The Guy Who Doesn't Tell You the Rules |
| Definition |
The player does not communicate all the rules, or the essential basic strategies, to his opponents. |
| Desired Result |
In this way, he gains a decisive advantage. |
| Commentary |
This is typically employed under the guise of abridging the rules when presented to new players, just so that you can start play as soon as possible. Because this unfairly restricts the actions of the ignorant players, it is considered a cheap strategy. Because this strategy is fairly easy to detect, the player should be very careful. Also, of course, it's only as useful as long as his opponents are new to the game. Games with long rulebooks are very vulnerable to Guys Who Don't Tell You the Rules. |
