Hi,

I've always had the impression that resource long events were only playable during your long-event phase. However, in the Dark Minions Player Guide, I read this under the card "Face out of sight":
Be sure to play this during the site phase so agents do not have a chance to untap.
So, didn't ICE know about the recource-long-events-during-long-event-phase-only-rule? Or has this rule been modified/removed by errata? Or is this simply a typo in the Player Guide?

Do not trust the Dark Minions Player Guide.

Or Play DC (dream card games) where the long-event phase got abolished for crappy rules such as this,

in DC all long-events can be played in response and during all of your phases and always last to the end of opponent's turn

You may only play a resource long-event during your long-event phase. Its card and effects remain in play until your next long-event phase or until otherwise discarded.

...and no errata or crf.

In general, Player's Guides are full of weird and completely illegal advice, such as playing Chance Meeting outside the Organization phase. ;)
The game is flawed, but this does not mean it cannot be loved.

...or less weird as stating that new site and site of origin are entities associated with company.
