Yes I have, and it would have been nice to know exactly how the scoring worked for each game before choosing. I knew five of the plays (!!! Yes, despite this not being my strong suit) without needing the answers, and I was trying to figure out whether I might do better taking the extra points in Orchestra as opposed to maybe lucking into some guesses in Balcony. I'll just play where I belong in this category....
