I'm going to be away most of today. I think I get to give away one Gio. I'll give it to the runner up, which is Rathji. If I can keep it, and use it for next round, I'll do that!
I'm also away next week for curling provincials. I will be very spotty in checking in, so if there aren't games next week, I'll be content. If the show must go on without me, I understand.

Yeah, the 35 was the big turning point. I judged that I would likely run out of chips / Gaudreaus before anyone else and I would be forced to grab a number or two that would really hurt me. So I got ahead of the curve and tried to pick up as many Gaudreaus as possible, since I had a good feeling I was going to lose anyway. Better to end up with a bunch of Gs, rather than 0.
I think that game would be much more interesting if you only had 10 chips. Passing almost indefinitely wouldn't be possible, and everyone would be on an even playing field. As soon as I saw that Gs were involved, I knew I would likely be in trouble, but that's my fault for not having many coming into the game. It played a huge role I think.

It's funny I was going to pick it up, but I wanted to wait a few more rounds before I did.
I was still worried the missing number was going to be the 33 or 34, and I would have been sunk if that was the case. But then you jumped in and picked it so that went out the window.
Even with the 33 missing, I think it was still somewhat likely I would have lost anyway. That was really my only chance, and even then I think it was 50/50 at best for me.
Just had to cut my losses at that point really.

Also I would suggest squiggs be stripped of the Gio's since he is trying to take one to the next round with him...It's only fair that they are awarded to me since I was the first to mention this clear violation of the spirit of the game.
I'd like to suggest a compromise on the "can HG transfer his Gaudreaus" question.
Letting him send them to GGG seems one sided, but so does making him keep them. I propose he be allowed to transfer them to me, as an unbiased third party.
