Yeah. That's about exactly the ultimate expresion of it.

Except that the fine print of FPR says to ignore it if you only play one card.

Which, of course, we discovered immediately after playing a long game in about exactly that situation. :)

Oops!!!

This isn't as bad as it can get... though I think the following scenario requires a hybrid 2/3 deck. How about:

Draw 5
Play 2 (so the random's kick into effect)
Hand Limit 0
First Play Random
Final Play Random

It's also amusing that, in the picture, the current goal is "Dreamland" and "Sleep" is on the top of the discard pile... but under the depicted deck-churning situation that goal won't last long.

Yes, I think it does require a hybrid. I've got a 2 deck, which only has Final Play Random, and my friends with 3 decks only have First Play Random.

And yes, having Dreamland and Sleep as they are is a definite part of what makes this funny.
