The caveat to our first game is we did not have time to finish it but we went into it knowing that reality. we made it to I think turn 10-11 and things got real message with all players intermingled in interesting ways. Loved the game. Just wish it was something I could get to the table more frequently. My recommendation if you want to play it more frequently is to set up a schedule well in advance. I schedule 4 games each year and am now up at game 17! People often ask me if it's my favourite game - I just say it's a game I really like but I know I'll never play it if I don't take the initiative to make it happen. 😀

by Fury12001 Thanks folks. My thought process was similar to @llmaynell, I thought that the whole specific space questioning method was meant to make the game easier for newbies. Whenever I play it we don't use that method. But good to know that it's supposed to be used to resolve dilemmas like this.But I am also yet to play with the blackbody and blank block, so maybe I will need to use the alternative mode more when I do that.
