Outside assistance

Outside assistance is a Acorn mechanic featured in Unstable, Unsanctioned and Unfinity that has the player interacting with a person from outside the game to get input of some kind. 
==Description==
Cards with outside assistance require you to find a person not playing in your current game and ask them to do something, usually making a choice or choices about something that will impact your game. 
==Rulings==
* A "person outside the game" is any person anywhere except the people who are currently in your game.
* Players who started in your game but are currently out of it are also outside the game.
* It doesn't have to be a person who plays or knows Magic.
* If there's no one else around, you may use your phone if you need to. Texting and calling are allowed, although, if you need the person outside the game to perform a physical action (such as high-fiving, becoming your teammate, that kind of thing), you may be out of luck.
