Extremely Random - Chicken Pieces pointed out like Chess Pieces
-
Hey!
I was trying to figure out how to split out an odd number of pieces of chicken among an odd number of people and (being a gamer at heart) one of the more amusing concepts that arose was to "point out" the pieces of chicken as though they were "valued" - similarly to how pieces are valued in chess. I understand that this has a huge subjective component but I thought it would be amusing to see what people think and hey at least this isn't another restricted list topic!
Wing seems like it would be like the "pawn" - so I'd base line that at 1 point.
Leg likely is the next up the chain - personally I'd put it at 2 points.
Thigh I believe would be the third tier up the ladder - pointing it at 3 seems like a decent place to start.
Finally the Breast seems to generally be the most coveted of pieces, akin to the queen in chess. Personally I would put that at 5 points.So initially that would put us at:
1pts - Wing
2pts - Leg
3pts - Thigh
5pts - BreastDoes anyone have any input on this obviously ridiculous endeavor?
-
Five wings for a single Chicken Breast? Bargain.
-
Thigh is vastly superior to breast. (When it comes to chicken)

Breast is more protein. It's more value
-
We clearly need some rubrics for to do positional analysis as well. How valuable is a passed wing? Can we have wrong colored (sauce on) Thighs? Should we try to trade Legs for Thighs early in the game due to endgame considerations later? Is a Leg on the rim (of the plate) a dim idea?
These are pressing questions.

Guys, I don't want to derail this thread, but chicken is flavorless garbagemeat.

You are a vegetarian, your opinion is invalid.

How absurd
To kill a bird
For our food -
It's kind of rude
To the little dude. -
As someone who has had both carnivorous and herbivorous diets, I can tell you, chicken is the only kind of meat that terrible fake meat actually tastes like. This, I suspect, is not a coincidence.
-
Since we're talking about random things to do with chicken I have a question. There's an old saying about food that everything tastes like chicken. Given that is true, why dont eggs taste like chicken?
-
@khahan They do, you just have to wait longer.
-
So is a porkchop a Rook or a Bishop?
-
Is this just about chicken? What kinds of sides are being included with this meal?
-
Also is the chicken fried? Is their gravy?
-
If its fried is it battered in the blood of its young?
-
@hierarchnoble It's just about the chicken. The sides are all "scoopable" and easy to portion ... although the exact split COULD be used in part of the negotiation ...
-
@garbageaggro Yep it's fried chicken
-
@serracollector No - that would be mighty hardcore tho!
-
@brass-man Yeah a five-4-one is something we'd be psyched for in MTG that's for certain ... maybe I am overvaluing the Breast due to personal bias...
-
@serracollector Pretty big fan of pork chops personally so I'd say Rook!
