comment Implementing a map exploration mechanic cheaply
If you already have some cards (and those are cheaper to produce than tiles), why not just use cards instead of tiles?

That's how Puzzle Strike handles multiplayer as well.

comment What are a blackjack dealer's options?
Playing with a dealer that has the same options as players would seem to be to be so different from normal blackjack that you couldn't even compare the two. The majority of blackjack strategy is based on decisions based on being able to see 1 (and only 1) of the dealer's cards, and the rules they have to follow.

comment 1-on-1 unorganized tournament scoring system
How many games do you expect to have in the "tournament"? Sounds like you just need basic ELO ranking, but I don't think it's going to work so well on such a small sample size.

comment Can people win at Diplomacy using a “Qin strategy?”
This doesn't really seem to address the question at all. If you're saying that the question can't be answered, that probably makes more sense as a comment.

This question isn't going to be answerable unless you give more details about the bidding system that you were using.

comment How does a firefighter “recover” after being knocked down?
Ah, looks like I was accidentally reading the Family Rules version of Knocked Down. Definitely clear, though it still seems like a pretty light penalty (that might even help in some cases).
