In the game "Game 2871: Buses R Us", at least as I write this, for the three of us who had choosen line expansion, let us all expand our lines by one (1) more than the maximum.

At least as I write this the maximum is two (2) as all players have exactly two (2) buses, except striking_cobra who only has one (1). After we finish line expansion ElDavid will be buying a bus increasing his fleet to three (3) buses, but that doesn't happen until *after* the line expansions.

So even though the maximum buses is two (2), ElDavid placed 1 line, JeffyJeff placed 2 lines, and mbouzada has just started placing 3 lines.

I wouldn't recommend reseting the game as we are 1/2 way through it Smile, but if there is a bug, for future games.

Ok, it's happened again.. same game as base topic. However one slight difference... the person buying a bus this round was one who would not increase the max.

So in this case the max is 3 (players "Adriaan Pieters" and ElDavid both have 3 buses, the rest of us less). However if you look at the gamelog:

mbouzada placed 3 lines (Tue Jan 31, 2006 2:07 pm)
JeffyJeff placed 4 lines (Tue Jan 31, 2006 2:31 pm)

(it should have been 2 and 3, not 3 and 4).

Is this a 5 player game? The rules are different for 5 players

You are correct! Thanks! It's burried (well not that bad, guess I just didn't look hard enough) on the rules page "Rules: Line Expansion", heading "Rule for Five Players".

It simply says to add one (1) to the normal max, and that this only applies to line expansion.

Interesting rule difference, but it's good to know it's not a bug!
