Eric WagonerandClaude Opus 4.8 cfabb20537 Add shelves page to game library; refresh bggpipe export
Port the export's physical shelf layout (.wall/.orow/.ocell) into the
scoped embed.css so /mygames/?g=shelves renders the wall in true
proportions, using the cream board color and accent-purple links for
legibility on the dark theme. Includes a fresh bggpipe re-export (new
Etherfields and Red Dragon Inn titles, updated art). embed.js/embed.css
are untouched by the export.

<div class="card desc">Poetry for Neanderthals is a competitive word-guessing game where you can only give clues by speaking in single syllables. So, instead of saying &quot;broccoli,&quot; you&#x27;d say something like &quot;green thing you eat for live long and have good health.&quot; If you mess up and use a big word, such as &quot;vegetable,&quot; you get bopped on the head with a NO !Stick and you lose points.
The goal of the game is to score the most points by correctly interpreting words and phrases. The chosen Poet starts off the game with a Poetry Card and tries to get their teammates to say the listed word, using only words with one syllable within a 90-second time limit.
The team with the most points is the winner.
