it says "all played cards become debuffed after scoring. but it's only scoring cards

this isn't a bug but i don't know where else to put this.
also it does say "after scoring", but that's after the hand is done scoring, not the cards

Scoring and triggering and playing are different aspect of playing a hand.

‘Playing’ refers to any card you put into a hand you play. This could be the Ace of a Straight, a 9 in a 2-4 Two Pair, or the debuffed 6 of Spades in the Spade Flush. It is just a card in the played hand.

Scored is any card in hand that will either give chips, trigger Jokers, etc. In addition to this, it needs to be contribute to the actual Hand type being played. So any Stone card, a Spade in a Spade flush, etc. It does not include debuffed cards or other cards not a part of the Hand Type (Stone and any cards played with Splash being the exceptions).

Last is Triggers. This is how many times each Scored card activates in your Played hand. With no external modifiers, this is always 1. This changes with Jokers like Sock and Buskin, Hanging Chad, Dusk, but also with Red Seals. These can all cause a playing card to trigger more than once.

Now that I’ve explained that, the difference between Scoring and Triggering should be a bit clearer. Basically, what you are referring to as scoring in your post is actually triggers and retriggers. Scoring just refers to the conditions where a playing card will trigger at least once.

Hope this helps.

the debuff is intended to apply after the hand scores, not after each individual card scoring

wise shale
#

So if it applies to the hand scoring. Then all played cards should be debuffed

tardy finch
#

the cards that aren't trigger even once are not considered to be scored

#

I outlined the distinction

#

scoring cards trigger

#

the debuff is not meant to apply after each trigger

#

only after scoring

#

a card will only ever score once in a hand

#

but they can trigger multiple times

wise shale
#

But they are played. And the description mentions played. But I'm just gonna assume you right because I don't know much about this game

tardy finch
#

They are played, but if it they not scored, then it will not get debuffed

#

if they are scored, they will trigger x times

#

after all triggers, they will be debuffed

wise shale
#

So it's all scored cards are debuffed

tardy finch
#

yes, all scored cards will become debuffed after all triggers have ended and scoring has finished.

wise shale
#

That was the point in the original post

tardy finch
#

scoring is more of a passive condition rather than an active thing

#

the way your post was worded seemed to indicate that after the first trigger of a card (will all cards being red seal, there is always at least 2 triggers) that it would immediately become debuffed

#

is there a different meaning you wanted to convey that I just didn't pick up on?

wise shale
tardy finch
#

ok, I get what you're meaning now. I think that the exact wording of the challenge is more to stop stuff like steel cards from being debuffed, since they score but are never played

wise shale

yeah, that's a valid way to word it
