Epic Game Nights at the Dewey House

We were playing Bang! tonight and I had the world's most epic turn.  The Sheriff turned over the Fistful of Cards and it was the one where you draw from the discard pile and discard to the draw pile.  I had one of the cards in front of me where you get to draw three cards, and one of the cards I drew with that was another card that lets you draw three cards as well ... then I had an Emporio, where everyone gets another card.  By this time, I had gone through the entire discard pile and we had to figure out what to do.  We decided that meant the mine was mined out and we would start playing normally now (because you could end up with this weird loop of using a Wells Fargo and Emporio and stuff over and over, switching between the draw and discard piles).

By this point, I had approximately 6 bajillion cards in my hand and I was kind of disappointed I didn't have a Volcanic (where you can shoot as many Bangs as you want instead of the usual one.)  I Panic'd several cards from people, and at some point I stole a card from the Sheriff ... and it happened to be a Volcanic!  I shot Carolyn a few times and killed her, then got to the Sheriff and used up the rest of my Bangs and a Duel ... and ended my turn with 3 cards in my hand (which is how many hit points I had ... it didn't matter, because I was the guy who can hold any number of cards in my hand.  But it was interesting.  The next guy killed the Sheriff and the game was over.

BUT DUDE IT WAS AWESOME.

Carolyn looked at the discard pile when I was done with my turn and counted up 31 cards.  In my turn, I got 31 cards discarded, not including the fact that I had drawn through the entire discard pile in the <i>first half</i> of my turn.




Oh man.

Game nights at our place are EPIC.
