The 4 minute turn limit will not be specifically enforced throughout the tournament.
Did you know that neither of those rules are in the rulebook anymore? Therefore the default is that they are not used, because they don't exist 😉

I realise this is still over a year away, but I have a rules question: for skills you say "Stacking is permitted using a Secondary Skill, up to a max of 2 skills on any one player."

Does this mean I can only give a player a second skill if it is a Secondary skill? Or that I have to 'spend' a Secondary to be able to stack?
