CluckingBell, St John's is a transport square. You don't need to ask for picks, you need to roll the dice and do the appropriate task.

Nope, CluckingBell got all her picks. However, Jammin Jenny needs a pick for her 3rd roll.

I am sorry about this CluckingBell. I realised later that it must have been a different square but I didn't have an opportunity to fix my post.
Coralie wrote: "I am sorry about this CluckingBell. I realised later that it must have been a different square but I didn't have an opportunity to fix my post."No worries! I zoomed right by the airport without even noticing it, so I easily could have started from the wrong St. John's when it came time to make my next move. Now I know to watch out for city vs. airport!
