FAO Pompey/Southampton players and matt green - voting.

latest version of the on-line rulebook:
"Important: No Methuselahs draw to replace cards during a referendum.
After the referendum, each Methuselah draws back up to her hand size (as
necessary)."
Which, of course, gives Anam a HUGE advantage in any similar games we
play in future, since she gets to redraw while those of us with an XY
karyotype don't..... ;-)

Vampires and Methuselahs are pretty universally referred to with female
pronouns in Jyhad, so you're let out of a lot more than that if you're
going to be that pedantic ;)

Also from the on-line rulebook (the "*" is the important part):
OBJECT OF THE GAME
Your goal is to destroy the influence held by rival Methuselahs. You
accomplish this goal by using your influence to gain control of younger
vampires and using those vampires to take actions to reduce the influence
of rival Methuselahs. Influence is represented by pool counters (see
Equipment Needed, sec. 1.2), the main currency of the game. When a
Methuselah runs out of pool counters, she* is bereft of influence and
ousted from the game. As Methuselahs are ousted, players earn victory
points; the winner is the player with the most victory points at the end of
the game (see Victory Points, sec. 9.1).
* Throughout this rulebook, references to players (Methuselahs)
will be feminine ("she" and "her"), while references to minions
(characters represented in the game) will be masculine ("he" and
"his"). These pronouns are not intended to identify gender; this
is merely a useful method to avoid both cumbersome "he or she"
constructions and ambiguity.

Actually our rant wasn't about PC language, it was about our TOTAL group
confusion over the current state of the redrawing-during-votes rules. Not
confused anymore, however. Nice job on the online rulebook BTW - a model
for how these things ought to be written. Going to have a nice index in
the printed version for Sabbat Wars, i expect?

So Legbiter's planned sex change isn't necessary?
Oh, and he looked so good in that dress too.....

the sex change. The best thing my dad ever gave me was his Y-chromosome].
In fact i once won a fancy dress competition by attiring myself as Mary
Poppins, and i got married in a kilt. Unsolicited testimonials from other
sources:
"How come Men always have the best legs?" [independently said by two
different Brides of Legbiter].
"Bloody hell, james, it's YOU!!! VERY convincing, so much so that I was
wondering who the Ugly Old Bag was." [one of the students at leeds, when
i won the fancy dress compo].
Related or not, at one time i had self-waxing legs [a big bald patch
appeared comprising most of my left calf, but then it went away].

Well, the kilt was a given, and is not a dress, though it can be a dress
uniform. I'm just wondering if you shaved for the Mary Poppins impersonation.

Or do you rather mean you now comb over the area?
