It's your rule, man. If you want it followed you would better serve your own needs to make it clear.

you're joking right? Or did you actually miss the 100% cristal sparkling clear and obvious fact that that "rule" was intended as a J.O.K.E :-)

that clear enough for 'ya?

JurijD, not sure where the sarcasm towards Loser is coming from, but it's really not warranted or constructive for the situation. He was simply expressing a completely valid question about a game rule that was vague at best. You will learn if you host very many games that these house rules are the #1 source of confusion and conflict among players. It's very easy to have a game ruined over what can seem to be simple misunderstandings. Intentionally confusing the issue by placing "joke" or bogus rules is just asking for trouble. Everyone likes a joke, but make sure everyone knows it's a joke. You will regret it in the long run if you don't.

Not trying to sound like I am coming down on you, cause I am not. Just trying to share a little experience to help you avoid a bad situation.

Sarcasm??? Where ... eee, get it off me!!! Phew, glad u told me that was there, I don't like sarcasm on me, it always give me a rash.

hehe excuse me but... well I can't believe that anyone over 5 years would confuse that joke with a rule And anyone who does... well I can't say he or she is welcome to join the game because if you can't take a joke you're too geeky for this game I think that Loser is just a fan of George W. and was hurt by my remark You people take this game too seriously....

And why didn't u trip over the : Don't play SE IV and drive. The consequences can be dire. "RULE"

You're coming down on me? Where? How? Do I need to take an aspirin before u do ? Do you have some kind of anti-grav device?

P.S.: Thanks for the help, really don't need any in that area. Oh and I really hope this is the end of this "subject" because this discussion is as silly as anything on FOX.
