I purchased this game as soon as it became available (and ended up becoming a consultant since it was the second SimplyFun game I'd purchased and that makes me an owner of WAAAAAY more SimplyFun games than most people on the planet).
The insert in the game (a huge fold-out monstrosity with rules and ads on it) indicates that there are 10 Liebrary Cards (the random scoring track movement cards which I typically ignore in Balderdash-esque games). However, my game came with only 7 such cards (3 "good," 3 "bad," and one odd). Is this what everyone else got, or are there actually 3 other cards?
Thanks in advance.

Randy,
I just found the game at a thrift store a couple of hours ago. This game contains six beneficial Liebrary Cards and four malevolent Liebrary Cards.
I hope I'm not too late!
May the dice roll in your favor,
Alfonzo

Thanks, Alfonzo. Was that the current "Discovery Bay?" version of the old SimplyFun version?
I, too, picked up one (SimplyFun) at a thrift store last week and the tape on the front of it said "1 card missing, $1." I need to combine and see how many cards I have now. Wonder if card collation was a problem.

The Discovery Bay edition. It's in a green box.

Mystery Solved (4.5 years after purchase)
When I found one of these in a thrift store noted as "1 card missing," I decided to combine my 7-card copy with this 9-card copy to see if I had 10 different library cards for random movement.
In doing this exercise, I finally noticed that a few of the cards felt thicker than others.
Lo and behold, these cards stick together (SimplyFun edition) to the point of not being able to tell there are two cards together. I eventually separated these thick cards and ended up with two complete 10-card sets after all.
