It's actually right in the rules insert. "for exampe, with 'Everybody Gets 1' you must keep all Creepers you get while drawing the cards you'll be giving to other players." -----Original Message----- From: fluxx-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fluxx-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Rev.

The card explicitly tells you to draw X cards and distribute them, rather than telling everyone else to draw in a sequence you select. > Flip it around -- if it said "everybody else has to draw and keep one card" they'd > obviously go to the other players, creepers and all, so this is exactly that > situation but with the bonus that you get to decide who gets what. The key difference there, of course, is the change in who's doing the drawing. I agree that a card phrased that way would inflict the zombie on the hapless person who draws it, but that's not what Everybody Gets 1 says or does. -- Robert Hood - Hixson, TN SJG MIB #8595 - Looney Labs Rabbit - Atlas Games Mook Next con: Hallowcon, October 26-28 - http://www.hallowcon.com _______________________________________________ Fluxx mailing list Fluxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.looneylabs.com/mailman/listinfo/fluxx
