When playing Telestrations and most other party games, my groups never bother to keep score. The joy is in the activity (and the s prong rules are often garbage because playing to win is less fun than playing).

When playing Burke’s Gambit, we often leave out the Manual Laborer. It’s just a nothing kind or role.

Let's Play a Game! A place to discuss all things board game, regardless of genre. Everything from Scrabble and Catan to Ark Nova, 1830 and beyond is fair game! That means we have blackjack. Bring your own hookers, sorry.

Rules:

  1. Play nicely with others here.
  2. Discussion should be at least somewhat related to board games and all that entails.
  3. Self-promotion is allowed within reason. Don't go overboard!
