October Subdue the Shelf Roll Requests

[NancyJ]

Do we have a drinking game for tonight?

@Diana-I will not update your Masterboard until I see you have responded to Theresa/Anita on this roll.

Look who showed up at NYC village Halloween Parade! Ursula!

Looks like the Halloween Party on the Subdue Express is in full swing ...

I hate to be obtuse, but I am not sure what to count. Is it all the full images? I am not sure I know what a gourd looks like. Do you already know the answer? Is it 44?

I got a rough count of 89 objects (+/- a few). I can’t tell what some of them are, but maybe they all count. Some appear to be decorated gourds (squash) in different shapes (round, oblong, or lageniform). Either way it’s a good one!

Yes it is 44 - half of a total of 88. There is one in middle that is so hard to see I skip over it. It's all the full clear images. These are vintage-like German Halloween lanterns and decorations of various kinds. Maybe I got too seasonally clever today, but I could not resist. I use that as a banner on my FB page this time of year.

Theresa, it was cute and fun! I just wanted to make sure I counted right. Thanks!

Not sure when the November chat will open up, but I'm requesting my next roll please - 1 dice :)

[Joy D]

I am ready for another roll, please! (1)

November Roll thread will be opened shortly. I'm a night owl, not a morning person, and this morning was complicated with several urgent client legal matters demanding my attention before I was fully awake.

But first, let's finish up some October business.

@Diana - Some good news for you on your mega-roll.

After discussion, Train Management will allow you to split your mega-roll between rolling off your old board and starting on your new board. However, since you did not follow protocol (no notice of posting and locking new board before requesting roll, or requesting permission to split the rolls between old and new board), you only get to use the last 3 dice rolls on your new board. Those rolls give you 6+5+1= 12.

To be clear, your new board is locked and you start your new board on #12. Hope it's a good read!

Going forward, the rule is that on any future mega-dice rolls at the very end of a board that could provide substantially more moves than needed to roll off, the player must:
1. Seek preapproval (before asking for roll) to split the rolls between the old and new boards. Without that pre-approval, the rolls are strictly applied to rolling off your old board only.
2. The player's new board must be posted, locked, and have had its screen shot before asking for approval of Train Management to split the mega roll.

REMINDER: NO rolls may be requested for a new board until the player has uploaded the full new board and notified Train Management that it is uploaded, locked, and ready for its screen shot. This is not a new rule.

Thank you for the clarification, Theresa!
