What else can i say - a teleport event teleporting me to the end.
It happens.
Once it happened to the first tile after the start.
I have some words for this. But alas Im pretty sure they are on the other side of that line im looking for
Oh wait i got it
to quote Col. Potter
HORSE HOCKEY!!!!
Ya I stopped taking transport tiles after it happened to me..they are mostly grief anyway.
How about a block tile right off the bat?
=)
Worst part was i was hoping to get a 800 score just before i took that teleport event with 39 moves left and 280 score. Pity that code of the game where it is excellently tweeked to piss off players.
So why did you tale the teleport?
Well a teleport gives you 5 points and if i am lucky enough i might land on hard boss tile which can give me 20 points - which can result in 25 points from one move. - Greedy/optimist player you know.Quote:

I only use it when I need to get out of a bad position and one is handy.
thanks andy will keep that in mind :)
Yes, but he hadn't explored a significant percentage of the Lab.
It was a perfectly reasonable move, it just bit him in the posterior this time. Had it happen to me twice. Once after I got a +8 moves with no negatives. Only move I had in that case was either through a teleporter or through two empty squares due to blocked squares. That was ... painful.
oh that happen to me also.
In my experience a teleport with that much of the lab explored is counterproductive. Not only can you end up in a dead tile, but in an are of the map you do not want to be, like the unexplored area in the top left in the picture. In my opinion the risk is not worth the extra 5 points.Quote:

The worst ones are getting surrounded by a bunch of destinies and getting boxed in and not being able to make it. The worst was 400 points at 20 moves left and a boat load of destinies that ate up all my moves, since I didn't want to waste gems.
