This thread is making me dumber with each post...

This is exactly what I said during the steroid era of baseball!

a_b, you seem like a nice guy... but it seems like every time I enter a thread with a rules question, you're in it, passionately (and relentlessly) making a totally incorrect argument backed up with spurious logic. Most of the time, your case is based on convoluted rules-lawyering, stemming from some hyper-sensitive semantic interpretation of one random word or phrase from the rulebook/PAC/card. Worse, your wonky view usually violates the clear intent of the rule or power in question.

Sorry to be a dink, but I think you really need to review the current rules and take them for what they are, without an Albanian thesaurus in hand. Yes, they're kind of a mess and far from perfect, but the rules don't support the tortured logic you often apply to them.

I don't think either of us would have much fun if you were judging my games, frankly. Let's just say there would be... disagreements.

Boy howdy, agreed.

See, for a_b, haranguing over rules is part of the fun of HC (by his own admission). He doesn't seem to realize (or care) that his "fun" makes people want to put their heads through walls.

Thank you Anthony, I always find you very entertaining as well
