I don't believe it does. While an Outsider is defined as being a Game Object and an External Force is not, an External Force's ability to be a game object is nowhere specifically denied, nor is the External Force explicitly stated to be a different entity from the Outsider. The Outsider is a Game Object representing the External Force's projection into the game, which is not inherently the same as the External Force - but I see no reason why I as an External Force can't represent my own projection just fine. The rule contradicts the most obvious interpretation of other rules, but not the only conceivable one - and it leaves room for a less intuitive but valid reading, which thanks to the contradiction of the alternative is unambiguously correct even though it's silly and illogical. - teucer _______________________________________________ spoon-discuss mailing list spoon-discuss@xxxxxxxxx http://lists.ellipsis.cx/mailman/listinfo/spoon-discuss
