All,
Sorry for the slow play, I had visitors this weekend and may not get to my moves until tomorrow. Also, just a heads up, I will be out of town starting Thursday, so will not be able to play next weekend as well.
I should be good after all that…

Cheers,

@arathorn

Fun game, bid was probably too low, but I haven’t played OOB in years.

I would recommend switching up to Balanced Mod, which is what is mostly played these day.
