Chrissy, please edit your post #33 to reflect the $84 your team earned for Backlist Boulevard. Your total should show an ending balance of $740.
((Upton's post #41 is correct and matches what your bank activity shows)).

This thread is for CAPTAINS and CO-CAPTAINS of the Landlords of Lore Game ONLY!
Use this thread to record your team’s rolls, moves, payments, purchases, completions, and any other game actions. This is the official record of gameplay — accuracy is non-negotiable.
🛑 READ THIS CAREFULLY:
You are required to post TWO posts per turn in this thread using the exact format below.
DO NOT DEVIATE FROM THE FORMAT. If your post doesn’t follow the structure, your turn may be considered incomplete or invalid.
I get it — it sounds rigid. But when something breaks (and it will), clean formatting is what lets us trace the issue and fix it fast. Consistency matters — help us keep this game running smoothly.
⏳ Turn Timing Rules (2025 Update)
🔹Your team has 72 hours from the time of the roll to complete the prompt(s)/ challenge(s) and post your results here in the Turns Thread.
🔹Missing the deadline may result in a penalty — communication is key!
🔹NOTE: These are maximum timeframes. You're encouraged to go faster!
🔹If you anticipate delays or need more time, contact a Mod before the deadline — do not message or pressure another team.
