphy16 received 3 troops for 4 regions
2021-04-02 05:20:43 - murphy16 played a set of Michigan, New York, and Minnesota zombifying each region
2021-04-02 05:20:47 - murphy16 deployed 3 troops on ?
2021-04-02 05:20:58 - murphy16 ended the turn
2021-04-02 05:20:58 - Incrementing game to round 8

And he didn't take a card.

I then eliminate him

2021-04-03 22:07:44 - Donelladan received 3 troops for 3 regions
2021-04-03 22:07:49 - Donelladan played a set of Indiana, Mississippi, and South Carolina zombifying each region
2021-04-03 22:07:49 - Donelladan eliminated murphy16 from the game
2021-04-03 22:10:23 - Donelladan played a set of Kentucky, Ohio, and New Jersey zombifying each region
2021-04-03 22:10:52 - Donelladan deployed 3 troops on Florida
2021-04-03 22:10:59 - Donelladan ended the turn


I had 5 cards, cashed in so I have two, then I eliminate yellow who has 2 cards, went up to 4 cards, and I was able to cash again as you can see in the log.

I dont think this is a bug - you technically hadnt started your "turn" yet as you hadnt dropped. So when you eliminated him, your turn was still in the "card phase", thus you had another set and could play it. More like a loophole than a bug.

If you elim somebody and get x amount of cards over 5 to force a cash in, you can convert as many or as little as you want to then get under 5, say you get 6 cards after an elim and both are sets you can trade one or both in at that point

Not what happened. He cashed and his cash eliminated a player so he got the cards. Because he still hadn't technically started his turn, he got to cash again because he was still in cash phase. He only had 4 cards, not 5 or 6. That's why he thought it was a bug.

Interesting. Didn't know about that. Make sense I guess.

I can see why some would think this is a loophole, but it is more of just part of the unique gameplay that comes with Nuclear/Zombie settings.
