That's not true.

The GMs do not pick up every line that's being thrown towards them,  
true. But you make it sound like they're ignoring absolutely  
everything, and nothing could be further from the truth.

The players have thrown us around more than once. But just like you,  
we can cope and adapt and change our tactics. Some of you have  
noticed, some haven't. That's part of the game. Lots of plans didn't  
work out, or worked only for a time - League of Champions, Daimon  
Worship, to name just two. So they were changed or dropped. We got  
quite a few curve balls to handle, but like in baseball, a curve ball  
doesn't automatically mean that it's not hit nevertheless.
