Tie Break???

Post by USDescartes »

I just "lost" game by tying my opponent 6 Books to 6 Books. The rules do not mention a tie-breaking condition. Rather, if a player empties her hand, that is a trigger for the end of the game, and, quite explicitly, the rules state "The player with the most Books wins." Keep in mind that this is for a game with "normal scoring," not a variant of some kind.

Confused? Because *I* sure am!

This is on table 717984171. On the "Game Result" page, it states that the tie break is the number of cards in-hand, but if that is the case, isn't that JUST as likely to mean that because I have three cards left and my opponent has zero, that *I* should win, since I have more cards? Either way, whether it is the Tutorial or the Rules, unless something is really wrong with my reading, there is NOTHING about tie-breaks!
