player a has HAMA out, player b takes another out and they contest, did player b get the 4 blood? or lost the four blood? in other words if a card comes into play contesting, does it become a card at all before it contests? Skippy !Malk

I think it is wonderful if you have a stealth deck. You put it out and gain four pool. When you can see the other Metuselahs greedy looks, and just give them the hard look and explains you just take it back. But you can also give permission to a Metuselah in trouble... This card needs you to be good at table diplomacy, and rightly used the Art Museum really can help you. Maybe it's not a great card, but absolutly not a Wallpaper.

Well, b either got 4 pool and immediately lost 4 pool for the contest, or never controlled it in the first place (netting 0). So mostly it wouldn't matter. But, since for example playing a second Rack would require you to choose a minion first (before the contest), it seems as if player b would gain 4 for playing the card and then lose 4 for the contest (losing control). -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) VTES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

Actually, in the "best bait card since x" category, I'd place it as best since Powerbase: New York. Now that's bait.
