				I am in two games with map-021  --- 
 
map size is about half the size of a regular map 
 
but  the land and animal cards decks have not been reduced and
 
are out of balance with the size of the map
 
this is going to create the possibility of an endless loop   
 
the games are  12886 and  12955
 
see the messages in game  12886 -- the land deck is almost gone
 
and we are still in animal  deck A 
 
game 12886 is the game that will have a problem first 
 
 
for the record -- it is a nice map |

				Given that there's no way (right now at least) to reduce the number of animal cards and/or land cards based on the size of the map, I'd question your assessment that it's a "nice map."   
 
 
To me it looks like that map is much too small to support three players without dramatic changes to the card count of the decks.
 
 
If it becomes necessary for one of us to intervene, reply to this thread.

				| Argh... I made that map. I had made with the idea for a 2 player game only. However, as noted, the decks are too large to match the map. I'll take it off being public to prevent others from getting into your situation. |

				thank you for the replies ---
 
and I agree it should be removed from public use
 
 
in game 12886 the 3 players have agreed to work together to
 
complete the game |

				We are going to hit the same problem in game 13082.
 
 
If it is at all possible to manually reduce the number of animal cards could you do so please. With half the normal number we should be able to avoid too much trouble.
 
 
If not ill ask the other players if they want to kill the game. |
