Rule Zero
Don't make us make a rule. Do not force us to define the spirit of the game.
If the rules are wrong, they stay wrong. For fairness, finish this game as is. We can play correctly next game.
We are here to increase collective fun. When in doubt, do what's fun. Provide more options than the rules allow. Lose to make others laugh. Embrace the challenge. Change rules that take away from the overall fun.
