Agreed, gonna definitely give him the chance to make things right
first, anything else would be heartless.  It was just funny that the
game in question (emira) has 12 spice tokens and he lost 7 of them.
Making the game basically unplayable unless I come up with my own
tokens and such.  The worst part is a few of the missing pieces are
the chits that go inside the bag, anything I try to substitute will
feel different.
