How many are unique stories? Seem to be a ton (tonne for us metric boys) of birthday/China stories that just seem to overlap. Not that I care really, but same or similar stories only count for one point.

msc finally relinquishes his iron grip on the lead, and gcreptile takes over the mantle of "He Who Must Be Challenged". Meantime, I'm having Maytime Tiffin delivered to the changing rooms, and leafing through old copies of National Geographic......

Always thought the Drop 40 bonus was too low imo. 26 yo cancer mum nobody unique joker = 30 points. Drop 40 70+ yo joker = (currently) 20 Points. Still no positive disincentive to pick those FFBI types.
