This is actually the FIRST time playing for money. Last round was similar, but without the requirement to fight others sharing a space. It was quite passive all the way to the end as nobody wanted to be mean to anyone else. The game began as a co-operative game and has slowly morphed due to ideas being tossed around. There is no harm in throwing out ideas! If we try it and it doesn't work, we just revert back to what did work.

lmao... "my two cents" is an expression, meaning just a "a small, intellectual contribution or idea" :) . Not literally "two cents " :)). BUt yes, sounds good. Just lemme know!
LOL... Sorry, it just happened that I was telling you that this is our first time playing for money AFTER you mentioned putting in your 2 cents. I understood the expression and was not referring to your 2 cents when I spoke of money. The money is the pot created by the players chipping in the 0.5 SBD each. THAT was the first time we did that. All other games before were just the players earning up-votes from me and the others. Now there is a bigger incentive to actually win.
Okay, cool... I was like..(These Canadians, man... ;) then again, two usd cents is what, like 0.0001 cent Canadian? ;))) . I'm only teasing you :) . One of my favorite people I met in grad school in GA and she was from "PEI," (Prince Edward Island, i believe?) It sounded so cool how she spoke of it, and she was very passionate about he home which I like :) I'm a nomad, so, I guess im just jealous that I don't reaaly have that :(
Yes, PEI stands for Prince Edward Island. I've never been there, however I have been to Newfoundland, which is not too far away from PEI. It is VERY different there than on this opposite coast.
Cool, you replied lol thought maybe i'd ran ya off w my remarks of crass humour !! :/ So you're on the same side of the country as me, then! Yes, im in PACNW USA, where I was born; though i lived in the Deep South for many years... So what makes the east coast so different than the west of Canada? Similar to the US's distinctions, would you say?
Well, I'm only familiar with Florida, and it is much warmer in Florida than the more Northern states I suspect. But all those tropical storms that hit Florida move Northwards and create very windy conditions for the East coast. The trees at the coast of Newfoundland are all stunted in growth, gnarly and leaning landwards. Here on the West coast, our trees are tall and stately. The weather is much milder, without the extremes experienced on the East coast. There are villages in Newfoundland that still don't have addresses on the houses! I found that shocking and felt as if I had gone back in time by 100 years! Everyone knows everyone else and land is passed down through the generations without any formal land registry. Only now, any sales that occur are registered, so they are catching up in that regard. The people are super friendly but some are very difficult to understand because they have their own slang on the English language.
Very interesting... How ironic a name for a place--Newfoundland--that is so antiquated! Thanks for sharing that. I am familiar with FL, too--its name, "The Sunshine State" is no exaggeration lol. It is quite beautiful, in a way; though, I thoroughly enjoy a good cool fall breeze and everything that comes along with it...
