Re: A few questions regarding the rules

As far as I can tell, the number are used to help the scorers (so they can easily tell which column to mark on their scoresheets as they are counting). If you read the game section of the rules, you will notice that the numbering isn't mentioned at all in describing rows. Only the word "adjacent" is used. Since 1 is adjacent to 8, I would assume that there IS wraparound.

However, any answer is pure speculation until an official answer (either in a Q&A or rule update) is released.
