Cheese movement rules query.

I'm gonna try to find a way to burn this thread because it's just a bunch of nonsense now...

It all depends on dice not 2 inches or whatever, just play the game..

Agreed, no piont in getting anger over a game of plastic soldiers and dice.

GAH,
sorry if I gave the impression of anger, Tim...not my intent.

Just in 'rules-debate' mode...generally, that involves cutting out the kack&flarf and just typing the nitty-gritty.

No offence taken by me

KO then...assumption is elsewhere offense.

For anyone that doesn't know me (or my methods),
if I offended you then understand that nothing I said was with intent to dink you as 'stoopid' or some such.
I just like a strong debate, and pursue it to its most logical/extreme conclusion.
This is as much to push my own opinion/understanding of a matter as far as humanly possible (to be certain that I feel I am correct for the 'right' reasons) as it is to 'prove' anything to anyone.

If you do know (remember) me, and were offended (chup/corsair), I gots nothing...you should have known the above already!

The rules are the pool we play in collectively, and I find myself regularly challenging/challenged by those rules as a TO more than anything else...though I've taken the last <year as a break from that (and now that my local watering hole has closed, it'll be a bit more before I step up again) I AM working with a fella (or 12) to co-ordinate a GT up here as part of the 'circuit'.
That makes me look at these debates as not only illuminating, but also instructive.
Every step and process involved in a rules argument is important to how I think of the rule, the structures around the rule, the community's conventions as a whole AND the greater synergy of RAW vs RAI vs RAI (written/intended/interpreted).

If I seem to get adamant about it, I really am looking for a RAW challenge (or a missed comma) that can put down a misperception like a lame horse, or a newer understanding of something that is just 'missed'.

A) if I play across a broad area/spectrum, I have to see what everyone does...and why
B) if I RUN across a broad pool/spectrum, I have to rule based on the above

It is a genuine love of the game and hobby, and a wish to perpetuate the same, that makes me so fervent in the involvement.

I wasnt offended, I just disagree. We have our ways of playing, and like politics, no amount of talking about sense will change our views when arguing with someone on the other team.

No offense taken at all Mike W. I was doing the Moderator thing and keeping the peace (or in this case preventing any issues). This is one of those agree to disagree things from the two sides.

I see points from both sides and still have a mixed opinion.
