We're cleaning. We have lots of stuff. I've emptied the baby's room of almost everything, but I'm left with piles of stuff that doesn't have a home. One of the items in the piles are notes on how to keep score in blotte. I've kept them for more than a decade, because you can't play blotte without them, and I'm not sure any of us play often enough to have committed it to memory. Rather than trying to save the papers, I'm posting the scoring info here, for posterity.
For Trump
| Card | Points |
|---|
| Jack | 20 | | 9 | 13 | | Ace | 11 | | 10 | 10 | | King | 4 | | Queen | 3 | | 8 or 7 | 0 |
| For Non-Trump| Card | Points |
|---|
| Ace | 11 | | 10 | 10 | | King | 4 | | Queen | 3 | | Jack | 2 | | 9,8 or 7 | 0 | | .. |

Of course, I would still need someone to remind me how to deal the hands. :) I also have a note that indicate the lead goes to the person sitting to the left of the trump picker. I remember you play in pairs, sitting opposite your partner, and that all the cards 6 and below are removed from the deck before dealing.

THAT IS SO FREAKY! I WAS JUST THINKING TO MYSELF THAT WHEN WE SEE EACH OTHER MAYBE WE COULD PLAY BLOTTE SINCE I THINK YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE WHO REMEMBER HOW!!! FREAKY!
It's been so long, but I'm sure we could figure out the rules and all if we put our heads together. I totally forgot that it's a 4 person game. Is that true? I sort of thought I remember there being loads of us playing. But then again, I don't remember much about the game except that I laughed a lot.
