Madman wording

Madman says: "...return to the madman pile. If you do..."

What is the edge case where you play a madman and it doesn't return to the madman pile?

I assume it's some sort of lose-track thing, but we were playing the other night and couldn't come up with a way a card can get scooped up from in play.

Maybe it's a theme for Guilds?

I believe it means you cannot hit it with TR or KC, as the second time you play it, you cannot return it to the pile.  Contrast with Feast and Embargo.

Similar to Tactician.

You still get the actions.

Of course, using KC for something like that when you're about to draw a lot of cards is often a bad play.

Never mind that you'll draw one less card because the TR/KC isn't in hand anymore.
