I love the aesthetics of the rule book and am looking forward to trying this out with my RPG crew.
2 quick questions on the material:
1st, could you help me understand the 1:1 wagers for meddling gamblers and when betting on a wanderer's failure/success? If I win my bet, do I get back my initial stake in addition to the profit (i.e. I wager 2 coins, I win, I receive 4 coins in total)? Or are the wagers simply supposed to be the ‘entrance fee’ for meddling and a successful meddler gets to keep their money—i.e. offer 2 coins, succeed, get 2 coins back (in which case I still don't get why you'd additionally bet money on a wanderer's roll)?
2nd, would you consider adding print-friendly (black&white, without the paper texture) versions of the character and betting sheets to the downloads? I personally like to play digitally, but some of my friends prefer to keep track on paper.
Thanks in advance for your answer and for this beautiful game :)

Hi!
The 1:1 wagers for the Meddlers and for the Wanderer's outcome work as your first assumption suggests--you earn back your wager plus a profit of equal value. If I wager 3 coins and I get away with my meddling, I earn 6 coins (getting back my 3 coins, and taking 3 more coins from the Pot)
As for the character sheet, I've just uploaded a print-friendly character sheet as per your request.
