Played Pandemic for the first time last night.

Based on my new knowledge, it looks like we're playing without the quarantine expert, but somebody may have collected four cards of the same color.

This is a great post.

I applaud you. I had the option to play, right after things started shutting down (so like Ides of Marchish?) and I just...couldn't bear the idea of it. Winning would feel hollow and losing would feel like an omen.

Glad to hear the good news though.

We had the Quarantine Expert, the Medic, and the ...Logistics dude who can build research stations at will. We never had an outbreak.
