A topic from AEG's L5R CCG Rules forum, copied for Oracle of the Void from a copy of the forum saved in October 2015, so pages it didn't save are missing. Players' names are left out; the rules officials are named. Rulings are as they stood on these dates; later rulings, the rulebooks and the Rules Archive may differ.
A player, 4 April 2012
With today's preview of The Scorpion Wall is Finished I have a question regarding drawing vs putting cards in your hand, namely are they the same thing or does the card only affect effects that say to "put a card in your hand"?
The Scorpion Wall is Finished: Until the game ends, other players' actions will not discard cards from your hand, and after a player has resolved two actions that put cards in his hand in one phase, no more cards will be put into his hand that phase.

Sorry.
Our recently departed Rules Team member Zen Faulkes used to be the one who religiously put up this announcement. We plumb forgot to do so in his absence.
