Ideal Number of Quirks

But if they really want an extra quirk, they can have one; they just have to play it for its own sake, not for the payoff in points.

I should probably have noted that I questioned the guy long and hard about taking that many quirks, just to make sure he wasn't trying to pull a fast one on me. I actually talked him down to 8 from 12, convincing him to turn three of the proposed quirks into regular disads, and dropping a fourth as it was essentially a feature.
