RE: [risque] Re: Risque code idea
I have idea for a tie.
In case of tie the both opponents donīt lose those points and in the second
round
they and everyone else that have still points left can bid again.
If you are setting everything on one territories you know which risque you
are taking
and in really deadend situation there should always be the īresignī wayout.
