[Fiasco] The abortion that didn't take
David Artman:
I can see the potential procedural confusion around Tilt (good site for Fiasco II revision, Jason). By my reading, there's a number of questions:
OK, so highest white and highest black "choose Tile elements... as during Setup." Say I have White 6 and Bob has Black 4.
1.a) Do I pick a category AND its element, then Bob does so for his choice? ("Full control method")
1.b) Do I pick a category; then Bob picks a category(i) OR a particular element of the category I chose(ii); the I pick one of the specializations of the two chosen categories(i) OR the other category(ii); then Bob picks the last particular element? ("Alternating picks method")
2) Who picks first, regardless of element selection method (1 above)?
3) What if there is no "highest black" or "highest white," say if only white or black dice were ever chosen during Act I (rare, but it happens)?
I can make some guesses, but I'm curious about the RAW intent.
1 is answered by case b ("as during Setup"), which also has the interesting element of giving the second person to choose a bit more control.
2 seems like just "he highest value" with ties broken by letting the black pick first, as that character has probably had some rough scenes!
3 seems like the "highest" of the missing color would be, say, the lowest of the present color (i.e., if the white-to-black values were a continuum, then the lowest white is "closest" to the [non-existent] "highest black" and vice versa). Like so:
10B.... 5B.... 1B, 0BW, 1W... 5W... 10W
Hope that's clear enough--I haven't had to use outline numbering to keep points straight in a while (I must be tired today)!
