college is included in life.

even rounding up doesn't address the fact that you need 10 cards to make this anything more then a "draw a card" ability even if you have 30 ECs out you only drew 3 cards.

So? I don't want an OP'd random card. Unless u want me to make it that u multiply instead of divide. Plus it includes ur opponents too.

Any card that has any math involving the force of gravity (9.8 m/s) is pointless. you either draw one or none depending on how you round. Plus how are you going to expect young kids playing the game to know the force of gravity?

I'm not, it's supposed to be a fun card not an actual card idea.

A totally random card would be:

"Both players Draw X Cards"
Identifer: X= The Cards in your Deck.

SomeKittens · « **Reply #58 on:** May 09, 2011, 11:29:26 AM »

90% of the time X would be replaced with (16-number of cards in hand)

Why? The limit can only trigger at the end of the turn. That's how the game has always worked.

SomeKittens · « **Reply #60 on:** May 09, 2011, 12:38:47 PM »

The limit of 8 cards triggers at the end of turn. You can never have > 16 cards in your hand at any time.

I never heard that before. And it's not in the rulebook that I have and I have the newest one.

...Which is still five years old. Ask any elder.

After Nats last year, I believe, is when they officialized that rule. You can never have more than 16 cards in your hand (or 20 if you have Tables of the Law active) at any time. It's to help limit speed.

Warrior_Monk · « **Reply #64 on:** May 09, 2011, 02:23:45 PM »

It was also in effect after CA nats, but they weren't sure they'd keep it.

Minister Polarius · « **Reply #65 on:** May 09, 2011, 07:50:40 PM »

I've never heard the bit about Tables...

Nor have I. This is an exact quote from Rob's announcement about the rule change and it make no mention of an exception, in fact it "takes precedence over any instruction on a card".

Quote from: CactusRob

There is a new Hand Limit. The limit is that at no time may the cards in your hand exceed 16. This rule will take precendence over any instruction on a card. If you play a card that instructs you to draw cards you must stop at 16. During Discard Phase you must still reduce your hand to 8 or less.

I was told that the maximum hand size rule is: "Your maximum hand size is 2x your end of turn hand size."

Alex_Olijar · « **Reply #68 on:** May 10, 2011, 01:45:55 AM »

That's just a lazy abbreviation of the rule I guess.

browarod · « **Reply #69 on:** May 10, 2011, 01:56:47 AM »

I really don't see how it's "lazy", but w/e....

Minister Polarius · « **Reply #70 on:** May 10, 2011, 01:58:16 AM »

It's lazy because it's incorrect, but only in very rare instances would it matter. Of course, I don't see how "double your ending hand size" is faster or simpler than "16 cards."

browarod · « **Reply #71 on:** May 10, 2011, 02:08:49 AM »

I don't either, hence why I don't get why it's lazy, lol.
