And by george, Nick, I do believe you've set the bar high this time! That 31 points is higher than the theoretical perfect score, the first time we've seen that in one of my games, congratulations!

Greg, I will say that it's a shame that you put together a theoretical perfect score and lost with it. You deserve to be commended for your high score.

A new game will start in January, most likely on the 2nd. Good luck to all then!
