PASS THE PIGS - race 04
So remember how last time I forgot to account for the holiday? Well, today I checked my calendar and found out that this Friday is 清明節 - Tomb Sweeping Day in some translations.
Now, Chinese people have this interesting tradition where, when your ancestors die, you have to burn Hell money or paper items for them so that they can enjoy a better Heaven. (I'm not joking about this!)
We're quite the greedy bunch, aren't we? Even in the afterlife we have to have lots of stuff!
Sounds like a good time as ever to introduce one of my SPECIAL RACES...
GREED TOUR!
So what's a GREED TOUR? Well, the objective is to pass the pig (just one!) as many times as possible.
Pass the pig once? One random.
Pass the pig twice? Two randoms.
Pass the pig twenty-seven times? Twenty-seven randoms.
I hope you see why this is called a GREED TOUR.
Now, I have a nice bonus to throw in: each time the pig makes a complete round of all the players, every player also receives a random color stamp.
The catch to this FOUNTAIN OF CARDS? This is only going on for a limited time!
Tour: GREED
Passback Restriction: 3 players*
Pass Prize: 1 random per pig!
Win Prize: WE'RE ALL WINNERS.
Round Bonus: 1 random color stamp!
Start Date: Friday, April 4th, 12 noon local time (+8 GMT) for 72 hours*.

* numbers may change depending on number of players.
Please note the passback restriction. I've also changed the rules a bit in case we get the same problem as last time - please read that before you join.
