[LSJ] Malkavian Prank question

I did a quick search on Google but didn't find anything on this, so... Malkavian Prank Cardtype: Master Clan: Malkavian Master. Each other Methuselah holds between 1 and 4 <counters> <inclusive> in his or her hand. Guess the <number of counters> in each Methuselah's hand. If you guess correctly, you gain that much pool from his or her pool. If you guess incorrectly, that Methuselah gains that much pool from the blood bank. Is there anything preventing the Methuselah playing this card from guessing a number less than 1 or greater than 4? Dan

If you really need to help a fellow Methuselah out, though, you could just as easily inform her of the tactic to begin with and tell her to hold four and then guess one. That's as good as guessing five. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

That's as good as guessing five. True, but it's good to have that safety of pitching far enough outside the plate to make *sure* you deliver the intentional walk (to throw in some baseball terminology) :) Thanks, Dan
