In “Rumors”, change

If they have not done so within the past 24 hours, as a Virtual Action an Agent may add a string to the Rumors.

to

If they have not done so since the most recent Break-In, as a Virtual Action an Agent may add a string to the Rumors.

If it is the Planning the Break-In phase, make this change to both the dynastic ruleset and shadow ruleset, rather than just the shadow ruleset.

So it turns out that there is actually a reason to want to spam Rumors on a schedule, once every 24 hours. (No, I’m not going to publicly say what it is, at least not right now.) I don’t want to do that and I don’t think anyone else wants to do it either, so let’s just close off the timing scam?

for To be honest, this changes nothing but make timing more forgiving, which I believe is one of Kevan’s goals regardless. It seems kind of odd regardless that it wasn’t tied to the natural game cycle anyways.
