Implement rules for Nertz card game

NERTZ!

A card game thats like multiplayer solitare.

Quick project that I did after talking to an old family friend about it.

Project will be split into 3 parts:

Coding the game (finished)

I will write the rules for the game in python while my friend writes a java version

Coding server {work in progress}

Thinking of using event driven model, I started writing some code but I will probably have to change things up since client code must run in safari browser on ipad

UI

This is the hard part for us since neither of us have any experience with UI. Our idea is that we will run our program inside a touch enabled browser and connect to external computer on lan that acts as a server.

Example

$ python
Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Sep 15 2010, 16:22:56)
