- Susan could win this turn if she answers her question correctly and then
- rolls a number that places her in the centre..... as could anyone who has
- yet to have a turn. As far as the 'electronic consensus' goes, I haven't
- quite decided yet, so I'm still open to suggestions..... I thought that when
- the time arises I would just call for votes for particular categories from
- the other players and those on the sidelines; tally the results and take the
- one that received the most votes..... any other ideas?
-
- As for when the game finishes.... that's up to the players as well. Do
- they want a play-off for the first three places or until all except one
- player has reached completion or should we call it quits with one winner?
