Re: Why intentionally bomb a game?

I disagree Romain. I don't know of any masters who play with these "5-stalls", that a 5 clue in the early game is not a play clue. This seems very arbitrary and against the principle that conventions should be as consistent as possible. If you clue a card not on chop, it is a play clue. Ha...

The Royal Game of Ur

Would it be possible to implement the Royal Game of Ur on here? It's one of the oldest board games in the world (over 4500 years old!), and it's really cool and impressive for a game that old. There shouldn't be any copyright issues or anything, since I'm like 99% sure it would be in public domain. ...
