One more vote for play and Red team can start, if there is a nay sayer, we will wait for more votes to accumulate.

So next if the next vote is Yea, feel free to guess too.

Interesting Simul-post.

[QUOTE=JpnDude]  
Whoa, good job REDS. I was going to guess “CHUTES and LADDERS” which I preferred to play over CANDYLAND.  
[/QUOTE]

Go RED!
