1) I have no idea why we didn't do our standard breaks and titles with this review, I'm blaming it on recording really late and just really enjoying the game as we did so. We had played a bunch of it and sat down to record and apparently forgot all of our manners. 

2) I call the game a ladder climbing game at the start and then just keep referreing to it as a shedding game. Both terms are so often used together that it makes sense why I'd slip up like that but for clarity's sake: a ladder climbing game is one where you have to play consistently ascending (or descending) card values. A shedding game is one where you're trying to run out of cards first. Normally the two are linked as you're trying to get rid of you cards by playing higher sets together, etc.

3) At time of editing, we had not received anything saying that the origin of the game was incorrect. If I do get an update, it will be changed and noted here in these notes.
