Puzzle 1: Underground Mozart
Puzzle 2: Fiery Jinx
Puzzle 3: Somnom Woods

Meta Knight was first to submit and got them all right!
Cirdec got 1/3... (#2 & #3 were wrong, hell #3 was WTF o.o)
DragonFreak got none... (Didn't know any, but at least she sent me a PM saying so which does not warrant a Miss)
Chibiki Daisy got 2/3 (#2 was wrong)

Meta Knight wins and gets bonus! (+25 coins)

Nighttime begins now! Only 2 of the events have changed.
By the Golden Leaf: Instead of you flying to where you want, you choose where your opponent will start their turn from!
By Angry Wiggler: This Wiggler does not want to be disturbed... Disturb him and his rampage will cause everyone to lose either coins, an Orb, or inflict some harmful status...
The Sumo one remains the same.

Re: Mario Party Eclipse - Towering Treetop! [GAME THREAD, TURN 3/20]

Your minigame is very similar to some 1vs3 luck based minigames where the team must choose something different from the solo player or they lose. As a mathematics and calculation lover, I like to calculate the chances to win for these kind of minigames, as the solo player and the team. I never saw someone doing that, either because they don't care because lol doing maths at Mario Party or because it's too hard to calculate. For the later, they are not so wrong, the situation is a repetition of a probability experience, but here the main problem is the experiments are not independant, so you can't model with a Binomial law. You have to calculate for each case, if there are 1, 2 or 3 players from the team remaining, and then consider all cases. The best way to consider all events is doing a tree, considering the number of cases, a very big tree is needed (and I know our host loves Villager tree). And even, there is no equiprobability of events, which makes the calculation long with no easy relation to etablish. The sequence of events can't be switched around, this make a total of 21 events when the solo player lose, probability need to be calculated for these 21 events.
So I caculated it, the probability for the solo player to lose is
gif.latex

This can be approximated by 34,5%. So in others words, solo player has almost 2 over 3 chances to win, showing the minigame is not fair at all. And of course I am on the team. I wonder if the developpers really bother to do this kind of calculations to balance these minigames, but it seems they don't.
 
Re: Mario Party Eclipse - Towering Treetop! [GAME THREAD, TURN 3/20]

@Cirdec: 1v3 is practically impossible to "balance" on a forum. No shade, but let me know if there's something else I can do that isn't "don't choose the same as solo player" or "play the flash game and whoever has the higher accumulated score" wins. RNG generated this mini-game (which btw is based off of MP5's Fight Cards).

And hell Hide & Scheme was taken from MP3's Hide & Sneak and MP4's Hide & Go Boom, but I put 5 spots so that it's easier for you guys to win. 1v3s have usually been unbalanced; some favor the lone player while others favor the team.

they don't care because lol doing maths at Mario Party
I told you this on Skype, if I didn't want to do Math in Mario Party I'd be getting the stats wrong and I wouldn't calculate the Bonus Stats for you guys throughout the game, which I'd reveal at the end instead and if you wanted to prove me wrong, you'd literally have to go through all the events and mini-games of each turn.

the minigame is not fair at all. And of course I am on the team. I wonder if the developpers really bother to do this kind of calculations to balance these minigames, but it seems they don't.
I really don't know what you mean by "developers" here, because MPE has been a project I've been working on for the longest time, with inspiration from online friends but they didn't make anything for me lol. And keep in mind this is my first time hosting here (and hosting this game), so obviously with my first time hosting, there's going to be some issues with balancing and I still have things to learn about. But only by hosting will I know what I need to improve on. =P

Do I have a problem with you thinking 1v3 is unbalanced? No. Frankly, I prefer putting up the 4-player games because it's not as limited to concepts like these. But was it really necessary to try and fire shots with what I quoted from you?

Although I should take this as a lesson to not put a bonus for mini-games like these. :P
Moving on though...

Turn%204%20Mini-Game%20Actions%20Stage%20Fight_zpsiti7q6bq.png


Apparently you guys didn't like Chopping lol. I would've laughed if DF went for all Chops instead and won because of that.
I put in Red to indicate you were already out, and then I put in Purple if you would've been out should the game have actually lasted 5 rounds. :p

Chibiki Daisy wins!! (+20 coins with Bonus)

DF rolls 7, Meta Knight rolls 8, Chibiki Daisy rolls 6 and Cirdec rolls 4.

Cirdec: If you trigger the happening and cause the Earthquake, it'll only affect Dragonfreak. If you move before her and want it to happen, DF will jump on the Blue Space of the wooden bridge between Duel and Orb Space. If you move after her (she'll be on the Blue Space right before the blue flower) and want to shake the place, she'll land on the Blue Space right below it (the one between Miracle and the Blue Space on the brown platform).
 
Re: Mario Party Eclipse - Towering Treetop! [GAME THREAD, TURN 5/20]

I will go left at the junction.

EDIT: It is a firework space lol I didn't see that the flower took you up
 
Re: Mario Party Eclipse - Towering Treetop! [GAME THREAD, TURN 5/20]

I want to use my Mushroom orb.

YAY I CAN LOG ON AT SCHOOL FOR NOW

You roll 14! [6 + 8]
 
Re: Mario Party Eclipse - Towering Treetop! [GAME THREAD, TURN 5/20]

I will go on the left.
Flower is crossed, where am I supposed to land?
 
Re: Mario Party Eclipse - Towering Treetop! [GAME THREAD, TURN 5/20]

(I can't do direct quotes with this proxy I use at school but anyway)

@Chibiki Daisy: You get a Life 'Shroom Orb from Orb Space!

@Cirdec: You receive a Goomba Orb from Orb Space. The Pink Flower is crossed out at night so you go upward instead. Onto the Fireworks Space!

(Dammit I gotta put 2 mini-games this turn and then the 3rd actual end of turn mini-game lol)

Almost done with the mini-game Meta Knight triggered though.
 
Re: Mario Party Eclipse - Towering Treetop! [GAME THREAD, TURN 5/20]

Turn 5 Recap

Chibiki Daisy (Daisy)
- Receives a Life 'Shroom from the Orb Space.
- Lands on Blue Space. +3 coins.

Meta Knight (Yoshi)
- Goes left at the junction and triggers a Firework mini-game! 20 coins will be taken from each player, with a pot of 80 coins!

Dragonfreak (Birdo)
- Receives a Goomba Orb from the Orb Space (please indicate it next time because I almost forgot)
- Lands on Blue Space. +3 coins.

Cirdec (Mario)
- Uses Mushroom Orb and rolls 14!
- Collects a Goomba Orb from Orb Space.
- Triggers Fireworks Mini-Game! 10 coins will be taken from each player. HOWEVER, since Meta Knight's Firework mini-game has taken place beforehand, depending on Cirdec's placing, the pot may vary if he doesn't have the 10 coins afterward.

(God dammit I have 3 mini-games to post on this turn)

Link to game here. Remember, no cropping!

You may put these either in separate PMs, OR put them all in the same PM.
HOWEVER, the order I receive the PMs can affect your placing (primarily for X-Stylish). Whoever submits first with the correct answers will win, then the 2nd person to send with correct answers gets 2nd. If the first person gets a problem wrong, and the person who submitted afterward gets them all right, they will get first instead.
 
Re: Mario Party Eclipse - Towering Treetop! [GAME THREAD, TURN 5/20]

Sorry for the delay - Had to wait fairly long for the mini-games and also I've been a bit tired lately.

I'll tell you the mini-game results but I can't actually update the stats/board right now.

Problem 1: x = 6 or x = -6
Problem 2: x = 1 or x = 5
Problem 3: No solutions
Problem 4: x = 2
Problem 5: x = 0
Problem 6: x = -1

Meta Knight was first to submit with all correct answers, followed by Cirdec (you were 6 mins after him lol). Chibiki Daisy got 2 wrong (#2 and #4 were wrong) and DF was last and got 2 wrong (#4 & #5 were wrong)

Meta Knight gets 48 coins (28 coin profit)
Cirdec gets 24 coins (4 coins profit)
Chibiki Daisy gets 8 coins (-12 net loss).

No one got Listen Lessons correct. Therefore, the coins will be refunded.

Meta Knight & Cirdec: 123 + 150 = 273
Dragonfreak & Chibiki Daisy: 116 + 32 = 148

Meta Knight & Cirdec win! Unfortunately you were just 2 clicks away from getting the bonus. (+10 coins)
