Posted: Tue Aug 25, 2015 7:53:46 pmI get anxiety when it comes to submitting things on a deadline and I'm worried I'd submit something too early y'know what I mean?
Re: IC #6
Posted: Tue Aug 25, 2015 7:56:04 pmI'll be the leader. We will win this. SIZE MATTERS NOT, BITCHES

Re: IC #6
Posted: Tue Aug 25, 2015 8:07:22 pmSo the best way to win battleship is to have the ships far from each other and two attack in a checkerboard formation.
A3,A4 for 2 ship
E3,F3,G3 for 3 ship
C5,D5,E5,F5 for 4 ship
Are we good with that?

Posted: Tue Aug 25, 2015 8:07:58 pmidk I'm trying to google "how to win at battleship" and am finding confusing algorithms... but I feel like this isn't really technically battleship, is it?

Posted: Tue Aug 25, 2015 8:08:17 pmGood with me
Re: IC #6
Posted: Tue Aug 25, 2015 8:08:38 pmWell we can also diagonal, which isn't battleship legal. Do you guys feel we should have diagonal ships?

you sound like you know what you're doing, Im okay with it.
Elaborate on the checkerboard: what should we do with our guesses?
Re: IC #6
Posted: Tue Aug 25, 2015 8:08:53 pmWhat's our attack strategy?
Re: IC #6
Posted: Tue Aug 25, 2015 8:10:06 pmImagine the board is similar to a checkerboard: white and black tiles. Only attack one type of tile and you'll hit more often than random guesses. So I can do C3 and then E5.

Posted: Tue Aug 25, 2015 8:11:01 pmSo we aren't putting anything in rows 6 and 7?

though with the diagonal that might complicate things... we could potentially miss a whole ship y'know?

Correct. Unpredictable. It's a crapshoot in any case.
Re: IC #6
Posted: Tue Aug 25, 2015 8:12:00 pmPlease get together your final board placement, and diagonals are legal here.
Re: IC #6
Posted: Tue Aug 25, 2015 8:13:52 pmif we say a tile do we sink our own ship too?
like if we have something on C5 and they have something on C5 if we say C5 do we hit both ships?
