[QUOTE="Blue, post: 8604372, member: 20564"] Except that no declarations before initiative are binding on anyone else, so why would this one be binding? You are hugely penalizing a player for being proactive instead of reactive if you force them and only them to declare an action prior to initiative, an action that may not even be possible to do when their action comes up. Now I'm confused - my question was prefixed with "Question for everyone suggesting normal initiative". If you aren't rolling normal initiative then why are you answering. And if you are rolling normal initiative then why are you letting someone go first without note if they won initiative or not. Okay, so it sounds like you aren't for standard initiative, you're for the declarer acting first. Well, now your first response makes sense. But the question wasn't directed at people doing what you are doing and doesn't make sense except in a different situation. [/QUOTE]
