Hee hee.  Now if fire made you lose hit points, and having zero hit points 
was a Bad Thing, this wouldn't be so easy.  What a coincidence this races 
prop has that as part of what it does...

Yes!  I am the master of loopholes!
Actually, the moves "do not take place until the Type is no longer Cats and 
Dogs", to quote Rule 405.  And the type changes every time the weather is 
updated, and it's updated on the 1st and 6th nday.  Which means that it just 
now got updated again; and if it's not Cat's and Dogs again, said moves now 
take place.

*cackles insanely*

Let's see... drinking my way to victory, jumping into flames unharmed, 
concentrating now to warp me to a new position later, and now guessing 
numbers for free.

Funny how that can be done, even when he's not on leave anymore.  It's not a 
bug, it's a feature?

Well, it's 12:40 AM my time now, so I think this counts as tomorrow.

Eh?  "XXX FIXME"?  Is that a reminder to yourself, or a command to me?
And while on the topic, can I hear from everyone what needs to be fixed?

I give 1 point each to Anything McGee, Baron von Skippy, bd, Bridgeweaver, 
Glotmorf, Rob, Sheeba, The Voice, and Wonko, the players who appear active 
and had to put up with my lack of doing things right.  I give the remaining 
6 points to Sheeba for getting the first unanimous vote I know of.  I still 
think the Unanimous Yes prop is a bad thing, though.
And since this in a private forum (witness the general lack of slurring), I 
shall repost this publicly.
