Yarr mateys, the Inquisitor is a mighty ship, and the sea be rife with plunder for the taking. Do we really want to follow a ‘Buddha’ who preaches pacifism and abstinence, of all things? I, your First Mate, call for Mutiny! Take up yer cutlasses, boys, and show this filthy landlubber what being a pirate is all about!

Purplebeard:
Kevan:
So will this fizzle because “No Swashbuckler may Duel another Swashbuckler whose GPS is zero”, or does this end Dynasty 100?
Josh:
Mutinies don’t confer Victory, but it may mean that Purplebeard becomes Time Buddha.
Bucky:
My GPS is 3 (if it matters).
Purplebeard:
Oops, you’re right, of course. I’m not the First Mate. You can’t oppose this, though, since the Mutiny rule doesn’t apply to you.
Kevan: this is definitely open to interpretation, but the way I read it, the ‘no duelling zero-GPS Swashbucklers’-clause denotes when a duel may be initiated, not how it is resolved, which is what is relevant to the Mutiny rule.
Purplebeard:
The Mutiny is successful. Yarr.
Josh:
What does that actually mean, in practical terms? I think you may be Time Buddha now.
