I personally think that a lot of the confusion comes from M:TG, where you
declare your attack phase, and your opponent is given time slot to cast
spells. I imagine that a lot of you also play Magic...

anyway, It was interesting to note that the artwork depicting CoP is an
Ork/Troll in a snowstorm in beach attire. Seems to suggest that the card
should be used after the runners are chosen etc...

but I keep wondering why there's so much debate going on... doesn't anyone
actually mail fasa to get answers? or is this going on while waiting for
answer?

oh, and I have a question... the FAQ states that media chick (gotta love the
name) can be used more than once per turn. does that mean you can pay 6
nuyen, take cake walk, and win the game? or is it 1nuyen per media chick in
play?
