I'm so glad we stuck it out. It was great playing with you both, I read some great books, and I learned a valuable lesson about friending all my teammates to make sure they're at least 18 🤣.Seriously, it was a lot of fun, thank you both!
Aww, I’m sorry it’s over! I had a great time with you both, and like Trio said, I got to read some great books. We did have a bumpy start, but this is definitely a challenge I’ll be happy to play again. Thank you both for making it so fun!

Never changed - it's always been the 9th, but more than one person thought it was the 6th. Maybe I typed it wrong in one place? 🤷🏻♀️
