When a player calls "green" he must reach it within a number of cards equal to the number of cards he has already called (For example if he has called 6 cards, regardless of how many are "correct" and how many are "wrong," he must reach the green card in 6 cards.) If he does not reach the green in the req'd number he does not count the cards after the green as "correct", but only those before the green are counted "wrong." | He had a new idea for his <u>GAME</u> with "the green deck" to <br> | ||
