IMO, he *did* go "behind his back" since it appeared in Loche 7's posting
that he'd already made a deffinate ruling... now if Demo 3 had asked
"Okay, this is my idea, my GM says it won't work so how would I make it
work/get this desired effect?" that would've gone over much better.
(btw, the adept power Distance Stike would do it)

IMO, it's more about the posters intent than action ...It really appeared
to me that Demo 3 wanted to get people from this list to back him up so
he could hammer Loche 7 ... I am a very patient person but somethings
*really* cheese me off ...
