...okay, I have to admit I was wrong. When I first got Tomoko Fuse's latest book, Floral Origami Globes, I wasn't very impressed by it and considered returning the thing, due to the tedious prospect of having to make at least 12 identical 2-piece modules for every finished kusudama. However, once I stumbled onto the concept of mix'n'match color schemes within each kusudama, I was hooked.

And now I have beads all over the floor that desperately need to be put away before tomorrow, when the cleaning lady sweeps through and the wombat-consort comes home from his trip, and I can't stop making kusudama. See, I've got all these odd pieces, and I think, "Well, instead of trying to rubber-band all these modules together, it'll be easier for me to make a few more so I can just assemble the entire kusudama and store it that way." And then I space out and fold something the wrong way, or grab the wrong color of paper without noticing it, and then I've got two *more* modules that need to be paired off and matched up, and then *another* kusudama needs to be made, and...

(I have no idea wtf I am going to do with all these kusudama. Maybe put them into a box and eBay them off that way. I managed to get rid of one this morning by using it as a space-filler in a box of jewelry. They're breeding like rabbits. Halp.)

The wombat-consort bought this game when it came out; I watched him play some of it, but don't know if he ever finished it. However, it came back to my mind recently, causing me to hunt down scans of an elusive "casebook" that came packaged with it (and now that I think about it, we probably have the actual thing downstairs if he hasn't shuffled the game off elsewhere aince then, but oh well).

Supposedly certain aspects of the game reflect the "real" events in the casebook. It's a rather crabbed, blotchy document, which invites me to attempt to type in a clear transcript.
