Could we keep that kind of crap off-list, guys?

No, not by standard rules (as they've already pointed out, but I felt
like getting in my one post for the day:). While I can't find a nice, pat
quote from my copy of the BBB, it is cleared up in the errata (available
in multiple locations around the web, like The Shadowrun Archive) and it
can be inferred that since the Rule of Six is described as applying to
tests with a target number greater than six, and since the Initiative
test doesn't even have a target number.... (yeah, so I'm bringing logic
into things. So sue me:P )
BTW, I know Barbie's already berated you for this, but could you perhaps
use a somewhat... briefer signature for list messages? Even some of our
more long-winded members (Hi, Pete! :) have posts shorter than your .sig
file, some if you could maybe cut out a few bits of it, it would be
greatly appreciated.
