There's 月濃茶, in which case the 月 makes first 濃茶, and then 3 薄茶 are made. The 月 also drinks 濃茶, so they have to go to the waiting 畳 just after they sort the bowl, and then go back while 拝見. Before dumping the water, swirl it around like in 天目. First 花 will clean 棗 and put it in 火窓, second one will switch positions (茶杓 on 水指, 茶入 on 棚, 棗 in position). Third one also has to do something, I think, but I forgot what it is. There's 拝見 of 茶入 etc., so no それい with the 水次.

Generally, when picking up the 建水 from before the 点前座, you turn as you always turn, not in 建水's special way.

• No folding of the ふくさ in the group, since it is in the 茶箱.
• おりすえ can be stacked onto 茶箱 to take away.

• For as many people as you like (even more than seven), just add the sufficient number of ふだ.
• 雪 eats sweets, 月 drinks tea and 花 makes tea. The game ends as soon as one person did all 3 roles.
• Because there's so many people, only 初客 and 亭主 switch positions at the end, the rest leave, potentially, with the wrong 扇子.

• 5 people, all of whom do flowers! 亭主 brings the 花台, then the first guests does the middle vase, the second and third the left and right vases, and then the remaining guests the remaining vases (we had one hanging from the 床柱 and the ceiling).
• Then second guest does お香, which is then put in the 床 as well (quite busy!)
• There's no 炭, and it goes straight into 花月!

• Lit. throw in. It means that there's no 変えふだ, so there's a chance that the same person drinks all the teas.
• Because of that, the おりすえ needs to be returned to the 花 before the tea is picked up, so that the 花 can also draw a ふだ.

• This is a very fun one: The first guest is assigned 貴人, and only for him the 貴人茶碗 is used. For all the others, the 共茶碗 is used.
• Because of that, you need to know who will drink before you make the tea, so here it happens when the 月 puts the 茶碗 in their 畳.
• ➡️ rough notes

• 花月 is also possible in 4.5, in which case the changing 畳 is a bit annoying, especially for the 3rd guest to get out, but otherwise it works pretty normal
• If the おりすえ travels in a 4.5 mat room, the ふだ lives 1 line away from the border, the おりすえ 3, and 5 when it's in waiting position. In the 8 mat setup, however (for example, in 雪月花), it's 2 lines for the ふだ, and 5 or 7 lines for the おりすえ!
