Dårlige vinderstrategier

Har du nogensinde været ude for at spille brætspil med nogen, der spillede med en fuldstændig hovedløs strategi – og stadig vandt?

Denne tråd på reddit.com har læssevis af øjenvidneberetninger fra brætspil, hvor en af spillerne har valgt at svømme mod strømmen og spille stik mod al fornuft – hvor det stadig har givet gevinst.

Her er to af vores personlige favoritter fra tråden:
Agricola for vegetarer:
“I don’t know if it was the worst strategy per se, but a vegetarian friend of mine, while playing Agricola, refused to slaughter her animals for food, even if it was the best option to get food. Instead she got food other ways, while harvesting veggies and wheat and ended up winning somehow.”

Regnbue-strategien i Quarriors:
“My seven year old daughter loves Quarriors. She has about a 70% win record.
Her primary strategy is to acquire at least one of every color die available in the current game.
Again, her strategy is based solely on making a dice rainbow. She has a 70% win record.”
