[s-b] Work is sucking the lifeforce from me--I mean, more than usual |
Right. I rule TRUE on the cfi. While it is true that there are many many examples of card games where cards which are laid down don't leave the player's possession, or even in some cases the player's hand, there's still one thing they have in common--it's awfully hard to lay cards down which have already been laid down without picking them back up again. Common usage is a necessary evil, and it's certainly applicable in this case. As picking the Cards up is not otherwise allowed for by the Rules, and the act of picking the Cards up would modify the game state, I'm going to have to rule that it can't be done. I leave the Upper House--TPR and whoever is entering the Upper House once Wonko gives us results can deal with the appeal on their own. Plus I'm Hiding Under a Rock in a few paragraphs, so it doesn't really matter anyway. I, obviously, fail to vote on the most recent Ballot. I draw a card. As I'm not /playing/ Investment, it still works regardless of tomato-juice-stainedness and I get 11 points (and probably a copy of the Useless Card, unless Deck Replenishment kicks in). All you people with tomato actions really ought to roll the neccessary dice, even if it's going to turn out you can't actually do what you did :P I cease to hold the Ministry of Justice, and apologize for leaving it a bit of a mess. I'm sure there's more, but I can't think of what at the moment. I make myself Hiding Under a Rock for 1 (non-n)week. --Araltaln, wishing he could do that in real life _______________________________________________ spoon-business mailing list spoon-business@xxxxxxxxx http://lists.ellipsis.cx/mailman/listinfo/spoon-business
