I just have to chime in. The Rules For FLUXX In Detail clearly state. "When a new rule is played, place it face up near the Basic Rules. If it contradicts a New Rule already in play, discard that rule. New rules take effect INSTANTLY, so ALL PLAYERS must IMMEDIATELY follow the rule as required." I know the next line states that other player may have to discard but I believe that the statement is truly quite clear. New rules are instantaneous and all players are required to comply immediately. I have never been in a game where the "Turn" player gets to ignore any portion of a New Rule. Just my 2 cents worth. > From: aranders@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: Re: [Fluxx] Why You Can't Apply the Hand Limit During Your Turn > Date: Wed, 10 Oct 2007 19:45:17 -0400 > To: fluxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > > > Hand Limit 2 > > If it isn't your turn, you should only have 2 cards in your hand. > > If you have extra cards, discard them immediately. > > > > During your turn, you may ignore the Hand Limit, as long as you > > discard all but 2 of your cards when you end your turn. > > > On Oct 10, 2007, at 3:15 PM, James Hazelton wrote: > > > > What part of the Hand Limit does the "During your turn" player > > (hereafter known as the "turn player") get to ignore? > > He gets to ignore the directions in the second sentence: "If you > have extra cards, discard them immediately."
