Sorry, this user has no cards yet.

- Is this AI or UI?
- DY: Am not sure I would interpret it like that. West is not using any interpretation of the circumstances surrounding the creation of the penalty card, only the simple fact that it WAS a penalty card. The law does not appear to disallow that. So if the penalty card was ...
- Director ruling
- But less absolute than "must not", apparently.
