Cheat! Card?

[StaticHamster]

Actually something else occurs to me.

Some Curses and Bad Stuff specifically states something like "Lose the <insert item type here> you are wearing"

Are items in play with a Cheat! card considered worn?

(oh you asked that....I gotta read more carefully)

More specifically, suppose I have helmet A, and then use a cheat card to play helmet B, making both active. Then something happens (curse, bad stuff, etc.) that causes me to lose the helmet I am wearing. Do I lose A, or both?

While certainly up for debate, I would say that you lose 1 of the headgear that you are wearing, as that would be the normal effect of the card.

I can, however, see an argument that you would lose both, as the Curse does not specify you lose ONE headgear, but implies that you lose ALL headgear.

Hmmm...I'm kind of torn, actually.

Well, rather than have you be "torn," how about I say that you lose both, since you lose the Headgear you are wearing. Just because you are using Cheat! on it, you are still using it, and headgear you are using is worn.

Fine, then...be all literal and stuff. ;)
