Who: everyone
When: Day 35 morning
Where: the lounge car

[This morning, or whenever you wake up, you will find that there are delicious smells wafting from the lounge car. Upon investigation, one will discover a beautiful spread of hot cocoa and tea and coffee and many marshmallow animals, ideal for putting in your drinks or simply eating wholesale. It isn't just cats either, but many animals of a similar quality of marshmallow, whatever kinds you'd like. But you may find the warm fuzzies they impart might be a bit more than internal.

In a conspicuous place is a note in handwriting many of you may find quite familiar at this point:

Thanks for your help.

- Hazel


His signature isn't alone, either. There are a couple of others, though somehow they're far less readable? Some are definitely just little drawings. Weird.]

[[ooc notes: 10% furry event!! many marshmallows have no effect, but those that do will instill temporary animal parts up to a kemonomimi level! enjoy your ears and tails, folks. and your newbies.]]

Exactly! A little bit of strategy can go a long way if you can get a read on your opponent.

Guess I'll get to see if i'm any good at that. So the numbers are just point values other than one countering bolt?

Yeah, that's right. Oh, but you figure out who goes first by drawing a card-- whoever has the lower value goes first. If you draw a special card, it counts for a point value of "one."
schrodingerscockroach: (Well we could)

[personal profile] schrodingerscockroach 2019-07-19 07:31 am (UTC)(link)
Got it. So a lot of chances for ones.

And how do...rounds? Go?

We draw to figure out who goes first-- if it's a tie, we keep going until it isn't. The guy with the lower value plays first, and then the opponent plays a card. If it ends up in a tie at any point, both people discard their hand and they try drawing for who plays first again. The game ends when there's either an unambiguous winner or you both run out of cards, at which point the person with the highest value wins.
schrodingerscockroach: (If you say so)

So it's just constantly building up points unless a draw happens?

[personal profile] bad_crowmance 2019-07-20 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
Exactly! And trying to undermine your opponent while you're at it. It's a game with strategy.
schrodingerscockroach: (:))

[personal profile] schrodingerscockroach 2019-07-20 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
Looks like it. [And a bit of luck, but most competitions do.]

So want to try a round to see if I got it?

Definitely. Let's do this!
schrodingerscockroach: (Will let a man fight gravity)

[personal profile] schrodingerscockroach 2019-07-20 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
All right. How much do we draw?

[Shuffling his cards back together.]

We each draw ten cards.
schrodingerscockroach: (...what)

[personal profile] schrodingerscockroach 2019-07-20 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[Drawing cards.]

[On one hand, he's good at strategy and math.]

[On the other hand, his luck is shit.]
