Reply: Spectacular:: Rules:: Re: 2nd round supply boards in 5-6p games

2 May 2026 @ 6:53 pm

by Esven 5ergion wrote:Hello. Can someone tell me why in a 5/6p game there are only 4 dice in the supply boards and not 8 as in a 2-4p game, in the 2nd round?The reason for this is that the selection of dice in a 5-6-player game is much larger (20/24 dice). In a 2-4-player game, there is a higher probability for "lock situations" if the total number of dice would have been only 8/12/16. Although the total number to each player would have been the same, the distribution of different values is an important factor in this game. To enhance why we made this decision, think of a solo game with only 4 dice. Then, it will be too much randomness in the dice roll. We experienced the same in a 2-4-player game through testing. Hope this answered your question.

Apple stops selling the M4 Mac Mini's 256GB storage model through its online store

2 May 2026 @ 7:01 pm

Apple launched the M4 chip-powered Mac Mini in 2024, with its base model having 256GB of storage. This model went out of stock on Apple's online store last month in some countries, including the US, and has now been removed from Apple's website worldwide. As a result, the new base storage for the M4 Mac Mini on Apple's website is 512GB, which costs $799 with the default 16GB RAM option. There are two more RAM options - 24GB and 32GB. If you want more storage, you can upgrade to 1TB or 2TB. If you upgrade to the M4 Pro chip, you can get the Mac Mini with up to 64GB RAM and up to 8TB...

2 May 2026 @ 1:01 pm

Realme launched the Realme 15T last September, and its successor, the 16T, is rumored to arrive soon. While there's no word from Realme about the 16T's launch yet, a Realme device bearing model code RMX5268 and rumored to be the Realme 16T, has appeared on Geekbench with its key specs. The RMX5268 scored 784 and 2,007 points in Geekbench's single and multi-core tests, respectively.

Apple's iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max to be aggressively priced

2 May 2026 @ 7:54 am

The RAM crisis is expected to heavily influence smartphone pricing going forward, but apparently Apple won't be fazed by any of it. According to a new research note from analyst Jeff Pu, Apple is preparing some "aggressive pricing" for its upcoming iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max. Unfortunately, Pu doesn't put a number on that, and leaves us speculating. But past reports from Ming-Chi Kuo have stated that both Pro models would start at the same prices as their predecessors. In the US, that's $1,099 for the iPhone 18 Pro and $1,199 for the iPhone 18 Pro Max. Everything other than...

Realme C100 is headed to Europe with a smaller battery

The rumored 20th anniversary iPhone design will be applied to both Pro models

2 May 2026 @ 12:31 am

Next year the original iPhone turns 20 - or rather, it's the 20th anniversary of its launch, as we doubt any units are still around. Apple has long been rumored to be planning something special to mark the occasion, and a few days ago a report talked about a 20th anniversary iPhone coming with a quad-curved screen. As it turns out, that won't be a special anniversary iPhone model - instead, that rumor was actually talking about a redesign coming to the Pro series. So the iPhone Pro and Pro Max released in 2027 will have that quad-curved screen design, which Chinese smartphone makers had...

Apple AirPods Max 2 review

1 May 2026 @ 10:33 pm

The AirPods Max are the only full-sized headphones Apple has ever made. It was certainly a surprise when the original model first dropped back in 2020, still bearing the AirPods name despite not being particularly pod-like. At $549, they were also expensive, even compared to the other premium wireless headphones on the market. And then they just sat there without receiving many updates, with the 2024 iteration only introducing a USB-C port and new colors. Six years from that original release, Apple has finally launched the AirPods Max 2. At first, second, or maybe even a third glance,...

Spotify starts verifying non-AI artists, adds more details about all artists

1 May 2026 @ 8:31 pm

Spotify has started to verify non-AI artists, in a bid to increase "authenticity and trust for the artists behind the music". It's also a surefire way to imply that any artist who isn't verified is most likely AI. The Verified by Spotify badge will signify that the artist in question has consistent listener activity and engagement over time, a good standing with Spotify's platform policies, and "an identifiable artist presence both on and off-platform, like concert dates, merch, and linked social accounts". It goes without saying, but AI-generated or AI-persona artists are not...

AnTuTu results for April are in, iQOO leads the smartphone charts

1 May 2026 @ 7:02 pm

At the beginning of every month, AnTuTu publishes charts showing us which devices had the best average score the previous month. So now these are available for April. Keep in mind that these are averages, not high scores, and that only benchmarks completed in China count. Without further ado, let's start with the flagship realm, where the iQOO 15 Ultra dominates, followed by the iQOO 15 and the RedMagic 11 Pro+. As you can see, the Realme GT 8 Pro was next, followed by the Oppo Find X9 Ultra, the OnePlus Ace 6 Ultra, the Honor Magic8 Pro, the Honor Magic8, and the vivo X300 Ultra....
