Maker’s note
Draw one for a relaxed game or switch to draw three for a 1.5x score multiplier before your first move. Points follow the traditional table: flips, waste to column, home runs, and a penalty for recycling the deck; a win adds a bonus that shrinks with the clock. Stuck positions end the run on their own. Seeded deal.
