Re: Tumbleweed Game Thread
OK, I'll post this as a one-off spoiler in here, as it addresses some of the points I've noticed from people's gameplay so far.
1 - moley. Stop editing your posts you big cheat (although I understand it was a time issue)
2 - uefacup81. You claimed for bells AND weeds in the same post. I suggest you re-read the rules before making such an horrendous faux pas again.
3 - jamesthegill. Your claim for 95 weed at 19.33 yesterday. Did you mean to claim 95 weed? See the post I made in the discussion thread about ther number quoted when claiming for weeds.
4. The Raven. At 23.17 on the 20th of June, TR claimed 45 weed. Moley's little time issue has been counted as a spoiler, so this is a correct claim.
Going back to uefacup81's double claim, I'll just clarify the rules on this. The WHOLE claim is invalid, so the clock is NOT reset. However, as the first part of his claim is valid, he gets the 300 points for the four bells, but loses his rather pathetic claim for five weed thereafter. So his score for this claim is 295 points.
So, to clarify, for the purposes of invalid claims, although a player gets points for PART of his overall claim being valid, the OVERALL claim is invalid for the purposes of clock resetting. Players can therefore ignore such posts in future when calculating time elapsed, as scrxisi did, by claiming six bells in the next claim. Hope that clears up some points for you all.
Hopefully you should all be picking it up now. As this is a spoiler, please respond to these points in the discussion thread so we don't spam this one up.
Carry on.
