Scoring

If you have 3 City cards, you win instantly

Otherwise, City cards are worth nothing

Gain points for each number you have taken more of (e.g. the 5 cards are worth 5 points, if you have 3 and opponent has 2, you gain 5 points). Ties are nulled (e.g. 2 5 cards each give 0 points to all)

Gain 5 points per run of 4 (4,5,6,7 or 1,2,3,4) ignoring majority wins (e.g. if you lose 5 card majority 2 to 3, but have 4,5,6,7, you still get the 5 point run score)
