Sequence of escalating card values?

by **Army of GOD** on Thu Apr 15, 2010 12:23 am

I get the beginning of the sequence goes 4, 6, 8, 10...but after that? Is there a formula?

by **ljex** on Thu Apr 15, 2010 1:06 am

4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 20 and then it goes up by 5 after that

by **natty dread** on Thu Apr 15, 2010 1:19 am

You didn't have to say "20" there. It goes up by 5 after 15.

The real funny thing is, after 12 it goes briefly up by 3. Just one time. Why the lone 3 between those 2:s and 5:s ?

Sir, ah, K, thanks.

Maybe they realized that it'd be easier in terminator games if they just went up by fives, but they had already written "12" in non-erasable pen, so they tried to pull a fast one. Sir.

Because they didnt like 17...and when they though about 14,they said why not 1 more?

Why not start the cashes from 5, then go up by 2 until 15, then go up by 5... 5,7,9,11,13,15,20...It would have been more logical imo. But I guess CC just copied the cash numbers from the board game that shall not be spoken of

Its quite easy for them to get high in stale freestyle escalating games. Also i remember sitting for someone where they were just making them go up and up, they were at 1000+ in a 1 vs 1 game.

Perhaps the site should add a special game option: Island spoils, with cards worth 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, and 42, repeat ad nauseum.

Yes, and if you don't cash them in regularly your bonuses blow up!

Ah, but then you start slipping through time and seeing how other players will die.
