This sucks. On toast
Spooky Fanboy, Nine Wolrds' number one fan, was on the scene, of course, with excellent comments and questions.
My man
Jason Blair dug it, and noted a big ol' typo goof. (the tie-breaker example doesn't have Hearts symbols, but has twice as many spades symbols as it should for Alexander's hand)
Ethan Greer shared some great critiques, as well as excellent editing points.
MathiasJack had an interesting suggestion about shuffling decks.
Kirt "Loki" Dankmyer (a.k.a. Xiombarg) said his group will likely playtest the game. Rock!
Antii Karjalainen created a friggin' character sheet* on his own intiative, and he's looking to playtest the game with his group. He also rocks. On toast.[/list:u]
The people listed above will get free copies of the final PDF-version of the game. The next 6 people to offer something useful up in way of critique/playtest will get the same.

Spooky will also get his group to playtest it. Soon. Because I love it that much.
And a free pdf of the game only makes the love grow. ;-)
