Focus When Chop Moved

Question

• All the 1's are played on the stacks.
• Alice clues number 1 to Cathy, touching a card on slot 3. (This is a Trash Chop Move.)
• Bob clues blue to Cathy, touching all cards in Bob's hand.
• What notes should be written on Cathy's cards?
• What should Cathy do next?

Solution

• After Alice's Trash Chop Move, Cathy's chop moved to slot 2.
• Bob's clue has normal Chop Focus, and is focused on slot 2.
• There are no blue cards in the discard pile, so it is a Play Clue on a blue 2.
• The blue 1 on slot 3 is still trash.
• The other blue cards are from Good Touch Principle assumed to be blue 3, 4 and 5, but the order is not known.
• Slot 4 and slot 5 are no longer Chop Moved, as they now have been touched by a clue.
• Cathy should play the blue 2.
