Default Munchkin Quest "Do Over" card

As it is written, the Do Over card states that you can reroll all or some of the die you just rolled. The card, which is a DxM card, does not state "usable once only." Is this a subject for the errata or did we find a game breaker?

The rules say this about playing Deus ex Munchkin cards:

It then goes on to provide exceptions to that statement, which constitutes Races, Classes, Monster Enhancers, or a card that represents a Monster (Mate, being an example).

So, as a DxM card that is not a Race, Class, Monster Enhancer, nor Monster, Do Over would be discarded after you reroll.

Methinks this should be stated on the DO OVER card itself. On page 9, the rules state that "A card is a one-shot if it says 'Usable once only' or 'Go Up a Level.'" Since this card says neither, it might be assumed a "keeper."

OK by me, though - I simply choose to settle this dispute by loud argument, and since I own the game I have the last word!

Not quite. Since you own the game, you get to settle disputes. If you're the only one in dispute with the remainder of the group, and you always side with yourself, then you're at risk of being seen as a tyrant and having no one play with you again.

What I quoted was a section of the rules which expands upon what the intent of play is. If you wish to go against the rules, then feel free to agree within your group on a house rule, or explain to everyone what all of your house rules are before playing.
