In order to use Guard, both runners have to be "present" - either on a
shadowrun or in the safehouse together (or intercepting together). I'd
probably not allow Matrix damage to be guarded.

You declare a shadowrun on Loki's Black Book.
Dvixen, realizing you stand a good chance of taking the objective and
winning, plays a Change of Plans. Bang, now you're running against your
own Milk Run.
You decide you like this winning thing, and play your own Change of
Plans on yourself. Now you're running against the Book again.
I decide I hate you and play a Wild Goose Chase. :P

Sure. They still deal double Pistol damage, of course.

Yeah. Makes mages seem much weaker than shamans, honestly. (I'd rather
have a 5/5 spirit that's good for two or three Challenges than a 10/3
mage that turns back to 2/3 on the next one.)

Sure. Have a floppy disk.

Yes. No need to shout. Remember, you can get GAQed.. and GAQ your
opponent yourself.
Sudden realization: GAQ is utterly useless against Red Widow.

All of the above. Just remember, the Bountyman can get cacked, too (not
to mention Hitmanned or Stevened.)

I think it's fine as it stands... I'd limit to being used only before a
Challenge is revealed, but that's just me.
