That's beyond the scope of the 101 forum, which is for discussions of the rules as written. Pheo, if you still have questions about this card, please feel free to post; otherwise, I'll close the thread.

Or their games go long enough that they cycle through the Door deck, possibly more than once. Or someone gets the Wand of Dowsing and is very patient. I don't know how it helps answer Pheo's question to minimize his concern.

That wasn't my intention. Since the answer is that there ISN'T really a way to block it, I was TRYING to suggest that maybe he'd just had a run of bad luck, and the situation might not come up so much in future. Thought that might help lessen the frustration in the absence of a specific counter. I may have phrased it badly, or perhaps that just isn't as comforting a thought as I imagined it might me. I apologize if it came across as dismissive.

Thanks, Ed. 101 is intended as a Q&A forum, not a discussion forum, so I'm going to ask everyone (but Pheo, if they still have questions) to let this go. Thanks.
