Andy is quoted in the Wiki, discussion page, Talk:Fluxx as saying 'The key point here is that goals are the most instant of all the cards in Fluxx. Every other "instant" action takes a lower precedence, unless the card specifically states otherwise (like Larry or the Potato). The initial ruling here would have undermined what I consider to be the foundation of Fluxx: you meet the goal, you win immediately.' But consider this situation: The Cheese Shop goal is in play, and there are two players who have no cards in hand or anything else. I play 'Everybody Gets 1', draw some cards, and am supposed to give 1 to each player. The moment I give a card to one of the players who had none, the other wins. Are we happy with this? Or, I have one card in my hand and it is Jackpot. I play it, and now have nothing because I haven't yet carried out its instruction to Draw 3. Do I win? Andrew
