All three times the ID cards appeared, there were four. (I checked back and counted to make sure.)
I know there were 4 cards, but 5 lanyard ropes. I should have clarified
I really can't see what you're talking about. (⌒▽⌒) I'm still counting four. There are four metal pieces for four ID cards and eight "sides" of the lanyards, which makes up four loops.
Oh well, then it's just me and the uke's lil secret
he was holding 5 lanyards, but there were only 4 recruits...
