[QUOTE="EccentricFlower, post: 249461, member: 5393"] I don't read the goals in advance and I don't really make a concerted effort to try for them. They happen as they happen. So it's annoying to finally unlock the wizard goals for a table and find that among them is one you've achieved a dozen times but which didn't count because of some standard goal you didn't get for the longest time because it was complete bull****. Current example (though there are many): Just looked tonight to see what was holding me up from going to wizard goals on Party Zone and it was some skill shot nonsense. Now, skill shots are pretty much always BS, and I don't try for them, which means if I need to cross them off the goal list I stop and deliberately blow a few games while I try to get TPA's horrible plunger mechanics just exactly so. Meanwhile, one of the wizard goals (I see on these forums in the master list) is to finish the Eat-Drink-Be Merry combo, which I do about once every other game. Feh. Feh, I say! Please cite your favorite (well, that's not the right word, is it) ... please cite your most-loathed examples here. P.S. The forum configuration has assumed that 'BS' refers to Big Shot. That amuses me. [/QUOTE]
