Everyone --- I'm having major internet problems at home. We think our cable modem is bad so please bear with me --- I'm trying to get everyone's turns validated.
ATTENTION
I have gotten thru Post 42 and have quite a few people that have issues with the first roll. When you start you are on Space 1 (GO)..... When you roll, you are should be on The space that is 1 + the total of your roll.
The following people have a problem: Erin, RebeccaS, Abigayle, Cheryl, Kathy, and Kristine. Our Internet went out again so writing this on phone --- I will not be able to trace thru until Mon (if modem works) or Tues morning.
I will send out an email with the effects for those with issues and then you can make a separate correction post.
If you edit your post, put what was edited. I do NOT look back at posts.
