In regards to Huntress' Expert Tracker, when it says "Huntress may cut opponent's Draw Pile. Discard to the Dead Pile the card cut to." Do you discard the card that would be face out or the one that is face down?  I never thought this would be a problem, but when I was playing last night my friend played (his dc team  :P) and he played this card. IMO the card to discard is the one face out but he thought it should be the one face down (not sure if that was because it truly was his opinion or because the face out card was a 2  ;)) In any regard I would love some clarification on this.

Thanks Guys!

Turn over the top part of the stack that he cuts to, and the card that's face up is your winner. ;)

First of all.....damn...fast response  ;D

Second...thats what I figured. I thought typically (poker style) cutting the deck for high card was that way.

I'm betting he was messing with me since the card was so low.....

Thanks

Just to be clear, when you cut the deck, having ONLY cut the deck, the visable face card is the discarded card, right?  You DON'T flip the top card of the lower stack, correct?

yeah, I think that's what he meant and this is how I've always played it. I figured 2 things: 1) that's how we always cut to see who goes first. 2) that way you're not revealing 2 cards.

That's how my friends and I always played it too, mostly for the same reasons. Just making sure that wasn't another rule we got wrong. Speaking of, if you play Expert Tracker in OPO, does it just discard a card from your draw pile randomly?

Yeah that's how I've always played too, but he's a little different, lol, like a lot of friends Im sure we all have.


As for the OPO, I think thats an interesting point Steve.
