Discarding Destination Tickets in Ticket to Ride While User 1873 has correctly stated the official rule, in casual play, it's extremely common for players to ask for your permission to play before you've discarded. You should give this, unhesitatingly... seeing their play is usually to your advantage. If someone asks another player, you should discourage it. Not so much because it's against the rules, but because it's to the drawing person's benefit. |

Counting multi-runs in cribbage Just be prepared to break it down if your opponent fails to grok your shorthand. Double Run, Triple Run, Double-Double run, and Pair Royal (=3 of a kind) are pretty widely used, and most competent players will know what you mean by them. Most tournament players will be well more than just competent... The only one that's standard that a lot of players don't know is "his heels"... many confuse it with "his knobs"... |

How much would it cost to get started with Magic: The Gathering? I'll quibble on the "There is no other game with such infinite potential." L5R has about as many cards, is doing quite well, has larger tournament decks (in no small part due to a play-deck being two separate piles), and thus is more flexible. |

Maximum attainable points for a single player in a two player game of Carcassonne I show 10 places on here for additional farmers. More than the meeples available. 6 around big city alone. The one in the upper right corner scores two cities. |

Erasable yet bold crayon for Empire Builder Games (e.g. Eurorails)? On factory laminate, you use a damp sponge, in several passes. If you use a hot-application laminate, you leave the 1-2mm edge on the map, and can just rinse it in the shower. For an adhesive laminate, you need to either over-shoot the edges 2-3mm, or tape the edges, in order to assure water-resistance. |
