Follow up on the question about playing for someone else during a emergency. The concern is that the person playing for you could say that they are not playing for you and would be awarded the prize if they won. 6.4.1 Limits a player to one electronic device (36 faces). It was brought up that the problem is normally when a player only has paper. Carla said she would revisit the statue. It was stated that volunteers cannot play a person’s cards.
Dan Gincig asked if an electronic machine goes down, if the volunteer can help them catch up while you bring the customer a new device. Greg Lestikow said he would look into.
