Bonus tokens question

Just trying to understand how they work

1st one (15 pts) is easy - but to collect the others do we need to get a COMPLETE set each time?
Or just a complete set of what is left….?

Eg/ if 2 players between them take all the 9s and 10s before the 2nd bonus is achieved - does that mean it is then impossible to get any other bonuses?
Or does a player simply have to get 2 of each token before the other player?

The rulebook clearly says 'additional complete sets of Point Tokens', not point tokens left. You have to collect one of everything.

Just returning to answer my own question - now that I’ve played a few more games it has become clear - as this may help others new to the game.

As above (thanks @ufm) complete sets of ALL tokens are definitely required.
So for example, if one player manages to take all of the 9 or 10 tokens it does mean that the 2nd player cannot possibly ever earn any bonuses.
Or - in multi-player games - if any player has been prevented from collecting a number token before they run out, then likewise it will be impossible to pick up any bonus.

Also, I’ve noticed that it is possible to be awarded MORE than one bonus token in a single turn.

Hope that helps people to decide which numbers to target next

Once any number been taken all and if anyone missing a current number then that person cannot collect bonus token anymore due to missing number =(. Harsh.....

I believe u can collect more than one bonus token in a single turn as long as you meet the requirements.
