Despite the pain of the pun, it's about 8 times better than the latest DirecTV repurpose of the Back to the Future scene... is Christopher Lloyd really out of money already? I have to admit that as pun-friendly as I am (see especially author Spider Robinson), I didn't see this coming either; I was expecting a new rule with capacitance (gets full then discharges), e.g.: 'keeper limit 3/1 -- if everyone has 3 keepers in play, all players must immediately discard down to 1' -- another potential way to win with All you need is Love late in the game. The numerals allow X=X+1 to change it to a 4/2 KL. An HL version would be nice n' chaotic, given the 'immediately' part -- i.e. active player might have to suddenly discard during a multi-draw. Just like M:tG's Demonic Tutor however, I predict this would quickly get banned in a tournament setting... with Fluxx (even more than M:tG), you're often just 1 vital card away from winning... probably the first order of business is to track down Steal a Keeper and Lose a Keeper to protect "my precious" -Ankhst > > Just thought of another idea > > Keeper: Capacitor > > If you have this Keeper in front of you, instead of your first draw, > you may look through either the discard pile or the draw deck (but not > both) and choose a card.
