I was listening to the episode commentary for "Shindig" and Jane Espinson said that the rules for the card game that Simon, Jane and Book were playing are posted on some firefly website that i can't seem to find. Does anyone know where I can find them?

I think there was something at the official site at one point, not sure if it is still there or not. Sorry, don't have a link.

To help you with your search, I believe the name of the game is "Tall Card". If you do find it, let us know. I'd be glad to whip up a set of cards that could be printed out on cardstock.

It's also been mentioned in another thread here:

...and at the quasi-official boards:

I tried following the links in the prospero board thread and they seem to be dead. If anyone else has a more complete set of rules, I will gladly create a card set based on those rules for free download.

Well, I just read through the extensive discussion on Tall Card in the original prospero board quoted above.

I think I've got enough to go on to create a set of cards that can be played with LuxLucre's rules. I'll have a go and then post it as a PDF to my website.

No huge files like the Firefly board game this time, though.

Yeah, Steamedbao3 already made a set of tall card cards, we just haven't had a chance to use em yet. I'm hopin' he'll be doin' my chores for a while.
