Hey Gang,

Earlier in the week or so, the question on whether or not
Cyber-psychosis was a one shot deal or not came up. Well, I got a
ruling from the Jim Nelson on it and he says that it sticks around for
more than one turn. So basically, it either kills the runner, he drools
a lot, or you get rid of it (via Luck of the Irish or similar). This
can be a lot nastier than Infected Chrome.

And cheaper and nastier than Infected Chrome. For this reason, we ruled
that the card has its effect only once (one roll). Anyway, this card
killed a runner 75% of the time on the first roll. With this kind of
odds, why bother ??
