Last played number card in a hand can act like it has the number or close to the number of the card before it

#

What?

#

So like, if I play A2345, then the 5 is also treated like a 4?

#

if like said above ^^, why would that be useful

No the 5 can also be treated like a 5

shadow plinth No the 5 can also be treated like a 5

I said "also"

It will adapt to the highest played hand type basically

#

For example

#

You could technically create a 5 of a kind

vagrant cypress Sep 4, 2025, 12:55 AM

#

74256 would make a pair?

red veldt Sep 4, 2025, 12:55 AM

#

This sounds like quantum ranks which probably won't be implemented

#

vagrant cypress 74256 would make a pair?

Yeah, unless you put the order it as a straight and put the 2 at the end

vagrant cypress Sep 4, 2025, 12:56 AM

#

what?

#

the card order doesn't change the hand

#

and it isn't a straight, missing a 3

#

and what would putting the 2 at the end do that the 6 doesn't

shadow plinth Sep 4, 2025, 12:57 AM

#

vagrant cypress and it isn't a straight, missing a 3

So basically because the last card is 4 the 2 basically becomes a 3 to complete a straight

vagrant cypress Sep 4, 2025, 12:58 AM

#

so this joker raises the rank, not matches it?

shadow plinth Sep 4, 2025, 12:59 AM

#

That depends on the type of played hand

#

Also it can’t mimic face cards

vagrant cypress Sep 4, 2025, 1:01 AM

#

396?
a) 6 -> 8
b) 6 -> 7
c) 6 -> 9

369?
d) 9 -> 10
e) 9 -> 6
f) 9 -> 5

#

which ones?

shadow plinth Sep 4, 2025, 1:04 AM

#

vagrant cypress 396? a) 6 -> 8 b) 6 -> 7 c) 6 -> 9 369? d) 9 -> 10 e) 9 -> 6 f) 9 -> 5

a) if played a straight
c) if no Straight (pair)

e) No straight (pair)
f) if played as a straight

The fact any of these questions were asked is an immediate nope

Wild ranks

#

I understand what you're going for i think, but its wayy too roundabout in wording- no Joker should be that unclear

shadow plinth Sep 4, 2025, 1:07 AM

#

I should probably rephrase lol

#

It basically changes the last Card number best suited for the played hand

#

Is that a better explanation

#

The point of a Mathematical Fallacy is to say that something equals something else when it does not

#

For example does 2 = 5

lunar wadi Sep 4, 2025, 1:12 AM

#

Isn't a fallacy specifically something untrue but believable

shadow plinth Sep 4, 2025, 1:12 AM

#

Yeah

#

That’s what I was going to say

#

Meh doesn’t matter

#

I’m losing here lol

vagrant cypress Sep 4, 2025, 1:18 AM

#

its kinda cool but confusing ngl

shadow plinth Sep 4, 2025, 1:22 AM

#

Probably better as a modded joker

"Ranks of final two scored cards in hand are equivalent"?
