Play in order of lowest card first:

Aqua 6
Weez 58
Argus 65*2
AJ 98
Exeter 103

Aqua decides on a tactical play to ditch a low card, playing his 6 to bust row 3 for 1 point! smile

Weez suddenly finds her row 3 base obliterated but is relieved to find a new row 3 base which serves just as well. wink Argus accompanies her there. smile

AJ and Exeter target row 4, playing high at this early stage. Never a bad plan wink

Aqua goes first, playing a card he set up last round! grin

Exeter sees a great opportunity and dusts off his 26. smile Weez inspired by his dusting follows him onto the row! grin

Argus has a great opportunity of his own, happily polishing his 67 for display. wink AJ follows it distantly with his 94 filling the row. smile

Argus 29
AJ 33*5

Row 1 has the most land available and everyone who wants a patch of their own comes flooding in! Trouble is there are 4 land grabbers and only 3 plots. Aqua gets the plot with a pond, Exeter the one with the big tree, Weez gets the one with the gently sloping yard grin and Argus is out of luck, being swept away in a 6 point landslide! sad

AJ gets a nice new house on the row 2 development. smile

Weez can now start to breathe again as her 90 lands in the last space on row 2! grin

Exeter charges to the front of the queue of potential bustees. Is that a word? wink He chooses to bust row 4 for 3 points leaving Argus & AJ feeling fairly relieved, smile whilst Aqua tucks in at the end.

Weez is even more relieved as her 82 lands in the last spot of the new row 2. grin

Play in order of lowest card first:

Argus 40*3
Weez 42
Exeter 52
AJ 71
Aqua 102

With only 1 space every card is a gamble. eek

Argus is first. Not a bad option as he has a card under 82 so he takes the only space available! grin

Weez also has a card under 82 but unfortunately is just two places late to the table and thanks to Argus's late gift is forced to break the row for 8 points. I guess it could be worse. rolleyes

Exeter and AJ collectively breathe huge sighs of relief as they follow her onto the row. wink

Aqua decides to take his medicine now figuring that it might well taste much worse later! So he plays his 102 for a 7 point bust. wink

Both AJ and Aqua's play suggests they would be much happier if someone chose to play before them but are resigned to a bust if needed. Aqua grants AJ's wish and takes the 3 points from row 2. wink

This play however scuppers Weez & Argus who were intending to play on row 2. rolleyes Instead Weez busts the new row 2 for 7 points eek with Argus heaving a heartfelt sigh of relief at a very narrow escape! wink

Exeter decides to bust row 4. Either he feels it is inevitable and best done now.. or he is still feeling under the weather and not thinking straight! grin And he takes his 12 point medicine with good grace. grin

Play in order of lowest card first:

Exeter 10*3
AJ 63
Argus 69
Aqua 88*5
Weez 99*5

Lots of open space but not many card options to fit them. rolleyes

Exeter sees a 1 point row and jumps in quickly, barely gets his feet wet! wink

AJ & Argus double up the points on row 2. smile

Now Aqua and Weez either opt or are forced to play high. But Weez plays very high so Aqua is duped into playing first. Much to everyone's relief he clears row 3s 11 points! eek Weez can breathe again. wink

Quite a bit of space now but no control wth

Play in order of lowest card first:

AJ 62
Aqua 86
Exeter 89
Weez 92
Argus 96

AJ goes first this time, row 1s vistas welcoming him with open arms! grin

Everyone else's final cards lie between 77 and 99 and so fall on row 3.. 'cept there is only room for 3 cards and Argus cops the final 9 points of this round! sad

RESULTS END OF ROUND 3

Weez = 16 point grin (15 points this round)
AJ = 30 points smile (0 points this round)
Aqua = 30 points smile (22 points this round)
Argus = 50 points sad (16 points this round)
Exeter = 56 points sob (17 points this round)
