Hey Jagged, this is great depth and insight. A few things should be better than you experienced (for instance new players should get a full set of ghost cards), but on balance you have identified the issues we face and came up with some nice solutions.

I'm tagging Hive account@blazekos Hive account@lilyrose and Hive account@nateaguila for visibility, we will be discussing your ideas and how to improve our flow.

This is great and thank you for taking the time to create this and for sharing it!!!
