I feel lots of gamers discover a difficulty with video games which have loopholes that they’ve found within the guidelines, however the GM gained’t enable the sport to go off the rails like that. 

Playing guidelines as written presumes the foundations are good.  There is not any such recreation. 

Quite a lot of my video games I play now are guidelines gentle so my GM means has fewer restrictions.

The system I wrote has a selected written rule that declares “because there is no way to account for all the ways these rules could interact in unintended ways, if a result seems broken or nonsensical to the GM, then the GM should determine the outcome based on what they believe to be the intention of the rule.”

In essence, taking part in “rules as intended” (as decided by the GM) is definitely the “rules as written” for the system.

This has all the time been a part of the objective with one thing like Rule 0.
The trick is that insofar as a recreation has guidelines, you need them nicely designed. A caveat like that should not be a crutch for unhealthy design (not saying it’s, nevertheless it may very well be).

Oh, its not. I simply know what number of potential shifting items there are between varied character and monster skills and that some conditions might contain the interplay of three or 4 or much more parts that might, in concept, produce some damaged outcome. I simply wished to cowl my bases in case one thing within the interactions that by no means bought caught as a result of the folks I had check the system simply by no means tried a hypothetical combo of a number of parts and resulted in some form of factor that might be a nightmare or gamebreaking if allowed to face.

I’ve seen sufficient unhealthy guidelines legal professionals try the “guidelines as written” argument on a brand new DM who’s unsure of themselves and their rulings but. This is principally simply to undercut that entire line solely as a result of its damnably annoying.
