Do you have trouble with feelings of confusion? Would you believe that having all the information is not all it’s cracked up to be? What part of the game confuses you?

extgaw1 - Do you really think that your first post explained the rules? Don’t you think I have the right to feel confused?  
Does anyone else think that people playing this game are insane?

Isn’t it safe to say that insanity is clearly being demonstrated here on this board?
