I always thought that there should be an inherent flexibility in the 
rules.  I have seen so many problems arise through technicalities and 
strict logic to the letter of the law.  Some people would not call these 
problems, but I think it is too difficult to comprehend and anticipate the 
complete ramifications of each action performed!  To be fair, there have 
also been solutions to most problems through logic.  There are different 
kinds of viewing a logical problem and that is where the difficulties and 
fun lies!

And I also thought that there was a pause going on in the game and it had 
to be spiced up!
