================================================================

*~*~* DO I REALLY HAVE A LONER *~*~*

Before the hand starts, everyone will look at their cards
and decide if they have a loner or not
If they have a loner, they should type out
in caps "LONER", or "NO" if they don't
If someone has a loner, everyone must pass & let them bid
If more than one person says loner first to bid gets to call
********the only exception is if the dealer has a loner
too then the dealer gets to call********

Now here is the twist.........if you call loner and
get to play it, & do not make it,
you do not get to call loners for the rest of the game
(no need to say loner or no anymore)
If you do make it, you may continue to call loners as
long as you make them
If anyone calls a loner & forgets to click alone that
is counted as a error (not as not getting it)
So you still can call out no or loner
If all say no, it's regular euchre without loners!


================================================================
================================================================

*~*~* DOUBLE DUECE *~*~*

When a team makes 2 points, whether it's by a set

you happen to be the dealing team, you must switch and
let your partner do the discard (or vice versa).
You will keep switching seats every time
your team scores 2 points.

If you forget to switch after making 2,
too bad...have to wait til next time
