Must the teams remain constant throughout the game, or may a player switch from one team to another during the course of the game?
In regards to the above condition:
Which do you mean:
...it must be playable with EITHER more than two teams or two teams of three or more players.
OR
...it must be playable with BOTH more than two teams or two teams of three or more players.
THANKS!
Basically, it can not be JUST a partnership game, I.E. no card partnership games like Bridge or Tichu. It can support two teams of two, but it must not be the sole mode of play.
Make sense?
