the mark of the joker is suprisingly low.....
And player has found 13 cards????? how many are there going to be?!?! i;m having troublw remembering them as it is!
plus with the other bonuses you could get the silver chip without playing, so that puts it up to 170k without playing a hand!

ooo, I'm guessing you get the safe reward when you buy the Gun Game since the Joker is rewarded for having faith that it will be worth the money and the Safe is proving it is worth the money.

Ok- this game is going to get interesting with the favors for the dead.
It sounds from the numbers that we will all have a number of chances to do the favors in a week. I am thinking this starts with the live events.

Now if only the site would give me my chip, for having $60k in the bank, and my Club, for meeting the dealer I'd be set. But it won't, so I'm not.

Not sure why that's not working...

But as for this, you don't get the club from meeting Lucky -- you get it from visiting his profile .
So, log in, click the above link, and you should have your club.

I have noticed that sometimes when I visit Lucy's profile, it switches back from the club to the diamond.

Diamond is for "paying attention" - looking through the character profiles - reading the new bits as they show up, trying different random names.
I don't think you get both bonuses- so you should make certain you view Lucky's card just befoe reset and don't go randomly scrolling through others. I got 16K last reset and 5K of that came from the people who have quicklinked me. I figure between the buddies and having a club (for visiting Lucky's card) showing, I should get 10K bonus and not just 6 K...

Quote:
A full tarot deck consists of 78 cards: the minor arcana (56 suit cards) and the major arcana, also known as trumps (22 pictorial symbol cards). The minor arcana, somewhat like a deck of modern playing cards, consists of suits of wands (clubs), cups (hearts), swords (spades), and pentacles (diamonds). Each suit contains 14 cards: 4 court cards (king, queen, knight, and page) plus cards numbered from ace to ten.
The major arcana (wisdom cards) consists of pictorial cards numbered from 0 to 21. Many of the earliest tarot decks were designed by artists, such as the German, Albrecht Durer, who lived during the late 15th and early 16th centuries. The pictures, representing such subjects as the sun, death, the devil and a hanged man, symbolize natural forces and human virtues and vices. Insights are gained by interpreting the combinations formed as the cards are dealt out.

Naw, I diamond is for looking at Lucy's profile, and a club is for looking at thedealers, whichever you saw last is the one you'll have.

Yea, you only get those chips at saturdays at the reset, not immediately. They get added onto the 10k you start out with. You'll get your chips on saturday when the chip counts reset.
