Zag · Tired of his old title

You don't get to draw a card from me. Did you think I didn't consider it? Enthusiastic Grin

Cordelia · Daedelia Member

Yes, sorry, but the total of cards in Zag's hand is not greater than 9. You do however get to see the contents of his hand (and thus know the one face-down card for Zag).

Courk's turn again.

Reminder at top of page:

Courk · Daedalian Member

1 Eye face up on triple veils.

Zag · Tired of his old title

I've played a card face down on the Gaudy Bracelets.

Dented Ford · Hoopy Frood

Well duh! That will teach me to read the rules and info properly and/or actually consider the value of a (new, complete) hand rather than vaguely remembering it said 15 somewhere on the page and assuming that had to do with a hand's value.

Dented Ford · Hoopy Frood

[Edit - deleted out of turn play]
Whoops - it's not even my turn. Although the title said (Dented Ford) when I looked just now, and I was surprised. Now the title says (Courk)
Are you sure people aren't just messing with my head?

Courk · Daedalian Member

Shouldn't you guys be waiting to see what I do with the triple veil?

Cordelia · Daedelia Member

Courk, you can look at any possession...is the veil the one you want to look at?

Courk · Daedalian Member

Oh. And yes.

Zag · Tired of his old title

Cordelia · Daedelia Member

After Zag's turn:

Scurra · Daedalian Member

Can I wait until Courk tell us if she is revealing the Veils? (Even though I'm pretty sure she won't Extreme Delectation

)

You can, if you want.

Zag · Tired of his old title

There aren't powers associated with the possessions, are there? I'm having trouble understanding why anyone would want to reveal one after looking at it.

Scurra · Daedalian Member

I play 1 Tooth face-up. It will replace the Triple Veils

It depends on what cards are in other player's hands. For instance, if you find out that someone is about to win a card, but you want that card, yoiu may want to encourage them to divide their attentions. There are plenty of reasons to make information open. It's the "rattlesnake" principle.

Now it's still early in the game, and it'd be harder to know if you want to reveal anything right now. But you could.

Dented Ford · Hoopy Frood

I play 2 Eye on Gaudy Bracelets and look at Zag's hand

Cordelia · Daedelia Member

DF will be taking a card (PM both Zag and I which one.)

Zag · Tired of his old title

Oh, crap! I was so careful not to let my total go above 9, and I missed that one.

Dented Ford · Hoopy Frood

Card nabbed, thanks very much.

Cordelia · Daedelia Member

bump?

Courk · Daedalian Member

Apologies. I'll post later tonight.

Courk · Daedalian Member

*has placed a card face down on crystal ball*

Cordelia · Daedelia Member

Zag's turn.

Zag · Tired of his old title

I've forgotten what cards I still have.

Cordelia · Daedelia Member

Cordelia · Daedelia Member

Zag played a card on the Knucklebones

Scurra · Daedalian Member

I'd like to play the -2 Tooth face-up on the Knucklebones.

I'd then like to switch Zag's face-down card on the Bracelets with his face-down card on the Crystal Ball.

Zag · Tired of his old title

A brilliant play, I'm sure. If only I could remember what those were....

Dented Ford · Hoopy Frood

I play 1 Eye on Crystal Ball. I will look at the Knucklebones.

Scurra · Daedalian Member

Cordelia · Daedelia Member

DF may flip the Knucklebones, if he wishes. Courk's turn.

If anyone wants to know what is left in your opponents' hands:
Zag: 11
Scurra: 11
Dented Ford: 12
Courk: 11

Dented Ford · Hoopy Frood

leaving it face down

Courk · Daedalian Member

-2 eye on gaudy bracelets

Cordelia · Daedelia Member

To clarify, you may look at the cards attached to any possession, not necessarily the one you put the -2 eye on...if you want to put it elsewhere and look at the bracelets...or keep it on the bracelets and look elsewhere, let me know.

Cordelia · Daedelia Member

Courk looks at the Bracelets, Zag puts on a card on the Tooth.

Scurra · Daedalian Member

My apologies. I've been somewhat preoccupied over the weekend.
I promise I shall sort this out tomorrow morning.

OK, I have played a card face-down on the Knucklebones

Cordelia · Daedelia Member

That was a very late tomorrow, Scurra :P

Dented Ford · Hoopy Frood

playing 2 eye on Crystal Ball and look at Scurra's hand.
