Seriously… yes, you may feel you’ve screwed up, but this is just a game. Good sportsmanship might be hard under these circumstances, but still admirable, and I’d love to have the whole crew around for the denoument in just around a day or so. Even if some of them haven’t traded much since the first few days. ---
