The Dominance of Order Act
WHEREAS everyone likes order, and there is no more lovely thing than a book of rules and a deck of cards, where each card has no numerical value, and
WHEREAS Set is just such a game involving a deck of 81 cards and if one card goes missing you have to spend upwards of 12 louise to buy a whole new game, and
WHEREAS the deck is built of cards that you have to try and order, not by type or number or color, but by matching a 'set' of three cards that have the same number of differences, and
WHEREAS Set with, its odd number of cards having three colors, three shapes, three different kinds of shading, and and three number patterns clearly reflects order, and
WHEREAS Florencia is the best Province, and as a smoke screen for our coolness we should impose or at least claim proper order in our lives by playing matching childish games, and
WHEREAS Set isn't really a game anything like orderly as you don't take turns and you routinely end up with an odd number of cards left over, now
WHEREAS proposing this bill makes about as much sense as trying to explain this truly amazing game, now
THEREFORE be it enacted by the Nimlet of the Province of Florencia, that this great province does hereby take Set under the metaphorical Florencian wing, take note of the fact that it is just good commerce at 12 louise (15 dollars) that the thing can get rendered completely worthless by the loss of a single card, and does hereby make Set the official game of Florencia.
