Set Tattoo

If you’ve never played Set, you’re missing out on a fast paced brain-exercising card game. I have several friends who are hardcore about their set playing, and they’re wicked good at it too (I tend to just sit there and stare). Michelle sent in her Set tattoo that was done on her ribcage. She got a “dissimilar set” which reminds her that things don’t need to fit in to a “whole”. She says that it’s not the best executed tattoo, but I still think it’s awesome.

    I've played set many times, and that doesn't look like a dissimilar set at all. Am I wrong?

  3. Carissa says

    I understand now. It is a valid set, yet dissimilar. My bad.

    Yep, dissimilar = most traits (color, shape, number, fill) are different, rather than the same. I LOVE the tattoo! She should have gotten different fills for maximum effect. :)

    Thank you! The reason I didn't go with the different fills is because I didn't like the way an outline looked on my ribcage especially once i realized (a few minutes in) that I wasn't with the most skilled "artist". My bf did a similar set (all single red diamonds with different fills). I need to have mine fixed to get the uniformity. I have some other pretty geeky tattoos though:)
