[edit] Confusing rules; general structure comment

Thank you for writing this article -- this is the kind of game that our family loves to play together.

This article seems to have been written pretty quickly and is a bit sketchy on the rules, using bullet points and abbreviated language where a detailed explanation would be most helpful. The 45 penalty points and the "long game" method are especially confusing. Penalty points in general, and who scores which points when... I'm just not sure how to play.

The structure of this article overall seems a little scrambled: it would seem to me to make more sense to put History first, and combine Rules and Play into a more detailed Play section, possibly with some examples.
