Well you guys are quiet toNight. Is everybody dead?

I gotta say, it really hammers home the extent to which this game relies on trusting our fellow players. I mean, we do, but the source of illicit info is RIGHT THERE. It's an honour system and it's pretty awesome.

It absolutely is! (But don't give anyone ideas )

What I've always found fascinating is how couples manage to play this game and not give anything away. Every time Legate and Lommy play together, which is actually quite often, I imagine them trying very hard to keep their poker-faces and avoid looking at each other while they're at the computers. And same goes for all the other WW couples. I don't know how you guys do it, I think I would be instantly meta-read by my behaviour IRL during the game. Would anyone like to share the wisdom?
