like I said during the first thread, as a DM this would quite possibly cause my head to explode. It's bad enough when a player tells me "Oh, you must have forgotten that I have "X ability" which renders me immune to "Y nasty attack" thereby making your BBEG about as challanging as a one armed goblin with parkensons".
I can only imagine what would happen if I put together some encounter only to have a player grin and slap some rediculously rare card that be bought on E-Bay down on the table and causing a metor shower that wipes the battlefield clean.
At least when I forget an ability it's my own damn fault but putting an aspect of randomness into the game would make a DM's job a million times harder, quite franky the DM's job is hard enough without having to hope to gawd that the player doesn't draw the "act of god" card and scours the planet. It would be like having a brand new shiny Deck of Many Things in the hands of each player without any bad cards.
