We mull over what we could possibly contribute to the December topic of the German RPG-bloggers’ carnival. Especially, we would really wish to come up with something, that is neither a theoretical/meta-perspective piece about differences, pros and cons of going by the book versus using ad hoc rulings and house rules, nor a simple house rule (i.e., one of our standard articles). Unfortunately, we come up empty handed for now, both here and in the original German version.
