I can't get my mind around how adding and removing cards is supposed to

together except in these two games, they are added one at a time.
Anybody here good at either of these?  This game is turn based hence OT.

Don't worry about being OT here, pretty much any games are o.k. why we
even have people talking about Nintendo games in PC group :)

Today I learned the 'official' description (as shown in sites like
newsgrouper.org) for this newsgroup is 'arcade-style games on PCs.'
No wonder people worry about being off-topic.

Of course, arcade games were a lot more varied than people remember,
and genres like strategy, RPG and simulation games all made it -in one
form or another- into the cabinets. They rarely were commercially
successful, but 'arcade style' is actually a lot more extensive than
people realize.

Although... maybe we could get people to plug in a 1€ coin for every
question they ask? What could be more arcade than that?! ;-)
