Thanks! I understand that idea of the game more than the rules, but being that I run the game, I get to make the rules up as I go along, so that helps. It helps me, anyway. :) Can't speak for the boys! They get really confused when what they want to do a second time fails, when it worked the first.
I actually told them once, "If you run across a busy highway once successfully, does that mean you'll be successful if you do it again? No, it doesn't. What it means is that you were stupid, twice, and it will catch up with you."
I'm as surprised as anyone else that they keep coming back to me to run more games.

It sounds like you found a hidden talent!
