The Grand Canal for https://blognomic.com/archive/ninth_game_raven1207_vs_josh and https://blognomic.com/archive/eleventh_game and https://blognomic.com/archive/eleventh_game is the Ace of Swords

The Grand Canal for all Games started between when this post was made and when it was resolves shall be the card posted by the Dealer to the Game’s Table as part of the the “Secretly randomly generate one card that is in neither players’ hands…” step of the atomic action done when starting that game.

In the Tournament Rules of Giolotti replace “The card is referred to as the Grand Canal.” with The card is referred to as the game’s Grand Canal”.

Given that three of the six proposals currently in the queue fix the Grand Canal issue in the ruleset, the real meat of this CfJ is in pinning down what the GC is for the currently running games. I’m a little averse to the idea that different games should have a different GC regime based on what players want (this CfJ is partly, I suspect, because Clucky would prefer the GC in his game to be the Queen, and the carve-out in my game is at least partly because I said that’s what I wanted in slack) - if this is going to impose a gamestate fix then it should be consistent and prepared to fail rather than tepidly nepotistic.

I guess I’m going to go imperial because I feel in my gut that it’s the Emperor’s job to be guarantor of the rules, and I’d like to see Kevan come down cleanly on how to rule should be interpreted and how he should respond to attempts to overturn his interpretation of the rules from the floor.

Its saying that the grand canal should be the one that was generated for the game, but carving out an exception for your game because it was already played that way.

I’ll wait for Jumble to weigh in. If none of the affected players object to it, I’m happy to vote in favour.
