Bones

[Poly]

Bones is a game played with dominoes, apparently it's really called All Fives and I'm using a jail house term, haha. It sounds cooler lets go with it. Double sixes are the most popular set used for dominoes, so we'll start out with that for now. I've played this game a whole bunch. I'm sure you'll enjoy it too.

Leela has volunteered to distribute the dominoes, so I can play in this one with you guys!
I'm feeling exceptionally lazy today. Instead of walking you through the rules, I'll link them.

BONES! i wanna play!

[Poly]

I added you. I also sent you a PM about Midnight Mayhem, go read it.

[Poly]

Hey I drew the double six.
I've always played the highest double goes 1st.
If you have a 6|3, now's the time to play it for 15.
If not, play anything you can. You don't score every turn anyway.
If you can't play anything PM Leela & she'll send you another Domino.

i play 6/blank

[Poly]

I played a blank|2.

[1deadcop]

on the other side i play 6/1

[Poly]

We used to not let you get points for something you don't claim, or if you count wrong.
This is the one exception. Next time you don't claim points they will be lost.

2|1

*EDIT*
We are just playing to 100 BTW.
We'll make this a short round & wait to see if anyone else wants to play for Round 2.

*2nd EDIT*
Haha, Short Round...

That's the kid from Goonies.
He also played Short Round in Temple of Doom!

You have fifteen points.
The Double Six is the spinner, 12.
Plus 1 at one end and 2 at the other = 15

[Poly]

I played the 5|2.
Which makes 15 points all for me.

[1deadcop]

Okay wait.....

so it looks like this now?
1/6 6/6 6/blank blank/2 2/1 1/5???
^spinner


Nevermind saw the new pic


i play the 1/3
so 17

[Poly]

5|6

How's that for one nutty turd of a turn?

*EDIT*
I think it's funny how much work KaosHerald put into your sig compared to his own.

[1deadcop]

I play 5/5 so thats 27 point?


and i picked all the pictures he put them together for me, he did a great job

[Poly]

It's
16
+5


Also that double 5 does not act as the spinner.
It only counts when not connected on both sides.

[Poly]

I had to draw to play.
Luckily it was only once.

3|4

[1deadcop]

i play 5/ blank on the bone you just played, so 19 points?

Sorry but, I had a 3|4.
I said it in my last post here.
I added the wrong domino in paint, fix'd.
Did you want to play that on the double five?

so 19 points?

I assumed you read the rules I linked & you knew points are only scored when the ends (and exposed spinner) equate to multiples of five when added together. Had that been a blank on the right as we had thought, it would have been 0+6+2+10=18. Which is ZERO points. Do you get it now?

[1deadcop]

i guess ill play it on the double fives i last dropped

[Poly]

You only have one domino left in your hand, right?
Or was that your last turn? I played double four BTW.
