Table the 9.

[Farren]

The game is normally played in matches (4 players = 4 rounds, with a different player going first each time) to try and mitigate the luck somewhat, but I think that got cut to one round for time reasons? I can see why; this round took over a month.

I did a quick search for variants - the only ones I see are the Michael's variant (which I believe is an optional part of the core rules) where players start with an empty board and have to draw numbers one at a time to fill in the first diagonal (which means greater odds of having a messed-up starting position), and one suggestion on BoardGameGeek to try a snake draft to distribute the starting tiles. I wonder what it would look like if drafting were a big part of the game - but it wouldn't be Lucky Numbers anymore, I don't think.

Correction: there are 32 tiles left in the stack, not 33. Looks like the stack size has been one off since around the hand-off. Fixing now. Sorry for not catching it sooner!
