If the players are okay with it, I don't mind a switch provided it doesn't screw with turn order - especially if it's something easily done, like you wanted the Trainer to be training your Brand Manager and got them switched.

Santa Maria Pizza only gets 2 Lemonade, not 3, because they're only using an Errand Boy this turn? (not that it matters)

So two things:

a) As turns get more complex, if at any time during an X.3 turn you'd like a map update so you can see what's changed, please just yell in thread.

b) Please do try not to worry! It's a friendly game (because I'm much, much too cheap to put up any prizes).

Pausing at the start of PBS' turn, as I need to just check:

Did you mean 17-19? That would hit the same spread of houses, but Tekopo stole the 5-row plane away from you.

(Everyone else, please check your stuff looks correct, because I did this at a bit of a rush.)

perhaps this is an elaborate metaphor for how the rise of flight drastically altered the US societal landscape in the 1920s and its relation to diners at the time

(I recommend people read One Summer: America 1927, it's good)

Double-check part 2 - at present, I think Xango Blues Bar is going to need to fire someone (1 x Cart Operator, 2 x Pizza Cook, 1 x Brand Director, $15 discount) - PBS, did you want to undo the train or else nominate who's gone?
