Karma Chameleon
Can someone please explain how the whole Karma thing works?
I thought I'd figured it out but now apparently I can't give Karma to the person I wanted to give Karma to without giving Karma to some people I don't want to give karma to.

I thought it was kinda odd, but I think it's so you can't get a mate to give you tons of karma and make you look good

I think you have to spread to about 20 other people before you can karma the same person again.

Of course, some people use the ability to spread blanks as a way of spreading to the "undeserving" before going back and giving a fully loaded shot to their mates the next day.
But if anyone asks, you didn't hear it from me. And no, I don't do it!

I have to admit to being a bit tight with karma myself, but it's mainly because I forget to use it. We should have a carry-over system for days when we don't use up all of our hits.
