such a thorough examination
You’re being nice here: rereading myself, I realize I took way more space for the side note rather than the proper review. :o
I'll give your game a try as well.
It’s too late now (I was so busy reviewing!), but you were not forced to reciprocate the testing; I prioritised entries with few votes, with a few exceptions such as… yours. XD
As point of interest on testing behaviour/strategy: I decided on also reviewing some of the games coming from people that tested entries with few votes (as a virtuous circle), and I found you through your comment under Dicey. ;)
