I'll take Maine.

yup that's right. whoever takes the number starts the next round.

[mrkajz44]

So in theory, the first person could take all the numbers without anyone playing? Just don't want another 'broken' game. I can't see why anyone would do that, but I didn't reality anticipate any funny business last game either

[Hockeyguy15]

You could do that, but then you would be guaranteed to be last.

We can now begin, when it is your turn either type "DECLINE WITH 1 CHIP or 1 GAUDREAU" and PM the person after you, or type TAKE NUMBER and PM me.

I will draw the first number which is thrown out

?

[GirlySports]

The first number up for auction is

-32

Rathji you're up first.


Here is the scoreboard

Rathji: (10 chips)
Hockeyguy15: (10 chips)
GGG: (10 chips)
squiggs96: (10 chips)
bizaro86: (10 chips)
mrkajz44: (10 chips)

[mrkajz44]

A nice doozy to start I see

[squiggs96]

In the rules you have: For example if you have -3 -5 -12 -13 and 6 chips left you score is -27

But based on: if you took consecutive minus numbers only the best one counts

Would your total not be -14?

[GirlySports]

My example is dumb i changed it

[Rathji]

Wife took me out for dinner so this is my first time actually looking at the game for more than a brief skim. Give me a few to catch up while I take care of some evening work tasks

[Rathji]

Sorry for the delay.

I will put a chip in the pot.

You should probably just take that number. It's the 4th highest number, possibly the 3rd highest. It's a keeper.

[Hockeyguy15]

decline with 1 gaudreau

Why does it say shenanigans in the middle here? Should we be expecting something unexpected after GGG declibes this number?

[GirlySports]

Just joking that Hockeyguy and GGG got drawn together
