Whew! So let me ask you — too hard? Sufficiently difficult? Categories work? Categories didn't work?
Thanks for playing!
As the only player this week, I feel I must chime in. I enjoyed this round and thought there were just enough "I have 5 for the category I perceive here" to make me have to suss out which made more sense (obviously, it took a few iterations). Clark being golden age when we also had a silver age group wax vexing for me since I was looking for more specific categories (e.g. JSA founders).
DeleteAs a matter of process, I really thought I had a good cosmic riff going with Hal Jordan, Scott Free, Adam Strange, and Adam Blake, then of course I realized that was too many Adams and ended up removing both of them as I regrouped.
