So does our Marshal. I don't remember François posting before, so you ought to
know that he's the newest member of The Posse With No Name, and has the dubious
honour of playing our first Huckster ever. ;)

I'm curious: do many Marshals feel it necessary to keep their players "honest"
with house rules and the like? Our own Marshal does it just to mess with our
heads, because I like to think we're pretty good about distinguishing between
player and character knowledge (speaking as a Marshal-in-training), but I'd be
interested to know if people have found this to be a problem, especially those
of you still working with the First Edition rulebook.
