Those of you have been reading this blog for a while know I hate the 2-in-5 rule. Then, I found a tiny little silver lining. Well, turns out it was just a mirage.
See, there used to be a rule that applicants had to "have reasonable plans to use all of the network drops within two years." But since the 2-in-5 rule basically means you can only get network drops every 3 years, the rule was softened from "two years" to a "few years."
Only now I find out the rule wasn't changed, only obfuscated. The "few years" was just a bit of fog covering the "two years" rule, which is still the law of the land. The Frankenstein-and-NOMAD-get-a-time-machine case that I've been working on for a year and a half is finally getting down to dollars and cents, and when push came to shove, the decree was that all drops had to be used within two years.
So can I count this as one of the many secret rules? It used to be public (and can be found on an old training slide), but now you can only learn about it when you've been stuck by the pointy end of it.
