Another super quick one (this week’s journal seems to be full of them!). I have mentioned how I play Cartographers on my phone so much I don’t even bother recording the plays anymore.
Well, this week, I have been playing in the ranked game and I have managed to break my personal record by a lot. In Cartographers (or Cartographers Heroes), a solo score of 40+ is considered great. To score this, you usually have to score about 100-110 in the ‘normal’ scoring.
You see, in the solo Cartographers Heroes, each scoring goal has a value you subtract from your score to determine your ranking. So imagine how excited I was that I achieved a ranking score of 147!
I quickly jumped to the leaderboard to see how this score faired and came crashing back to reality. Can’t even crack the top 100. The top score at the time of writing this is 227. The top 4 are all 200+. No idea how they did it!
In a game like Cartographers Heroes, there is an element of getting the right cards to truly jump your score. Try as I might, I can’t see how I can squeeze another 80 points out of what I have here, which is what I would need to match the top spot.
But I almost doubled my personal best – I till take that as a win!
