I'm not getting touchy, I'm just stating opinions and having a spot of fun with you in the process. It's a nice warm up for the game.

That's all right, I forgive you.

Not worked up, eh? Well, you certainly care about it enough to say things like-

I sort of interpretted the strength of your words and the amount of space you took up saying that the Night 1 Scry was not logical to indicate a certain amount of worked-upedness (that's my made up word of the day).

I said that I felt that it was silly to have the GW be able to scry on the first night, when he would likely not have known about an attack beforehand.
Yes, and I think it's silly for someone to waste their breath trying to say that a certain game rule or function is not logical and cannot possibly be rationalized, considering that-
1) It's a game
2) Almost anything can be rationalized within a story when there is absolutely no restrictive frame work.

And that is certainly the case here. The writer, lmp, has complete liberty to make anything any way he wants, and can set up any premise. If you have a problem with the reasoning behind the Night 1 scry, you ask lmp about it, suggest a premise, or just wait for the darn game to start- you don't start posting about how the rule doesn't, or can't, make any sense.
(and you certainly don't state that you feel the game moderator is not talented enough to set up a story)

I'm done. All that needs to be said has been said.
