Sorry! Not really 'education, but 'educational'- Cadoo- the rules!

[miljee]

Just been playing Cadoo with Dss 5 and 7 (the 5 yr old plays in a team with a grown-up!). It is a really good game (esp when bought at Oxfam, new, for 3 quid...) but a question about the rules. If I throw a 'combo', but the other player/team wins ie guesses what I'm drawing/acting etc, the rules seem to say that I still get to choose where my counter goes on the board (and the 'winner' gets to put his on top). Why? Surely, even if it's my combo card, if he wins, he should get to choose? Am I being completely thick here?! TBH we, as a family, play our own version of Cranium too as the official rules are too hard to remember after a couple of Pinots!
