ffs - will everyone stop banging on about who goes first. Some always has to go first.
In any sequential game with over 3 players, it's fairer. you can place and not take a card if you want to jumble up who gets what cards when.

I love both styles equally.

No, not in freestyle. Everyone can go at the same time. So no, someone doesn't always have to go first, which does give quite an advantage in 1v1's.

sequential... so that i can prevent my games from being sabotaged by the slightest defect in loading time

nrs 1,2,4,5,6 of this site are freestyle players. All great players or is something wrong with freestyle?

i hate Freestyle it sucks! Sequential can be a bit of a bummer if your in a game with 6 players who ALL wait 20 hours to take their shots in turn That is my personal preference.. different styles of play suit different people

I prefer to play freestyle. It's a lot quicker and easier to win (or lose).

I play sequential, but would play freestyle if I weren't gone 12 hours a day. Then I could sit there and wait for the perfect moment on every game. But life must go on and I can't stand missing a steal opportunity or a win cause I wasn't there lurking in the shadows of freestyle.

Nice subtle dig....


I can play either one- excelled at both, seq and speed, some would say. Casual freestyle is another animal in itself although I've done ok in it too. Both Sj and Poo, played seq esc as well.

Maybe it's because Freestyle games finish earlier (specially with lots of players) and they can win more points.

I think Freestyle and escalating don't go along well. There is a moment in the game when the first one to play the turn will get the cards from the weak player, and the big army bonus.

For Flat Rate and No Cards, Freestyle seems to be ok, and even better because you are guaranteed a turn every 24 hours.

speed:
FS

Casual:
Seq

Playing n00bs:
FS/Seq
