<p>Ellaofravenclaw: Undo revision 9315 by Super nuts (talk)</p> <hr /> <div>It's very fun to play!<br /> <br /> Different players go for different collections. So you'll have to change your strategy every game, depending who you are up against.<br /> <br /> Lots of players prefer to collect Boston Cream because you can get really big scores with them, like 15 or 25 points (if no one interferes).<br /> Some players like to collect Plain because you get 3 bonus points if you have the most but some players aren't fussed about Plain donuts at all.<br /> <br /> If you have to pass a negative card to another player, don't pick the player immediately before you. Otherwise if the &quot;all players pass a card to the left&quot; card is activated, that negative card will end up back in your hand.<br /> <br /> However, you may also choose to pass that card to the current highest scorer to reduce their score.<br /> <br /> If you think lots of people are going to go for the same card and there is a &quot;Take the top card from the discard pile&quot; (Eclair) you can bid on on a further number, it might be good to take a risk and bid on that. This will only work if the Eclair card is after the card you really want!<br /> <br /> Similarly, it's risky to bid on Eclair if there is a negative card before Eclair. For example: if Red Velvet (-2 points) is in position nuber 1 and Eclair is in position number 3. If 2 players bid on Red Velvet that will become the top of the discard pile and you will gain negative points. <br /> <br /> If you bid on &quot;Chocolate frosted&quot; remember that you may get a negative card from the top of the deck.<br /> <br /> Collecting &quot;Boston cream&quot; can be fun but the score is 0 if you have an odd number of cards. If you currently have a positive score on Boston Cream, all it takes is for another player to pass another Boston Cream to you to reset your Boston Cream score to 0.</div>
