In this game, sixes were rolled a lot.  Which means that lots of bad things happened.  Doug was able to steal a specific card from me three times!  Argh!  But what was<br \/>\nfunny was that he thought that he needed one building to win the game.  Little did he realize that I had taken the last special building in the game.  So he did not win it.  He did have to go after another victory condition (which he did after two<br \/>\nturns).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mu While we were waiting for Jon to show up, we started off with a learning game of Mu.
