I think Frank's first rule undoubtedly negates most of the posts so far, as Frank started off the list with the T206 Wagner:

1. Post one card in your post assuming that you own all the previously mentioned cards.

Bad, bad, evil Frank.

Not intended to be deceptive or disqualifying.

Most have interpreted this rule correctly.

A few have not.

Even my ESL teacher says the sentence is perfectly clear as is.

LOL, I have to agree with Leon on this one. I think that first sentence was written after quite a bit of time at the 19th tee.

miss comprehending stood next to miss congeniality in the recent miss america contest.

exactly. if you second guess a manager's decision in a ball game, you are rendering an opinion as if (or assuming that) you are the manager. Your opinion counts, even though you are not the manager.

The same principal applies here.

I would caution anyone about agreeing with Leon too often. Reread the first section of this post. My ESL teacher is aghast.

Amen. Rule section clarified.

You are assuming that you own the cards. You don't have to own all, or even any, of the cards.
