Re: 2013 Game?

I think correcting the awful ranking and elimination system from 2003 would be the largest worry to correct for another stacking game. I wasn't around then, but I've looked back here on CD and heard from others that it was ridiculous.

After that, I think we will see another game with an absolute maximum score (i.e. the game pieces can only be scored once, then remain in the "scoring position"). I would rather play a recycling game like 2012, '10, '08 or '06, but it seems that 2013 being such a game would be just a bit "out of order."

My guess, which seems to be less common than some others, is the return of fixed, freestanding goals similar to the 2005 setup, but tetras aren't on the menu.
