-Well, so change the trap: whenever a new mole is placed, there's a 1 in 3 chance that it dies immediately and the trap goes away. Or the trap triggers the next time a mole is placed. Or it could be the "Damn Sniper" trap, which kills any mole that crosses a certain row or column.-

-No, that's a slow, lingering death for the moles right now. Perhaps they can discard, draw, and play card combos, so they could toss down some OO sets and save themselves. Until the player who laid the trap comes to see who got stuck in it.-
