Olivia gets away with stealing from Frazier because he pays no attention to his credit card statement. But we know he does have an accountant that could get suspicious. So how much money could we milk out of Frazier without getting caught? It's the Crane credit card caper. Oh, for some reason I thought we were doing proper stealing. So this is us just buying stuff with Frazier's credit card? Do you think you were stealing things that Frazier already bought? Yeah, I thought this was a stealing thing. Okay. I'll have to readjust. I tried to write a succinct explanation for the game. I honestly think that this will go better if we learn as we go. I think we should just dive into it and we'll explain the rules as we go. So Brad, do you want to go first? Absolutely. Name something that you would charge to Frazier's credit card. Okay. Just name anything. There are no rules. Well, that you would charge to Frazier's credit card. That was established. So the basic goal is you want to maximize how much you're getting from Frazier, but you also want to stay under the radar and not get caught. What happens if we get caught, Curt?

  • Players take turns naming a purchase. The other players assign a risk value, and a dice roll above it earns points while a tie or lower roll eliminates the active player.
  • I'll have to readjust.
  • Or do I have to give away all my stuff?
  • This doesn't have to be my only thing, right?
  • But I don't have to, because when you get caught, you have to give back all the stuff because
  • I just have to be last man standing.
  • We are going to rank out of 12 what Brad's thing is, how likely it is to get caught or
  • He would have to, he would have to get snake eyes to lose.
  • If you have to roll an eight and you roll an eight, you win.
  • You don't have to do the boning.
  • You have to look up a manual.
  • So I need to go big.
  • So then I have to defend his ridiculous score.

By way of goodbye.
