It was briefly mentioned that too many extra bits can reduce the
amount of people who will try a game. I've added a section to the talk
page to address this.

So far, I was thinking things like:
   1.  Standard deck of playing cards
   2. D6 or Treehouse die (There is a question if other dice would be
allowed, are D10, D8, D4, D20 common bits, or no?)
   3. Piecepack - (This is certainly a debatable extra, perhaps
someone could do a analysis of the percentage of people who own both
Icehouse Pyramids and Piecepack sets?)
   4. Martian Coasters
   5. Chess Board
   6. Backgammon Board
   7. Go Board?
   8. Any custom board, so long as it fits on two 8.5x11 sheets of
paper and is provided with rules?
   9. Colored Stones (ala Zendo)
