**TokyoPlayer** , I expected more.

I played this with a couple of friends over the weekend, silently counting up the totals as they ran off the countries, so that they wouldn’t feel self-conscious about playing as the count increased. I got 30 from a 46-year-old and 31 from a 30-year-old. I guess I’m the cold fish of my circle.
