3. PHASE 1: Fill your Purse!(2 Weeks, or 3 days for each Topic)
After the Signup phase, the Organizer will hand out random pairings for each stack of Cards, in each of the 4 Topics.
(If there is an odd number of players in one stack, the one who gets a bye gets a lucky free win. The Organizer will make sure, if possible, that the same player won't get more than one bye in Phase 1)

- You may use up to 2 copies of each card (if you have 2x any card, then you may use it 4 times, or 6 times for 3x any card)
The winner of each match choses 3 cards in the according Stack, the loser gets the other 3.
If a match doesn't happen the organizer may chose a winner if that player was clearly more active trying to find a time shedule.
If no one was clearly more active, then both players lose. -> The organizer choses the 3 best cards in the according stack and both players recieve the remaining 3.
If a player is not happy with the cards he recieved, he may choose to drop out after Phase 1.
