Play a lot ==> win points ==> move up level => Your ability points is equal to your level ==> spend them ==> manipulate your rolls in advanced mode.

You can see your points&level by clicking your name.
You are currently level 5 esse, so you can spend 5 ability points. The best way imo is:
  • change a 3 => 5 (1 pt)
  • change a 3 => 6 (2 pt)
  • change a 3 => 2 (2 pt)
Meaning that you actually get something useful out of your first three 3s

I think its actually better to save them so that you can make snakes easier with you 5-8 rolls

Re: Triplechain

can i re-use the points by locking the abilities I have unlocked?

if not then I think saving to 11 is easily the best option to get the no 3s ever

which would be 150k points, lol..

Re: Triplechain

the first one is talking about when to use the abilities during the game

the second one I'm talking about redistributing ability points in between games

Re: Triplechain

Finally broke 40k but it was a fluke. There is clearly a basic part of strategy for this game that I haven't worked out yet.

Not at all. I like normal a lot more because it is balancd. Advanced is not, the high volume players have huge advantage and Alex´s scores are practically unbeatable.

Look at ginter. He has played a MASSIVE amount of advanced and only 2 scores in top 30.

Kokiri made 15th highest normal score - that´s pretty good. I´m not in top 30.
