321 Contact and stuff

(Sorry I didn't comment on anything yesterday. I managed to forget to check the blog.)

Might as well use my GMail: BVinchkoski at gmail dot com

I didn't make any changes to the Mis-Chef cards. Shawn didn't think the changes were necessary.

The Player Tokens have been painted since Friday night, I just forgot to post a picture. I'll do that today. The yellow one might need another coat.

We have to make sure we have all of the ingredient cards. I seem to remember that I had to make Nori and Flour on Friday for the play test.

I vote that the 2 seasonings = 1 main ingredient rule be tossed out. It's too complex. Haggis can stay. I think it's pretty funny.

Personally, I don't think it's possible to make the rules only one page. The only reason we had to explain stuff at the play test was because the people playing didn't want to read the instructions, not because they were too complicated. I agree that they can be shortened, but not by a whole page. As far as I can remember from what the rules say, some things just need to be cleared up, like the drop-off space and the areas of the board (like the Mis-Chef tiles).

And for the record, the group at Gamers Guild did not read the instructions. If they did, they wouldn't have asked what rooms the different ingredients could be found in, or the significance of the point value next to the extra ingredients on the recipe card. I'm pretty sure those were in the rules.
