Jan has a gift for seeing the drama in normal human interactions. This is almost as good a story as the guys out front of the coffee shop.

Kudos, NR! I was shouting "Roger Daltry" at the screen.

My deepest condolences on your losses this year, Alex! Stay strong; we, the living, still love and need you.

Straight Scrappin': a stream not about zany fun, but about humankind's hubris.

Still watching this, but had to say that the boys are right: multiple currencies are clumsy and make the game less interesting to play by removing player choice about how to spend one's earnings.

Just echoing what others have already said: What a great idea for a feature! Mahjong is a game I've known of for decades and still know almost nothing about. Keep it up, GB!

For movie buffs out there, the phrase "klaatu barata nikto" is from the 1951 sci-fi classic The Day The Earth Stood Still.

Isn't the gray-haired guy in the portrait Voltaire? Also, thanks for all your great work on GB, Abby! Best wishes for the future.

Clue Crew, Kachoo!

The rules DO make a game fun, because they put everyone on the same page and focus competition/cooperation onto specific skills. Winning ain't the only thing; heck, it may not even be the point.
