Dedas, I hope you're not trying to make a connection between what you refer to as "natural law" and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural-law_argument because that would just be too complicated. In any case, Illwinter Gamer Design is a cool company, but I can assure you that it is not God.

You make it sound like I am trying to build a flying machine circa 1800. By your definition, even simple team games defy the laws of gravity because team games are not coded in by Illwinter and therefore defy "natural law" because they are only held together by spit and player agreements.

As far as I'm concerned, any set of rules that a group of people mutually agree to as conditions for playing a game is fine if they like it that way. The problem here is that there is some ambiguity about whether people mean what they say when they say it, which leads to disagreements such as this.
