Trash, Trade Up, and Treasure

HingoHingo Minneapolis, MNRegistered User regular
edited October 2015 in Pinny Arcade
In the spirit of "kill, bang, marry", I bring you the pin edition. The rules are simple: You have 2 fodder pins to trade. You are also allowed to take one of the pins from the table and throw it directly into the garbage. Which pin do you trash? Which pin do you trade up for based purely on value? Which pin do you trade for as your favorite of the pins available to treasure forever?

    My picks for Table 1:
    Trash: Moon - I've never really cared for T&C, and that is my least favorite pin of the set.
    Trade up: Ben Kuchera Staff head
    Treasure: Sprite - I loved the shit out of Hob, and Matt Uelmen and Max Schaefer are awesome to talk to

    Ooooh fun.

    Trash: Tyche. Not a fan of the art style for Gabbie either tbh.
    Trade Up: Sprite. Always keep the next PAX in mind!
    Treasure: Castle Guy, because 17 isn't enough.

  • misskassmisskass Melbourne, AustraliaRegistered User regular
    Trash: Castle Guy. DIE, CASTLE GUY.
    Trade Up: Iced Coffee Kemper, everyone loves Kempers.
    Treasure: Probably the Cardinal, in an attempt to broaden my collection horizon of older pins, I'm looking into obtaining some of The Behemoth's cuter offerings.

    trash: Beker Staff head, if I've got that many surely I can spare to throw one out :P, seriously though probably any of the staff 2 set, I'm getting kind of sick of all the orange...

    Trade: Something from lookouts, that'll get me something good in a trade for sure

    keep: project spark, best design on the table

    Trash: Binwin Bronzebottom. I really don't like the design of the AI set, and there are a lot of Binwins on that table.
    Trade up: Sprite. Its design is fantastic; I'm sure someone will be looking for it at South or East.
    Treasure: Pumpkin Fucker. There's just something about a robot fucking a pumpkin that really resonates with me, y'know?

    Trash: MC Frontalot because euuugh that design.
    Trade up: Probably the Iron Guard Stance, I might be biased though since East '14 was my first PAX.
    Treasure: Cardinal because I have spent countless hours playing Castle Crashers. Looooove that game :D

  • MetricalSkyMetricalSky Vancouver, BCRegistered User regular
    Trash: Sophia Hex. I'm not a fan of Behemoth's pins in general.
    Trade: Probably the Ben Kuchera staff head.
    Treasure: Sprite. I just really like the design.

    I still haven't seen the PNW Kemper in the photo, but yeah, assuming we get free reign on the case (which as a game, we almost certainly cannot) ...
    Trash: Balloon Man

    WILDCARD: There is a Naughty Dog pin face down near Brian's right elbow, if that is Ellie then it is def the new Treasure -- Ellie is probably my favorite pin of all.

    Also, that PNW Kemper... IS NOT ON THE TABLE!! That's pretty clearly in someone's personal little bag.

    Additionally, Gavin is totally chomping on the Japanese sour grape treats that I gave him!

    I don't care it still counts!
    @dmosinee Brian used random card backs to put pins on for his upside-down trading game. I got a Valentine's Day pin by using the strategy of "pick the backing with the barcode on it". Agreed though on Ellie, definitely in my top 2 favorite pins!

    Trash: one of the sketch pins
    Trade Up: Riptor
    Treasure: I would choose PNW Kemper if he was on the table, but he looks like he's in a bag that someone is holding. Therefore, I have to choose...FF from the core 1.0 set
