INFORMATION
Neither so Ancient Nor so Potent: hazard permanent-event, 2 MP
Playable on a stored item. Return item to opponent's hand (discard all attached cards). Place this card in opponent's marshalling point pile.
Following the results from Ballot Item #35 A, in case the type of MP's that Neither so Ancient Nor so Potent gives is no longer Kill MP's, what type of MP's should it now give? Please vote on this item, regardless of your vote on item 35 A.

BALLOT ITEM # 35 B:
Which of the two following errata do you prefer?

NEITHER SO ANCIENT NOR SO POTENT
Change This:
Playable on a stored item. Return item to opponent's hand (discard all attached cards). Place this card in opponent's marshalling point pile.
Into Either:
A
Playable on a stored item. Return item to opponent's hand (discard all attached cards). Place this card in opponent's marshalling point pile. It gives 2 item marshalling points.
Or:
B
Playable on a stored item. Return item to opponent's hand (discard all attached cards). Place this card in opponent's marshalling point pile. It gives 2 miscellaneous marshalling points

CONSEQUENCES OF YOUR VOTE:
If you vote A, then Neither so Ancient Nor so Potent will give Item MP's.

If you vote B, then Neither so Ancient Nor so Potent will give Miscellaneous MP's.

ADDITIONAL COMMENTS:
Which option reflects the theme of the card better?
Or should possible game mechanics and consequences of the card be more important? Should the effect of removing (some of) a player's Item MP's be compensated by making Neither So Ancient Nor so Potent give Item MP's?

Vote to nullify.

I know some people don't see it, but it just really really looks like a circle to me.

Did you mean to post this under 35A? viewtopic.php?f=144&t=3406

I truly hope that no one was confused that this card was created as Kill MP and ICE upheld that over the years. I do realize that some people just don't care.
