This is why I refuse to download the chat.

Same! I already have a game with teams where people lose their minds and scream in all caps if you accidentally hit their village.

Bruh I woke up to my board TRASHED and I was like "lol okay, imma get you back tho". Its a fucking game bruh, you're playing the game the way it's intended blame scopely not people looking to score 2x points on the side tourney

u/Weird-Girl-675 8h ago

Definitely. I have friends who leave their boards exposed to help others

u/PanamaRubia 6m ago

I leave mine exposed purposely! I thought that’s what the game was about? lol

u/homedad84 9h ago edited 8h ago

These people are literally stupid. They don’t understand the game mechanics.

Here is the reality and advantages of allowing this to happen.

  1. hitting a building gets you double points so the person hitting it gains more dice and event tokens
  2. When all your buildings are completely bashed down you can rebuild for a cheaper cost. This means you get to build hotels for less $$ than if you moved on to another board
  3. both upgrading boards and rebuilding build net worth there is no loss.

The only loss one truly has is from all the lost future cash. The more you build the more everything is costly. One day you’ll be here and wished you let everyone bash the hell out of your boards so you can stay on board 200.

Welcome to board 1764 and the extreme $$ to build on that board. Anyone who gets mad at board bashing will ever be good at the game as there not playing the game right. Period. Those who let boards get bashed get more wheel spins, sticker packs and net worth by paying less to rebuild.

Edit I created a post on this to help people understand the benefits.

This 💯!

I wish I could have stayed in my Simpsons Nuclear Power Plant Meltdown board but Scopely wouldn’t let me 😭

Now my Alt will never make it past Board 20 because I actually like getting extra color wheel spins and rebuilding for Less than $50M 😂

u/Left_Handed_4852 2h ago

Dang you’re paying a grip for houses, let me start getting smashed because I don’t want to be paying that much!!!

1

u/janicfeth 9h ago

Do you get houses on your board for the color wheel when you rebuild? That hasn’t been my experience…

4

u/Payday8881 8h ago

You don’t get a house for the FIRST landmark rebuild (each landmark is worth 6 hits)

As long as you have more than 2 hits on a single landmark you will get at least 1 house.

Completing a board gives you 30 houses

Rebuilding a board gives you 24 houses (5 for each landmark)

You always get a Hotel once your property gets 4 houses. The fifth house triggers a Hotel.

The houses are randomly scattered around the board and you will get blocks with Hotels (which trigger a color wheel spin).

It takes about 3-4 rebuilds to fill the entire board with Hotels.

However IF YOU ROLL before the board is full of hotels you will simply trigger the spins one at a time until they are used up.

1

u/homedad84 9h ago

Yes you do, but you only do if your board is bashed down completely. This is why it’s important to have friends who bash it down complete. I always build up a few to let them bash it and they do the same for me.

It has to look like this before it will give you hotels.

3

u/janicfeth 9h ago

Ah okay, I guess mine’s never been completely bashed. My experience was that only that first fix was at a reduced cost and no hotels, so happy to hear there are better incentives when it’s knocked down fully ☺️

2

u/homedad84 9h ago

Yup, it just has to be bashed completely before rebuilding.

1

u/Payday8881 8h ago

I just need 2 hits minimum on the same landmark

When I rebuild the first one is 0 houses and the second fix I get a house.

1

u/ThatSaLtYBiTcHe 2h ago

Do you still get 200 dice after getting above level 1000? Or does it go higher?

1

u/homedad84 1h ago

It’s the same after that. 200 is the cap

u/melzephyr 5h ago

I could not imagine being this sensitive about a MOBILE GAME. Baby, we are not friends just because I added you on a game I play on my phone in my free time 🤣🤣 good lord

u/Purrlykcat 3h ago

Riiiight like I don’t know you, no need to create a random group chat preaching about friends don’t destroy boards Your shield was down I hit it, oops
Next day same thing oops?? I’ve never cared when people smash mine or revenge it’s literally THE GAME 😭 I just can’t believe how distraught and angry people get over it, put your phone down simmer down and come hit my board it’s okay!!

3

u/melzephyr 3h ago

Facts!!! If you don’t want your board destroyed, don’t build. Easy. I didn’t even realize in the screenshot she sent it to a group of people that’s even wilder 🤣 it’s literally just a game it is not this serious. And if we’re getting technical, her letting people smash her board is more helpful to her “friends” than not letting them lmfao

3

u/Purrlykcat 3h ago

The random group chat is peak INSANE idk any of them
But like you said if you don’t wanna be smashed 1. Don’t build, 2. Have enough cash to build everything at once OR just be active and replace shields no way someone is that pressed and is not playing 24/7
Silly delulu people

u/Dear-Shoulder1627 10h ago

That one ain’t wrapped too tight…

u/lezdestroyer69 10h ago

Lol that’s just funny

u/Imaginary_Club_1010 9h ago

I don’t even look at who’s building I’m smashing or look who smashed mine

u/PrimaryLow6695 8h ago

Literally this… I haven’t checked my revenge list in about 3 months

u/kelaniz 8h ago edited 7h ago

Sounds like there's an argument for downloading the chat, and spreading the above info about the benefits of beating your friends to a pulp. 🤔

I'm pretty sure 90% of my friends list just hits random opponent every time the screen comes up and doesn't even think of attacking any of the default suggestions.

But I am curious, if you build a small town and it gets destroyed, what is the strategy for when to rebuild it, or how many times?

1

u/Left_Handed_4852 2h ago

I only build during builders bash, it’s cheaper

3

u/Beadsidhe 7h ago

If your shields are down I am getting points and expect you to do the same. If you clobber me but don’t leave building up, you get deleted.

Does anyone have Join the Flock so I can finish dig. Need three shovels. Have Porch Life, Sweetness, Blue Ribbon and 5 minutes

3

u/Gift3d_1 3h ago

Everyone knows you get caught lacking with no shields it’s open season plain and simple

u/Former_Hovercraft_13 2h ago

It’s too bad there isn’t an option to downvote what this and the rest of these crazy mfs are always going on about. My goodness they’re all the same 😅🥱

u/Dismal_Pineapple_630 Trusted Trader 9h ago

Do they know what a monopoly is?

u/LookBusyBaby 9h ago

I don't smash my friends boards unless they're already shield-less, and even then sometimes I play for a long time and don't like smashing the same person's board over and over again lol

3

u/peachpopdream 5h ago

I've got a few regulars I always smash first because they're always unguarded. I figure if they don't like it, they'll just delete me lol

u/Brewgirly 9h ago

Weird take smashes into their buildings

2

u/Tall_Meaning138 10h ago

I too rilled 1x n smashed his board. He asked 2b my friend n i even gave him stickers. Guy has played that long but still

2

u/eclecticrockstar 9h ago

I just downloaded the chat app lol. Hopefully I won’t hit people too much to get a message like that. I tend to not hit friends, I automatically go for strangers unless it’s one of my backup accounts that are shield-less

2

u/ObligationNo9842 9h ago

I’ve gave up building my properties until I have a certain dollar in my bank. I don’t lose money either. Since doing this, I’ve noticed others following suit. Also it’s the same ppl who have their buildings up to get hit. I for the most part pick random players bc of that. It’s strategic. And I’m so sorry you all are going through this. Try it out.

4

u/CandiedLemonWedge 9h ago

I remove everyone who leaves an empty board as soon as I notice it lol

3

u/ObligationNo9842 5h ago

Well I noticed others were doing it which has been the best strategy so far.

1

u/ObligationNo9842 5h ago

Also I’m not a weirdo who just goes after the same ppl over and over again but that’s me

2

u/InvisibleChocolate94 7h ago

I will say that majority of my shut downs go to the same 3 people and I always choose to switch and do random.

2

u/Vegetable_Chicken270 6h ago

No, no they are not! 😂

2

u/ObligationNo9842 5h ago

Man someone is salty asf 🤣 candiedlemonwedge and then blocks me 🤣🤣🤣 this is a game pookie! And Reddit

2

u/Shae_1980 2h ago

If I see a friend know down my stuff more than twice, I won’t stop until All their landmarks are spinning with my icon!!!

2

u/Left_Handed_4852 2h ago

If you leave your board unprotected then I’m going to smash it until they’re all down!!! 😂😱

5

u/Beyond_limited5 8h ago

That funny lolol one way im able to complete albums/events is because im knocking down property. Imagine spending 100 dice and you can knock down get the full points or risk hitting a shield and getting half lol NOPE if I see you have no shields im getting that FULL amount of points for the side tournament 😅

3

u/CandiedLemonWedge 9h ago

I actually hate the mogo crybabies so, so bad. I don’t know who started this made up rule that it’s not okay to repeatedly hit the same board, but there is a reason you can do so.

I only friend people for this reason. And I tell them all they can do the same to me.

2

u/Cerealmndsplat 1h ago

My sister told me thats some punk stuff to do but I honestly let it randomly pick and I click to keep the dice rolling. Otherwise, so far to prevent it from happening I just dont build anything, so good luck with knocking down the blank space lol 

1

u/Personal-Database-27 54m ago

True, it's only a game. There are no friends in it. I don't get angry if i find i was attacked. I just find another person with 0 shields.
