To the tune of the jingle for 'Klond**e Bars'...What would you do with a worthless card?!?In this, our favorite game, there are some situations that render certain cards worthless. The infamous Bounty Mounty, Dated Weapons on the first of the month, Maggots once all the cabbage has been used - likewise for Drought, Zodiac terminator after the 21st (can be used in combo with Steel Lining - good catch Nathan...) Let this be a thread for "worthless" cards and potential uses for said "worthless" cards, rendering them "useful" One can: Trade them as filler cards to complete a trade when cards in hand are not even-Steven. Psychological Warfare - run them through threatening a horrible consequence for all and when said card is turned over, you discard it. Very handy when done regularly and then occaisionally throw in the true nastiness (Shockwave, ORP [shudder], Leif Carrotson) My favorite, of course - as I'm sure it is most folk's - setting it up in a run to Top Run Rotate to someone else So excellent to take away someone else's good card when you know you're giving them a terd What else does y'alls do?...

I'm a big fan of Top Run Rotate, and using Run Amok (WHich I hope is legal) upon myself...

Dated Weapons are rendered useless on the 2nd of the month when Every Cloud is played to reduce the level by one (but why would you play EC on it!?!)

Top Run Rotate is really the only use at all for these cards. Usually I just sit on them and hope I get Run Amok, Cool Change, or UPP.

Dated weapons on the first of the month is a good card to have if you have Bad Karma played on you.

If given the chance I always use the Top Run Rotate out of my hand on the first turn of the game. Now honestly, who doesn't put a good bankable special or their 2 turn bunny on the board to start off.
Food for thought... Feed Your Bunny

Even better is Bunny Hop. I think I said this earlier somewhere. Great minds think alike!
(Maybe that's why I always disagree with Hare... ;D)

"Show me the Bunny" needs a cruddy card from your hand - worth wasting a 'worthless card' for that just to give some extra stink to the person you snagged a bunny from!...

A good use for Bounty Mounty... Hmmm... either get Dolla for your mob hit or... Make a card that makes it useful! I have an idea about a card called Lassie (the dog).
