6 Board Game Trivia Q's to Stump You [#9] - Lost In The Shuffle

0:00 Today we're going to find out if my winning streak at viewer submitted board game trivia is going to hold out.

0:06 Is one win considered a streak also lost in the shuffle.

0:15 You know Paula.

0:17 Yeah, Chaz.

0:18 Ever since I won our most recent edition of viewer submitted board game trivia, my life has started to turn around.

0:24 Mine has gone really to pot.

0:26 You don't say. Yeah. Oh, I've been sleeping on some cardboard that I had to steal from a break dancer. Got a lot of like foot dents in it from the dance scene, but that's okay. I mean, it's better than nothing. And um I could go home. Like, I kicked myself out because of my shame. There's really no reason.

0:45 Ah, I just I found a seafood coupon on the bottom of a shoe box. But

0:50 man, you have all the luck. Well, let's see if that luck's going to hold out in another edition of viewer submitted board game trivia.

0:57 All viewer submitted all the time.

0:59 And you know what we're going to do?

1:00 What?

1:01 We're going to give you a chance to redeem yourself.

1:03 Oh my goodness. Thank you. I can finally change out of these pajamas. Start living a life I'm proud of again.

1:10 It is the dream.

1:12 I like your snazzy look here.

1:13 Oh, thank you. I sold a bunch of cardboard to a breakdancer and I went out and I got this jacket with it. As always, we can never play the same game of viewer submitted board game trivia quite twice.

1:23 It is not legal.

1:25 No. So,

1:26 and we are nothing if not rules followers.

1:29 Mhm.

1:30 So, we must not break the law.

1:31 Never. Never. How did you get the cardboard for your little shanty?

1:36 I had to like wrestle it away from him.

1:38 Okay. At knife point,

1:39 there was an altercation just like the daggers. I was shooting them out of my eyes. So,

1:44 well, that is definitely something for me to think about during my next caviar bath. Well, why don't you rustle up yourself through any means possible? 10 little chips.

1:53 Got them. We are nothing if not rules followers. Oh,

2:00 okay.

2:01 We will each start with 10 chips. I say we could roll this d20 and let fate determine how much of our chips we wager. Fate. I say

2:13 this is such a chaz way to play this game. Okay. Yes. We have a 50% chance of rolling on here more than we're starting with.

2:21 That is a question most sublime, my friend. That's how wellto-do people speak, I'm told. If you would wager more chips than you have, then you don't bust, but your opponent gains that many.

2:35 That's right. Who submitted our questions today? Which viewer or Zers? Today's questions are from six different viewer orers. The first of them being from cabbage king.

2:47 Hello cabbage king.

2:49 A fellow king. Oh, nice to see you. You sinus. We have king as in winner of chips and cabbage as to what you have been eating for dinner the last three nights.

3:01 It's tough when you don't have any chips. Um, what question does Cabbage King have for us?

3:07 Thusly. That's a word. Which of these card games does not include trick taking? Is it A best candy on the block? B. The farmer and the deal.

3:22 Oh, because of the Dell. I get it. The farmer and the Dell.

3:25 Mhm.

3:26 If you say it really, Farmer and the Deal.

3:29 You know, it all sound the same.

3:31 Got it.

3:32 I get it. C. Ooro or D hund

3:36 which is dog in German.

3:39 It's one of the about five German words I know.

3:42 Learn something every day.

3:43 You know what else we're about to learn?

3:45 What we're bidding

3:46 what we're bidding.

3:47 I'm glad I don't have to decide because I don't know the answer to this question.

3:53 I rolled a four, everyone. A big four. That is pretty typical for my dice luck. Uh, but in this case, I think it's actually probably good luck. I will say, "Oh, bother." I'll say that.

4:09 Well, here's my thinking.

4:10 Mhm.

4:12 Best candy on the block sounds like a trick-taking game because you're collecting the best candy on the block.

4:18 Come on, man. Farmer in the deal. They put a card specific phrase right there in the name of the game. Got to be a trick they can get.

4:27 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, that leaves us between Hoot and Abero. I'm pretty sure that you were going to choose Hoot. I didn't want any of your lossory stink to rub off on me. So, I chose Abor.

4:38 What's fun is I didn't choose Hunt because I thought best candy on the block sounded like it might be more like set collection

4:45 than trick taking.

4:47 Though, your logic also holds and I was like, I don't know. That's definitely you're collecting something in that. So, it's either through tricktaking or some other means. So, I could be super wrong. But I agree with you about farmer and the deal.

4:59 You do

4:59 the deal.

5:00 Deal.

5:02 Best candy on the block probably is trick taking because it's like Halloween trick or treat and you're taking the candy. I'm such an idiot.

5:09 That's not true. That doesn't mean you're right. But let's find out if we have a deal because the last answer, the right answer is farmer and the deal.

5:19 We were so wrong.

5:20 Wow.

5:21 We were both like, "No, we agree. We can't agree on anything else, but we agree that that one definitely has trick taking.

5:28 Okay, so I didn't get it right. As a result, we are both down four with question number one. Let's continue on to question number two. Question number two comes from viewer and friend of the show and aircon compatriate Drew Albbright.

5:46 Hi Drew. This game inspired Uve Rosenberg to create Nova Luna and was influential enough that Rosenberg asked the creator's permission and gave the creator a design credit for borrowing a mechanic. No, I'm rolling again

6:04 if you'd like.

6:06 Two.

6:07 Two. All right. So, we are wagering two chips.

6:10 Okay. Here are our options. A. Is it factory fun? B. Framework. C. Sagani or D habitats.

6:21 You know when I was at the successful people's club

6:24 I should have asked Uve Rosenberg what the answer

6:28 is a member of that club 100%.

6:29 Absolutely. I snuck in under the fence but while I was there I should have asked him that question.

6:33 You should have.

6:34 Mhm.

6:35 I know to that I think it is not. I don't believe it's Framework or Sagani because I think Uve Rosenberg

6:45 designed those games.

6:47 Since I am currently the tycoon in this situation, I think that we've all learned that I can do whatever I want and I can make my own rules. So, I'll tell you this. I did choose framework, one of the two games you think it's not. So,

6:59 I could be wrong.

7:01 If you're right, I'll double your winnings. One victory and you are just really it's gone to your head.

7:10 One victory and you finally noticed.

7:14 I have selected an answer. I hope it wasn't designed by Uve Rosenberg because that would destroy my supposed logic for the other answers I took. I chose D. Habitats. Did Uve Rosenberg design habitats?

7:28 So if you're right, I'm giving you four chips. Is that too?

7:32 I hope I'm right. The answer is habitatus. Habitats D

7:39 for chips. I shouldn't accept, but I will.

7:42 Oh, don't worry. Don't worry. I have plenty of chips to back me up. And if I run low, I'll just embezzle some of my chip stock options and I'll be good to go again.

7:53 Perfect. Yes.

7:54 Mhm.

7:56 Let's us move on to the question that's next. I think maybe three, but probably

8:02 I believe it is question number three.

8:04 Fantastico. This question comes from Kirk Wagner, who asks us to solve the following riddle. In the original edition of Dungeons and Dragons, your character could not be one of the following races. Was it A a human, B an elf, C a halfling, or D a sturdy dwarf?

8:33 So, we're talking like first edition original edition Dungeons and Dragons, like TSR, like Theo, which actually isn't the original edition. I think it came out after. I'm trying to because I don't know the answer, and I should. But I'm trying to show you all the things I do know about original Dungeons and Dragon. Trying to build up some cred.

8:55 In the spirit of Dn D, here's a d20 to roll.

8:59 Come on, natural 20. I got a natural one, y'all. I got a one.

9:06 That's about as uh away from a natural 20 as you can get.

9:10 I think it's this for a Trixie reason. Hm. Well, the other week when I was at yacht practice, the the fellows and I were were talking talking about these different uh various character classes.

9:24 And I think that my hunch,

9:29 whatever. Who knows? That's the end of my story. Human, you got to have

9:37 you got to have a human. I agree. Human is in there. But halfling, I think, was invented later by combining two other races because people wanted more.

9:47 I feel like halfling was originally just called a hobbit and then at one point they were told they couldn't do that because that's Tolken and so they had to change it to halfling and so you couldn't be a halfling because it wasn't called a halfling

10:00 or I've made that up.

10:02 Always an option. Well, I did go with halfling.

10:05 I also went with halfling

10:07 and but I think we went with it for different reasons. did. We sure did.

10:11 What two races do you feel like were combined to make a halfling?

10:16 Dwarf and a human. Elf and a human. It's a gnome and a bucket of wood.

10:26 A gnome and a bucket of wood. Sounds like you're you're going to have one gnome full of a lot of splinters and not much else to show for it. Honestly, don't give Chad sugar.

10:37 Oh, no. The donuts, the donuts that we ate last episode are kicking in. The actual unincluded race is halfling.

10:47 You were right, but we don't know who had the right reason.

10:51 Do you know the answer? Leave it in the comments below. And that's how we're going to learn cuz we are not going to look it up now because we want the engagement. You should have more than that, shouldn't you?

11:00 I'm pretty sure I had four.

11:01 I think you should have one more cuz if it was right there and you got it, you should have gotten an extra one.

11:06 Watch this. This is what they call rich person swagger. I'll just go into this one with four.

11:15 You're crazy.

11:17 Crazy like a halfling. My dad was a human. My mother a bucket of wood.

11:24 Checks out. Honestly, it really does.

11:28 Question next comes from Mr. Anderson.

11:31 Oh, Mr. Anderson. Thank you.

11:33 And you have to say it like that. Yes. Mr. Anderson. Mr. Anderson

11:37 Mr. Anderson with three G's asks us which of these games didn't have a big old box edition. Was it Legendary, a Marvel deck building game or Katon or Terrammystica or Alejandra?

12:01 Feel like I can make a semi-educated guess on this one. Haha.

12:04 Remember when I rolled a natural one after wanting to roll a 20?

12:08 Yes. Well, roll well because this is the first question this episode. I think I actually know the answer.

12:15 A nine.

12:16 I have not rolled above a 10 yet.

12:19 Oh, nine. You know what that means? We are in the you get chips if I'm wrong zone.

12:25 I like it.

12:26 Well, get used to disappointment because I think the answer is thus. Well, Alhamra, I'm pretty sure has a big box edition, though. Again, kind of. Why? It's just some tiles, right?

12:41 Do they make the tiles bigger?

12:42 Maybe. I don't know. I've only ever played that on board game arena. It's a great game, though. It is a great game. Katan, fairly certain that has a big box edition, doesn't it? Why wouldn't it? It has a bunch of expansions and stuff, so maybe there's a big box edition of Katan is the kind of game that would get one. Legendary Marvel deck building game. Why not have a big box edition? There's so many cards that can all fit in the box. But Terrammystica, why would that have a big box? It's just Terrammystica. What do you think it is?

13:15 I now think it is something other than what I answered. Uh because I am pretty darn confident that Alejandra has a big box edition.

13:23 Yeah.

13:24 Terrammystica. I'm pretty sure I've seen Terrammystica's big box edition cross my news feed. Are you sure it's not just like in a box that's kind of big?

13:32 Sure.

13:33 I mean, maybe it does have a big box.

13:34 So, are we talking about semantics here? It has to be labeled as such. Is that the world that we now live in?

13:39 It must be labeled big box edition.

13:42 My goodness.

13:43 Cuz otherwise, Gloom Haven just has one automatically. You know what I mean? M I was confident in my answer until you mentioned how many expansions Katon has because I chose that as the one without

13:56 it might not have had one

13:58 but I realized that Marvel Legendary has just had a metric ton of expansions. No big box, just expansions.

14:07 Yeah, maybe it doesn't have a big box. Maybe it's just like, hey, here's just a bunch of cards. Mhm.

14:14 Get them in all their separate boxes.

14:17 We could both be wrong.

14:18 We could.

14:18 It could be a

14:19 could be a Well, let's find out what letter it actually is. That letter being the letter A. It is legendary.

14:29 My chips.

14:31 Always always second guess yourself, Marlor.

14:34 Always.

14:35 That was nine. And I you lose nine. But I can't cover nine. So you get either the number of chips you have or the difference whichever is larger. That way you're always coming out ahead.

14:48 Five chips for me even though I got it wrong.

14:52 So going into our penultimate question I have for reasons unknown. Four

14:59 and I have six. Seven. I have seven.

15:03 Oo. So it's really anybody's game.

15:05 It truly is.

15:06 All right. Question number this comes from Tantarilus,

15:13 who you can find on Twitch, twitch.tv/tenturalis. Go check them out streaming board games. Is a great guy. I like him.

15:20 Yes. And just a few weeks ago, Tantarilus streamed like a 12hour Twitch stream for charity.

15:28 That's pretty awesome.

15:29 Quite quite. So yes, go check that out. And Paula, indulge us with Tantarus's question. Which of the following games is co-designed and illustrated by the artist of Carcassone?

15:41 A.

15:42 Tan. I just said nice things about you and you're giving us a bunch of words I don't know how to say.

15:46 I am this close to retracting everything I just said. A plur I think this was on purpose.

15:55 Baligel a cbake.

16:02 Albbach and D leer lava. These are definitely um just all German, I think. And I'm sorry for my German. The only word I can say properly in German is h

16:14 11.

16:14 11.

16:15 We don't have 11 chips.

16:17 Oh, this is going to be interesting then.

16:18 So,

16:19 especially since

16:22 Okay, if I was

16:23 I'm going to translate these. I think we should know what these are in English.

16:27 Sure. That's going to clear right up.

16:31 Oh, okay. Okay, the top one's not translating, but the second one,

16:34 hedgehog annoy.

16:35 Hedgehog annoy. Ouch. Um, what was it like? Taste delicious lava.

16:42 Yeah,

16:43 the top one is not properly translating. Thank you, Google. Translate.

16:47 Well, then that's got to be it. That's got to be the answer. The untransatable one.

16:52 I think I'm choosing C because that means ouch. And I feel like the way when I picture the game Ouch, I feel like I can see it having been illustrated by the same person who did Carazone.

17:03 Oo.

17:04 So, let's find out.

17:05 Maybe that I'll let that be my guide. Or, you know, I'm wrong.

17:10 Well, here we go. Ouch. It's not.

17:13 It was the annoy hedgehog or whatever it was.

17:16 Annoying hedgehog.

17:17 Hedgehog annoy.

17:18 Annoy hedgehog annoy. So, that means I bet I have 11 on the table. So, I have four, which means you win seven.

17:26 I would net seven, but I have seven on the table, so you net four.

17:32 All right. Are you ready?

17:36 I'm ready.

17:36 All right. This last question of the episode comes from viewer, fellow YouTuber, and friend of the show, Roland Reggie.

17:45 Hey, Rolling Reggie. Thank you for the question.

17:47 Yes. From the YouTube channel Roland Reggie.

17:50 Go check them out.

17:51 Mhm. Very cool stuff. And this one is this is this one. This is

17:57 this is the one.

17:58 This is the one that goes like this. As the resident bird watcher board gamer, this question has to do with bird themed games.

18:06 I like it. I like where it's going.

18:07 It's an intro and everything.

18:08 I like it. That's because he's a professional.

18:10 Yeah, it's very well structured. Which of the following games is not a board game according to boardamegeeek.com, the ultimate database website? So, like one of those games cannot be found on BGG.

18:25 I'm thinking that might be the case.

18:28 Interesting.

18:30 Is it A Falcon's Perch, B Fly Home, C Ducks and Tow, or D Songbirds?

18:42 Oh, yes. Roll the bones. 19.

18:46 Natty 19, baby. Well, I think we both know one of these the answer is not.

18:51 I think three of these I know the answer is not.

18:55 Oh no.

18:56 I'm going to read up my

18:57 I really don't want to lose, but I don't know the answer.

19:01 Would you like to hear my reasoning?

19:03 I would love to.

19:03 Ducks in tow.

19:05 I have your copy of this game.

19:06 I Yes, I know it's a game because I got a copy of it and then you mentioned just coincidentally a few days later, h I wanted to get a copy of Ducks and Toe. So, I gave you my copy.

19:16 You sent it to me. Yeah, it was great. Songbirds.

19:19 Mhm.

19:19 I think is also known under another name of Peepm.

19:23 Oh.

19:23 Is a little card game. So, and Peep Motss I've played and enjoyed and I it was out of print for a long time.

19:30 Okay. Okay. Okay.

19:31 Fly Home is such just a open-ended generic name. Could be any game. It's got to be some game, right?

19:40 So, did you say a Falcon's Perch?

19:42 That leaves us with Falcon's Perch. Oh,

19:46 I also said, "Hey, Falcons."

19:48 Oh, no. Wait, no.

19:50 For mo much of the same reason as you did.

19:52 Oh, I win.

19:56 I can't lose. Clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose. Fly away home. Check the answer, Chaz. Check the answer.

20:05 It is indeed.

20:06 I win.

20:07 It is Falcon's purge.

20:09 It is Falcon's perch. You know,

20:11 it just feels right. You know, when you know, you know. you know, have some pajamas.

20:15 Yeah, Falcon's Perch just reminds me too much of the uh '8s

20:19 soap opera Falcon's Crest. It's too soon. They're probably still policing that IP, so there's no way that they would let someone make a board game that close to Falcon's Crest.

20:28 Well, Reggie, I will see you down in yacht school.
