I will say this: I've never played rummy and I'm getting an education in it, and wondering if this is what you meant when Hael and I were playing pazaak in your thread in QF64 I even wrote a Python script for it.

You put a card shar(p/k) cosmetic role in your game. That’s basically begging people to start in-thread card games

It would've been nice to see pazaak or daidi but I'm happy to learn how rummy works Keep in mind that this samples rules from a couple different kinds of rummy. So this probably isn’t what someone is talking about when they say “rummy”. But the basics — runs and sets, and getting rid of all your cards — are there. 1

Kasimir he/him Posted May 21, 2023 Author Posted May 21, 2023 Two sets of early pre-clarifications: Don't expect much on the write-ups front. I recognise this isn't something anyone cares about so I'm probably saying this for me more than for you, but whatever This is a QF with some amount of tracking. I don't believe I need a co-GM for this and I think I'm fine, but my aim will be to get the next cycle up as fast as possible without making errors in managing player SP because QF cycles are short. I will be doing my utmost to prevent any player SP errors. In the world where I do make a mistake with your SP and it affects how much you would have staked, I need you to highlight the post to me to rectify it as soon as possible. I can't change the final bid that got locked in post-rollover but I can refund you the missing SP. If you want to point out to me in your GM PM while submitting orders how many SP you expect to have, I can work with that, but that's not required.

Kasimir he/him Posted May 21, 2023 Author Posted May 21, 2023 (edited) 4 minutes ago, The Wandering Wizard said: I would be willing to switch to Co-Gming Thanks for the offer, but I really don't need one Not saying this as a player numbers issue - I'm aware rollover time is (technically speaking) never short enough for a QF so I've resolved never to focus on write-ups for QFs. (Well, most games these days.) I've more or less set up the spreadsheet to automate everything on the SP calculation/carry-over/bid end and voting end so I just need to check the inputs each cycle and things are fine. Which also means that in the event of a player dispute, the posts are right there. Edited to add: Spoiler Edited May 21, 2023 by Kasimir
