This is a good example of some back-and-forthing on a deal involving rules and items. Note that there was a rule copier in this game, so that RT could ‘copy’ rule 7 and let Hal show it to other people, that will not be the case this time around.

And Hal was not actually setting up a different series of numbers for his counteroffers - he hadn’t made any of his own offers at this point in the game, as far as I can tell. 🙂
