Of course, all of this can be solved simply by leaving the game as is. :) I believe Thomas made a good point in that it plainly comes down to honesty with yourself / others.
Do you want challenge? Well have challenge then. Do you want a lighter or more palatable gaming experience for your particular needs? Well you can have that too. :) To also add a bit here about the current state of the tarot cards; The diamond cost allows you to keep one tarot card while reshuffling another. I.E. the reason for the cost now is not for reshuffling itself, it is to allow you to keep a favorable option while discarding a less favorable one. So in essence, you can take your chances freely reshuffling both cards and losing a favorable option as well as one you do not like. Or you can spend diamonds to keep the favorable option. So I question at this point whether this current scheme is really a loophole or not. Regardless though, why not just do as Dark does and keep both options if you want a challenge, and if you need a lighter or more friendly gaming experience, then simply allow for what is already available now in the game? Not to sound cliche here but I'm really not sure why people simply just can't live and let live when it comes to games? :) Laters and happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate!

Say for example there were 20 cards in the deck, every card that was removed, thus making that particularcondition or event not to occur in an endless game gave a %5 reduction in coins gained from zombies. That way players could still get the challenge, but there would be a bonus in the game to those who wanted the full range of conditions available, they would get more coins and thus earn their weapon upgrades faster, ---- though equally being a percentage bonus it would not bar players without those conditions from earning them either. Of course, you could have free mode or condition setting, but to be honest I rather like the random idea in the tarot cards, and I believe part of their point is that you don't know from game to game what the background conditions are, thus making eaceh game of what is essentially an arcade game a bit more unique, some with faster zombies, some with zombies that are more aggressive, some with zombies that give coin bonuses etc. Of course, Somethinelse would need to know that there were players who's hearing problems caused the background conditions to be difficult, in order for them to make this sort of change.
