BONGO - Bruno Faidutti

Hi Mr. Faidutti!
I wonder that noone ever mentioned your nice game before. Probably you remember that you introduced BONGO to a small group last year in Essen. We were looking for another player for "Ohne Furcht und Adel" and you were roaming around, so we asked you, not knowing you`re the designer of that game. By the way: my girlfriend always killed you while playing "Ohne Furcht und Adel", perhaps you remember ;-)
However, I tried to send you an email several times but there have been problems with a server, I don`t know why.
After "OFuA" you introduced BONGO. Some days ago I read the german rules and recognized, that there were differences to your explanation. For example: you said if there are three Rhinos and two Gnus, and we have to look for an animal, which appers ONE time, we should say "NOTHING". But in the german rules they say, the players have to say that animal, which isn`t on the table, which means Bongo (or Antilope, as you called it).
I don`t have the german rules beside me right now, but I`m sure there a one or two more differences. I`ll look for them, when I´m back home.
So, what should we believe? Of course we prefer your explanation ;-)
Is there a possibility to get the original french rule/english rule? I´ll try to send you another e-mail, perhaps it`ll work now. We´re looking forward to your answer, our email-adress: fraweb@gmx.de / fraweb@planet-interkom.de
Best wishes!
Frank and Alexandra - the prettiest murderer of the fair, as you said to me ;-)

Hello Frank (I answer in english even if I am not Bruno Faidutti)!
My german rules told me (if I remember correctly) that you only call for the third animal if the other two animals both appear in the required number(e.g. you are looking for 2 animals and there are two rhinos and two gnus, THEN you call Bongo). In your example you should really call NOTHING - that's what my german rules tell me.
Bongo is really a fun game!
