1) If I draw a Raft as an adventue card and I don't want to take it, is it immediately discarded?

2) Battle Royale sucks.

I think that it is discarded.

On page 17 of the rulebook, it says: A raft can never be left behind or taken along on a future turn.

Whether or not, it is used. It must be placed on the adventure card discard pile, or back with the purchase deck.

So if you ditch the raft, then it is discarded.

That refers to when a player actually takes a Raft and keeps it until his following turn, in which case it cannot be left behind (ditched) and is discarded or put back in the Purchase deck.

If a player draws a Raft from the Adventure deck and he chooses not to keep it or is unable to take it (undefeated Enemy, Event, etc.), it is left faceup on the space until a player does pick it up and adds it to his Objects!
