That's why I asked. The "I'll have to ask" response to Foxy Roxy
sounded like it was someone else, and since there were no sigs on
either message you'd pasted in, and they apparently were answered and
sent about the same time, I figured the same "someone" else gave all
the repsonses. This may also explain the contradictory repsonse give
on Street Scum. No biggie, I've just sent Jim another message
explaining the conflicting answers we've received and asking for a
final "2-out-of-3" ruling we can take to the bank.

As I said, I've told Jim we want a final ruling that settles the two
different answers the list has gotten from FASA. When I say I like the
Street Scum taking cyber as well as the rest, that's just my personal
opinion. I'm not trying to argue whether the rules say one way or the
other, just going by card text. The reason I vote for Street Scum
taking cyberware is that there's nothing else that causes you to lose
gear/cyberware, while there are a handful of other cards that will
take gear/weapon, gear/magic, gear/matrix, etc. I'm against any piece
of gear being given to a runner that will never be removed/lost save
for death of the runner himself. That's just MHO though.

Anyways, a 3rd and hopefully final ruling from FASA is pending.

Thanx, it's why we're here. Once FASA posts info about the list to
their page, the place should really be hopping. :o)
