There are only 3 cards which aren't going to be in play...
Odds are they aren't Wizards...
I'm all for an all out attack on EB.
It'd keep the heat off of me.
I already told Spidey that I will run a game of this when this one ends, and I'm going to run live bids, it will take longer, but not much longer (basically like one additional round per hand, where you bid instead of playing a card.)
I'd be open to any other ideas as well, like highest bidder goes first, or high bidder picks trump instead of random. Of course that would lead to higher sets, given you might bid high and then lose a lot if you don't get the bid (and you gambled that you'd get the trump)... It'd be interesting to say the least.
