London 7th June / b4b-team2chat

Hello fellow members of Team 2

13:57

I have a feeling that strategy is going to matter quite a lot in this gamemode, anyone up for preparing one?

Hi, I think colour coding a borough map by when it's got the bonus would be a good idea to start planning a potential order to go for

1

13:54

Also what boroughs are people familiar with? So we can see what local knowledge we can draw on.

13:55

I grew up in Southwark, live in Merton, and work in Richmond, so most familiar with South West.

I don't live in the city so I can't provide any local knowledge unfortunately

16:06

I think the order we go in is going to depend quite a lot on the other teams

Having an idea of good borough clusters might not be a bad idea

16:10

I'll see if I can make a map when I get home

One potential strategy we could go for right at the start is just sprinting into Islington from Bank.

16:19

The borough borders are quite close, and we could walk straight into Hackney as well

16:22

This is a really awkward start location

16:23

We probably want to be on the east side to define when the other teams are able to claim

I have a potentially risky opening strategy. 1. Go straight up the Moorgate road from Bank to cross the borough boundary into Islington. Either run or take the bus if it goes in that direction. Claim & lock Islington. 2. Walk the 250m east to Hackney, claim & lock Hackney. 3. Walk a bit further east to Tower Hamlets, claim & lock. 4. Go to Liverpool Street or Shoreditch High Street (whichever is closer), and switch strategies to staying ahead of the wheel. Travel around claiming boroughs before the wheel reaches them, and get in a position to lock them the moment they open. (edited)

Potentially even announce our intentions to the other teams like "we're going to Islington, skip it unless you want to fight with us"

Hi, I think colour coding a borough map by when it's got the bonus would be a good idea to start planning a potential order to go for

We will also have a map provided to the players as a helpdesk; we will colour code whenever a borough is claimede or locked

I feel like there's going to be a strong incentive to go west to take Westminster, but I think if we can get ahead of the wheel we can outplay the other teams

16:51

It's difficult to tell whether this is actually a good idea in practice because there's quite a lot of boroughs to the west that are open right at the start of the game.

16:53

Tower Hamlets is also quite easy to walk to

Sifa Poulton

Also what boroughs are people familiar with? So we can see what local knowledge we can draw on.

I live in Bethnal Green, so familiar with tower hamlets and hackney

17:06

I guess it's generally good to attempt to lock boroughs that others are not attempting, this reduces the risks of wasted efforts. So we want to avoid the obvious and super convenient ones, unless we have a clear advantage

One interesting possibility under the rules is claiming boroughs outside of the wheel, and then only locking them for full points when the wheel catches up

Also convenient boroughs are very likely to be locked, so it's not worth claiming them.

17:08

Wait, does locking a borough invalidate your own claim? I think it does, since the wording is "all claims are removed"

2

17:09

So the max points for a borough that you claim and then lock is 2

ratt

One interesting possibility under the rules is claiming boroughs outside of the wheel, and then only locking them for full points when the wheel catches up

Good point

17:14

Do players know what boroughs are locked?

17:14

Or claimed

I assume claims and locks will be announced in #b4b-announcements

1

Hmm okay, then it makes the pre-claim strategy slightly less good, but we may still be able to waste some people's efforts since they'd be claiming the borough simultaneously as we are locking it, and since locking takes longer, we can still impose some wasted time on others doing this (edited)

17:17

So the strat is to go to maybe 2-3 boroughs that will activate later, do all the claiming challenges before activation, wait at the border between them just before activation, and then lock them asap.

I feel like Islington is going to be a popular start location because it is both very close to Bank, and it's also straight up the Northern line if you're going in the direction of Kings Cross

17:19

I also think it'd be a good one to claim for us though, because if we're trying to get ahead of people we are possibly going to want to go north

Wait, could we start the locking challenge say 15 min early, finish it right as the activation period starts and get 2 points?

maybe

17:23

helpdesk should probably weigh in on that one

17:23

I don't see how they could practically stop people from doing that

17:23

people are incentivised to travel to the optimal location to do the challenges anyway

@ratt a key factor is that we want to go to places that border 3 or more boroughs for the previous strategy. Assuming that we pre-claimed all of them, we can lock them asap after activation by just walking a few steps

True

17:24

I'm not sure locking challenges are that simple though

yeah, but if we lock the 1st by pre-doing the locking strategy and lock it within a few minutes, we should still have a pretty big time advantage for the next 2, especially if the third one is one that people are likely to do later

17:26

We also get information on what people are likely to lock based on what they have claimed, so if we pre-claim more boroughs, we get more flexibility on the day to react to what people are doing

Edison

Wait, could we start the locking challenge say 15 min early, finish it right as the activation period starts and get 2 points?

I think the only way they could practically stop people from doing this is by requiring teams to declare when they're starting the challenge

1

Actually this is a good point. We track other teams' locations based on their claims/locks

not sure if the challenges all allow that

The worry with the pre-claim and instant lock strategy is that it's pretty inefficient. The amount of time we spend on 2 points is much higher than if people just claim it. So it's not worth it if we don't waste other teams' time

I think announcing reduces people's time wasted. But maybe we should announce false information

17:54

Image attachment

17:54

I have a map

Edison

I think announcing reduces people's time wasted. But maybe we should announce false information

I think it's most important to reduce our time wasted, and prevent other teams going the way we're going

18:01

Where do you think we should go to start?

Here's a potential strategy: we start with Islington or Camden, claim it, we can decide whether to lock it based on whether others are doing. Then we go to the border between Haringey, barnet and Enfield, begin pre-claiming them, and try to lock them, it's nice because Enfield is 30 min after, so we can try to lock the first 2 during the activation period (assuming we start locking one early), and then start Enfield just as its activation period starts.

ratt

I think it's most important to reduce our time wasted, and prevent other teams going the way we're going

Not necessarily. We want to avoid other teams if we have no advantage, but we want to actively be in the same area as other teams if we have a head start in locking it (edited)

London Boroughs Detailed - Google My Maps

London Boroughs Detailed

The Kingston/Richmond/Merton/Wandsworth border area is around richmond park

18:05

Which is not the easiest part to get to

Sifa Poulton

The Kingston/Richmond/Merton/Wandsworth border area is around richmond park

There's not much benefit to going to the exact border anyway though, because we'll likely have to travel to do the locking challenge

But there is a giant superstore right where three of them touch

Suppose we lock a borough before a team even starts claiming it, then they just bypass the borough and claim something else, and we spent time inefficiently (since locking is slower than claiming). The optimal scenario is if we lock an area just before some other team is about to lock it. Given the pre-claiming strategy, it's quite likely that we will generally have a head start, so I think we actively want to be in the same boroughs as others

ratt

There's not much benefit to going to the exact border anyway though, because we'll likely have to travel to do the locking challenge

Good point, didn't think of that

Edison

Here's a potential strategy: we start with Islington or Camden, claim it, we can decide whether to lock it based on whether others are doing. Then we go to the border between Haringey, barnet and Enfield, begin pre-claiming them, and try to lock them, it's nice because Enfield is 30 min after, so we can try to lock the first 2 during the activation period (assuming we start locking one early), and then start Enfield just as its activation period starts.

The only issue with this is that there's limited benefit to doing something clever to capture Haringey early if the other teams are just knocking out the fully open boroughs in the meantime

18:09

The easiest three borough chain we can get right at the beginning is Islington-Hackney-Tower Hamlets

18:09

we can do that just by walking

18:10

I'm not sure how easy the locking challenges will be though

the downsides of the normal strategy of trying to claim the first boroughs is that they are contested so we might get locked out and the points might be wasted. The incentives to lock a borough is quite high if all the other teams have claimed it. It is actually worth more to lock a borough that both other teams have claimed after the activation period compared to claiming an active borough

18:14

Locking a borough that both teams claimed after the activation period causes an unconditional 3 point swing against both teams, claiming an active one only gives a conditional 2 points swing (if it doesn't get locked after)

We do need the points though. There's 7 boroughs open at the start and if the game does start closer to 10 then it'll be 9 very soon. If we don't get a chunk of those then we're just leaving them open for the other teams.

18:18

Preempting the wheel is great but we need to be in the initial skirmish for boroughs as well or we're going to be at a disadvantage right from the start

18:18

there's a lot of points to grab

So if other teams adopt a claim-only strategy, then they can get 6 points in the initial period realistically, since each claiming challenge takes 15-20 minutes and there's travel time. The issue with a claim-only strategy is that this is very vulnerable to people going later and locking them out, since that's a guaranteed 3 point swing against all other teams. Alternatively, if people adopt a claim-and-lock strategy, I guess realistically they can at most only lock 1 borough and claim 1 borough. This is not a huge advantage if we have a head start for the rest of the game. If we start by claiming Islington or Camden, I feel like we can be more flexible, we can choose to claim more group 1 boroughs (those that activate first) or pre-claim group 2 boroughs

18:30

But I'm pretty uncertain

18:31

I think the main issue with the fast locking strategy is that they can just skip the boroughs and start the later ones early

Wait, our location is always visible to others, I think that makes the fast locking strategy not viable. Since people will just avoid any borough that you have a head start in

Given location tracking, maybe the best strategy is just to simply try to lock a borough if someone is also in the same borough but you finish claiming it first, and if no one is in the same borough, just move on to a new borough.

But people could come after to lock - or we could go after to lock

12:56

Do we know if people tried to lo cck and failed?

12:56

I assume we don't know the challenge until we arrive

12:57

A la Schengen showdown

I don't know - @Realigning do the locking challenges have failure conditions?

12:58

I assume they don't because it's not mentioned in the rules that you can fail them or that there's any scoring consequences

13:00

We still need to decide where we're going first at the start of the game

ratt

I don't know - @Realigning do the locking challenges have failure conditions?

Not sure exactly what you mean. Some are explicitly fail-able, but then there's no reason you can't just immediately attempt them again provided the borough remains unlocked

Sifa Poulton

I assume we don't know the challenge until we arrive

For the locking challenge, you will know all of them in advance. For the claiming challenges, you won't

Realigning

Not sure exactly what you mean. Some are explicitly fail-able, but then there's no reason you can't just immediately attempt them again provided the borough remains unlocked

In Schengen Showdown there was an explicit penalty for failing a challenge

13:02

but yes that answers that

ratt

In Schengen Showdown there was an explicit penalty for failing a challenge

I see, no we don't have that

Good to know it's not one change and done - less pressure!

ratt

We still need to decide where we're going first at the start of the game

team chat: I think any place where we can get a relatively easy 3x claim just by walking between the locations would be a good start

13:08

I do think we want to be bold here, even if we end up in conflict with other teams, because any team that doesn't do well out of the initial scramble for boroughs will have a disadvantage

13:09

The last game I played in Central London my team went straight for what we believed to be the hotspot with a backup option in case we came into conflict. What actually happened was that noone contested us and we had the lead for nearly the entire game

13:11

Both Islington-Hackney-Tower Hamlets & Westminster-Lambeth-Southwark are easy to walk between if we go straight for the borough boundary area

13:13

Going to Embankment and walking to Southwark via Waterloo would be an option if we want to hang back a bit and target the boroughs where other teams are not in.

Image attachment

13:13

This is also very walkable

Image attachment

13:14

just north of Moorgate, across the shopping area at the bottom of Hackney, and finally trying to claim Tower Hamlets and getting straight on the Overground at Shoreditch

13:16

I think we should be fairly ambitious right at the start and reevaluate judging by how well we do out of the initial scramble for boroughs

Four boroughs touch by Crystal Palace train station: Lambeth, Southwark, Bromley, and Croydon

13:24

Merton, Sutton and Kingston touch near Worcester park train

I'm not sure either of those are ideal for us right at the start

13:29

it'll be a long time until they open up to give double points and in the meantime another team can swoop in and try to lock them

I was flagging for later on

Yeah, good call

13:33

One consideration I think is that in practice, teams might just be racing just across the borough boundary, or to specific locations within the borough depending on what the challenges are

13:34

I think we're going to have to be adaptable

Go in with a plan and expect it to fall apart in 20mins

Sifa Poulton

But people could come after to lock - or we could go after to lock

I thought about it and going back and lock is not a good strategy as long as locking is slower than claiming. During the time they lock our claim, we can claim another borough. E.g. suppose we and another team have both already claimed borough A, we move on to borough B, they lock borough A. We end up with 2 points from borough B only, and they end up with 2 points from borough A (we've clarified the rules and a claimed + locked borough is worth max 2 iirc). And given that locking is slower than claiming, we actually come out ahead (edited)

20:09

And they are at a even bigger disadvantage if they go back and lick after activation period and turn their 2 points into 1. This generalizes. As long as, by the end of the game, we won't have run out of boroughs to claim while they lock boroughs (which I think is clearly true since we simply don't have that much time), I actually think that going back and locking is very inefficient. (edited)

20:13

Also it sounds like locking is high variance whereas claiming is safer, which makes claiming better I think

Sufficient?

Do we need to record or can we send our list?

It's fine

We are plotting with team 3 currently

16:54

We have met them

16:55

Team 1

judging by the tracker, team 1 is the team you seem to be next to

16:56

not team 3

I'll leave for a bit

Taking over

Realigning

judging by the tracker, team 1 is the team you seem to be next to

Yeah good point. They think we're team 3 as well

16:59

lmao

16:59

We were going to work with them

16:59

Now we're backstabbing them

17:00

We just had a whole conversation with them about how we need to screw over team 1 so they're probably onto us

We are in Brent, what's the claiming challenge @Helpdesk

17:03

Brent: Sense the passage of time (edited)

17:03

One team member must predict when 1 min have passed. The other must use a stopwatch for timing and the member that predicts must tell the member with stopwatch to stop after what they think is 1 minute without looking at any timing device. Challenge is completed when the time is guessed within 1 second before and after the minute. If not, you must try again.

Image attachment

Do we record it or smth

you just have to record the last few seconds

17:07

but yes, you do need to record

17:07

the person doing the guessing should record

17:07

because if the person with the watch does the recording, they could be giving subtle clues

Ten minutes starts now

And our ten mins are done

1. More deities are worshipped here, so it's more inclusive 2. It's more accessible as it's closer to a tube station. 3. Its opening hours are longer

Any pictures of attempting the challenge? (edited)

Sorry our clues are soaked

17:26

We are working on memory

We are soggy and there is no further path to improving our position. We're calling it here

ok

No problem, I hope you had fun

in that case I will definitively state my proposed meeting location as where we are going, so you can start heading there if you like

We have had fun!

17:32

We just think we can't win in 30mins so would rather get dry!
