STICKY: JB Responses

[whitbunny]

This is actually BB01's idea in "Cyber bunny questions" - No discussion within this thread, talk somewhere else about this...this is only for e-mail quotations. I'll start off with some of my own...(okay, maybe a lot)

1. Can you use a p-card twice if you play it directly from your hand?
>Yes
2. Can you use free agents and pawns with Blown Trojan?
>No you can't just single color bunnies
3. Can you play the Carrot Top Royale if your only bunny is the COMA?
>NO, no cards with the pink rectangle may be played.
4. What exactly is an aggressive card (besides weapons)
>Any card with a pink rectangle (except Choose A Carrot).
5. Zodiac terminator: Does an abducted bunny have to be discarded or does he stay in Area 51?
>He stays, safe with the aliens!
6. If Leif Cartason is played, do the Holographic or Halo bunnies have to board? I think so, but they then can't be thrown off.
>This is an abduction, so the Halo does not have to go. But Holo does. If he is thrown overboard he is simply discarded.
7. What happens when the 7th whisk is played on a bunny with clovers? What if the player holding the card has the Minilith?
>Even a bunny with one clover can survive the 7th Whisk. The Minilith makes all the 1's 2's and increases the range to include the adjacent bunnies as well.
8. Is the holographic bunny a red bunny? And can it be used to form a bunny triplet?
>Yes and yes. The rules on that were revised so our Bunny Bits may be off.
9. Can an abducted red bunny still use its special powers? I don't think so, but a COMA bunny can...
>No an abducted bunny is strapped to an examining table. :0(
10. Is a specialty bunny with the Halo eliminated if Lord of the Bunnies is played?
>No, he survives along with the Lord.

1) In the Violet Bunny Bits it states that Holo bunny is not any particular color. It also states that Bunny Booster and Random Paintball Assault may not be played on the Holo bunny.
Now, I am aware that the rules were modified such that the Holo bunny is now considered a red bunny. With that in mind, is it now legal, or still illegal, to play Bunny Booster and/or Random Paintball Assault on the Holo?

>I'm not sure why you would want to play Bunny Booster on the Holo. As for RPA I would say no. When you RPA a Red bunny it can lose it's powers. Not so with Holo so I'm going to stick with no.


2) May Free Agents be considered as any color when used with the Blown Trojan to revive bunnies from the discard pile, or may they not be used with Blown Trojan?

>May not be revised. Another great question though. Remind me again, why you don't work for me?! :0)


3) Terrible Misfortunes - my interpretation of the rules is that if your only bunny is a Holo or a Halo, or you have no bunnies down at all, then you MAY choose to EITHER play it on another player, OR discard it without playing it on anyone. Is this correct?

>No you must play it on another bunny. This is an issue that we revised in edition 3 of the rules (out soon for download).

4) It is mentioned on magiccarrot.com that another set of rules (version 3) will be released where "Aggressive Cards" will now include Choose A Carrot cards (and therefore the Halo'd bunny won't be able to get carrots). When do these rules go into effect?

>Well that is not true and edition 3 should be out by the end of April. Sorry about the confusion.


5) Penguins, beach-balls, wings, and the Jupiter planet appear in the card illustrations repeatedly. They all appear on the Bad Karma card too. I sense something in the pipeline here....Mysterious places, perhaps?

>Perhaps...

[BunnyBasher01]

The only thing I can add...

1) #194 Rainbo - If a player rolls for this card and two die show the same number (that number being the lowest rolled) do you off all bunnies of both colors -or- just re-roll those two die and low roll dies?

>>Well it's your choice, but if you're asking me, I'd say both die! hehe!

I heard that if you made the holo bunny live, you could RPA it to make it not red (or hope it dies with black).

[wjb808]

So....... Jason was wrong about CaC being agressive cards? hehehe

[whitbunny]

1. Can the Holo bunny be abducted by the Beyea Aliens? Or Leif Carrotson?
>No way.

2. Do you lose a Halo (or Holo) bunny on a card that tells you to lose all bunnies and carrots?
ex. Monumentally mad baker, Carrot top Royale, Zodiac Terminator
>No way.

3. For other cards (besids Supplies Surprise), if you tie, do you get both results?
ex. Rainbo, Pilfer the Pawn
>Well so far there is no set rule but soon there will be and the answer is YES (You get both)!

You may have known this, but...
4. Can a Halo bunny be moved if someone has the winning Zodiac?
>He sure can!

[whitbunny]

Love the White booster deck!!! Some questions we came up with:

1. If Shockwave is played in between two players where there is a barrier, does the blast still move both players' bunnies or does it have to be played on one side of the barrier, thus moving only one set of bunnies?
>The second one.

2. Can Halo or Holo be moved (or squished) by Shockwave? Can Cyber Bunny be moved (or killed)?
>No, no, no.

3. Do you have to use Run P-Cards such as Heavenly Halo Handoff and Dueling Grandmothers twice in the same turn? Or can you save them and use them again some other time?
>Same turn. Since they are not Specials, they cannot be saved.

And finally, my sister wanted me to ask you:
4. What is your favorite bunny?

>Hmmmm, I'd say Rimmer!
(That's the Red Holo). But it will change to Ace when Kinder Bunnies comes out!

Have a great day!

1) RUN AMOK
Is this legal play?
I have Run Amok already as a saved special, and it's now my turn.
I run amok myself, and discard my Top and Bottom Run Cards, and draw 2 new cards, but before I replace the top and bottom run cards I purchase a bunny from Weil's to put it down as my Top Run.

>> Yes, it is legal and well thought out. Well done!

2) ROONEY'S WEAPONS EXCHANGE
Is this legal play?
I have Rooney's Weapons Exchange already as a saved special, and it's now my turn.
I turn over my Top Run and it's the Suction Cup, but I don't play it on anyone.
Instead, I use the Weapons Exchange card and exchange the Suction Cup with the Rocket Exhaust from Rooney's, then use that on a player?

>> No, Rooney's exchanges weapons in hand. Your cup was already played and gone.


3) THE WHITE STUFF / SUNNY DAY
The Sunny Day may be exchanged for the White Stuff.
Does this mean that both cards must have been saved off as saved specials, and you can swap them between players? Can you swap them repeatedly or is it a one-time exchange?

>Yes, and one time.

[Nathan454]

Hey Nathan,
It's a great question.

It's a one time exchange with a player.

Have a great day!

This is interesting.

Hello Nathan,

Yes it would have to be placed to one side of the barrier.


> 2. Is the Halo bunny moved by Shockwave?

Yes, but never killed. If it hits a barrier, it just stays with the
original person.

>
> 3. Is the Holographic Bunny moved by Shockwave?
>

No.

It seems to contradict what was said above, but to me it makes more sense.

Here's another JB response for White questions...


Thanks for another exciting booster. I really like the new white deck. The card color and art are very striking, especially 'Bonanza'.

>Thanks, please write to the artist as well and let him know!

1. Can the white dice be used in conjunction with 'colorless' die rolls?

(For example, Russian Roulette and Poverty Poker don't specify a die color to use. Can the owner of the White Stuff still roll the white die along with another die?)

Yes, it sure can.


2. What is the O.R.P a takeoff from? It looks to be inspired by Dr. Seuss.

It was based on a former student of mine, we called him Shoe.



3. The Golden Ratio (almost): Does the 'almost' refer to that 8/5=1.6 is not quite the convergence of the Fibonacci sequence? Is the Poindexter bunny an homage to the Nutty Professor?

Yes, 8/5 seemed like the best set to use. 13 and 8 were closer but by then the game is over. Thanks for getting the reference. Did you get the Pineapples and Penrose Tiles?

No nutty profs, sorry but I have never seen that. Another good question for the artist though.





Have a great day and thanks for playing our game,
Jeffrey Bellinger

Interesting. We always play that the player of the card gets to choose which die that everyone will roll. I know if somebody has The White Stuff (besides me), I'll be choosing the 20-sided die from now on. That way they cannot substitute the white die for it.

[Tyberius]

We always play that the player of the card gets to choose which die that everyone will roll.

We always play that everyone grabs a random 12-sider and rolls simultaneously.

[Dazzler]

1) FINGERCUFFS

If Fingercuffs is placed between Player 1's "regular" bunny and Player 2's "one-card triple bunny" (e.g. Bunnylon 3), then does the regular bunny become a triple and therefore allow Player 1 to turn over two cards per turn?

>> No, it only shares the 'extras' added to the bunny.



2) O.R.P.

This card is a real pest! It took away a bunch of my supplies during a game yesterday!

Anyway, my question is if the ORP takes away all a player¹s bunnies, would that include the halo and holo or are they safe from removal?

>> Yes for Holo, no for Halo.


3) Halo and Holo

These 2 bunnies seem to pop up a lot in questions, as to when they are affected and when they are notŠso once and for all let me try to get this straight:

Generally speaking, when a card refers to "all bunnies" (e.g. shockwave moves all bunnies, monumentally mad bakery disaster removes all bunnies, leif carrotsen takes all bunnies, etc. etc.) does this really mean all bunnies except Halo and Holo?

>> In general, no on Halo, yes on Holo, but it is a case by case basis.

[Tyberius]

Jeff,

If you roll for Pilfer the Pawn, and the roll comes up the same color that the white pawn has been declared, do you get both pawns of that color? (Example ­ White was bought and declared to be red. Pilfer the Pawn is played, and red is the winning roll. Does the player get both the white and red pawns?)

Yes, absolutely!


Thanks,

Anytime.



Have a great day! Take care,
Jeffrey Bellinger
