    The rules
    Before the game starts every player gets 15 cards, numbered 1 through 15. The game contains 15 rounds and each round has a value between -5 through 10 (excluding 0). Each round has a different, random chosen value. When the value of a round is known the players PM bid on that values with the cards they have in their hands. The player with the highest number adds the value of the round top his total score.

    Ofcourse there are a few "but's".
    1 - Every card can only be played once.
    2 - When two players play the same card they clash and they don't participate in that round. When all players clash, the value of that round is added to the next round.
    3 - When the value of the round is negative then the player who plays the lowest number gets the card.

    Examples
    Ex. 1
    Value of the round: 8
    A plays a 10
    B plays a 7
    C plays a 15

    Player C has the highest card so he adds 8 to his total winnings.

    Ex. 2
    Value of the round: -3
    A plays a 8
    B plays a 7
    C plays a 1
    D plays a 1

    Player C and D 'clash' (they have both played '1'). Player B thought he was safe playing a '7', but because C and D clash, he now has the lowest number and gets the '-3'. Ai!

    Well, 230 was dumb enough to play 7, which is clearly below any of martini's remaining cards. So martini wins, good game.

    I think he played 7 so that Dynamik could have played 7 too.
    had they all worked together they would have made me lose this round. (by only doing 10's and 7's)
    I'll play through, this is the last PM anyway

    *btw: yay I won tongue.gif
