Report history
It's unclear if winning a trick is a good or bad thing.
In the BGA adaptation, since the player with the highest score wins the game, the point are scored in a negative way.
So you should try to maximize your score which is the same as minimizing your points.
But could be an issue for sorting winner with GBA system?
I added some warning in the rules wiki for the french version, but I don't have the right to change the english version...
All that could really be done on BGA is adding some kind of "help" tooltip which explains this. Or perhaps display the current leader or ranks somewhere (on the scoreboard after every hand, for example).
"Points" could also be changed into "minus points", but I think that would only create extra confusion.

[Object of the game]
