moreResolved Question: Is there a difference between BLOKUS Classic & BLOKuS CLASSICS GAME?
I want to buy this game, but knowing little about it - I am confused by some of the listings on stores online. I know there are a few spin-off games, but I am interested in buying the original, main Blokus game.
Amazon has two versions of the original version, one for $30 plus shipping (retail $30) and another for $23.38, free shipping (retail $25). This is confusion as the boxes, title, and retail price is different between the two. Are they the same? Are the different? If so, how?

10 points for anyone who solves.
Blokus is a board game. The program version of the game is played on a square board divided into 10 rows and columns. Rows are labeled a-j and columns 1-10. Pieces made of square tiles are used. The tiles are numbered from one to three. the following two pieces will be used.
Piece A: ______
| 1 | 2 |
------------
Piece B: ______
| 1 | 2 |
------------
| 3 |
(sorry about the drawing, a is supposed to form two squares and b is supposed to form three)
The object of the game is to place the pieces corner-to-corner on the board. Edges cannot touch. Tiles cannot overlap. All tiles of a piece must fit on the board. The pieces must fit on the board. The pieces may be roted 90 degrees, 180 degrees or 270 degrees, (nothing else). Tile number one will always be the pivot tile.
Input: there will be 5 lines of input containing:
1. A 2 character string that gives the starting location in row-column order for piece a.
2. A tile number for piece a .
3. A second tile number to be used with both pieces. This is the tile number that will be used to link with piece a.
Output: For each input line print total number of ways the two pieces can link to the given piece using the rules above. If none, print 0.
Sample input
1. A1, 2, 1
Output:
1. 4

moreResolved Question: Are Blokus pieces two-sided?
I am constructing a home-made Blokus board game. (NOT FOR SALE PURPOSES, BUT AS A FAMILY PROJECT... PLEASE DON'T SUE ME) I have made the shapes (pieces) and was wondering if it matters rather the color should be on both sides or just one... Basically, by turning it over, some of the odd pieces could be played differently...
Any insight on this? Thanks.

moreResolved Question: Need a board game suggestion?
I'm a big fan of settlers of catan and ticket to ride. Blokus as well. I'm looking for a newer board game that works well with 2 players but also works well with 3+ players. I have all of the Carcassonne games with the exception of Hunters and Gatherers.
I usually browse boardgamegeek.com but thought I would try asking here for a change.
All suggestions welcome.
moreResolved Question: Where I can get a replacement Blokus piece for one I've lost?
Blokus.com told me to try learningresources.com, but they are out of blue, the color I need.I'm in the United States, so the offer to mail pieces in Australia doesn't apply to me.
moreResolved Question: Question on Blokus Game ?
How many choices does blue have for the first play in Blokus? The corner from which each color will play is established, and the clockwise direction of play is also established.
Any help will be appreciated. If you happen to have more time on your hands please explain (I am not too familiar with the game).
If you are curious, this is NOT a homework problem.
