Uh oh, Consultation 2 is plagued! What are we to do? Now it's infected my
8th point! Now they are infecting repealed Rule 44! Oh no! The virulence of
each is up to 10 and they still aren't dead! Now 10^2+10^2+10^2=300 more
things get infected next nweek unless someone will pay 25m!

To counter the plague, our best bet is to pay the obligatory 25m per player
each nweek. Someone create a "Contract Club" like the Pocketbook club and
force us all to save ourselves!
