A summoned monster cannot summon or otherwise conjure another creature, nor can it use any teleportation or planar travel abilities.

To put the matter beyond any shadow of a doubt - only Orcs on foot benefit from choppas - not Goblins, not mounted Orcs, not models on chariots, not small boys named Kevin, not Gerbils, not anything else, never, not ever, OK!

Black Hat: Turns out most colocation TOSes don't mention beehives.

Additionally, look for rules that stand out to you. Especially things that are oddly specific or that address edge cases. These sorts of rules almost always come out of testing. They tend to be a patch for something that the designers found after the initial design was complete. See if you can figure out why these rules were necessary. Why the game would break down or how players would exploit the game if those rules were missing.
You can't send more than a hundred gift packages a day. Yes, having this limit is stupid, but it's the best solution we can think of to the gift box spamming problem.
Once you've had enough practice, [ladder climbing] is the one game at the carnival that's basically all skill, so you can win every time and clean them out. Unfortunately, the carnival owners know this, which is why it's also the only game with this super lame caveat:
[Sign: One win per player, per month.]

It is important that once and for all, the members of this Party be made to understand and that is the purpose of this opinion that they will be required to obey and carry out the orders of this court, not only in the technical respects but in the true spirit and meaning of the same. This court is convinced that they are fully aware of what is the law, and it will not excuse further evasions, subterfuges or attempts to get around the same. It is time that either the present officials of the Party, or such as may be in the future chosen, realize that the people of the United States expect them to follow the American way of elections. It is believed that the great body of people in this State, as well as in this Nation, truly believe in the American ideals and methods, and it is hoped that the actions of the Party officials do not represent the true view of the people of South Carolina.

In short, the constitutional rights of children not to be discriminated against in school admission on grounds of race or color declared by this Court in the Brown case can neither be nullified openly and directly by state legislators or state executive or judicial officers, nor nullified indirectly by them through evasive schemes for segregation whether attempted 'ingeniously or ingenuously.'

Rules can often breed strange-looking cars indeed, even with the best intentions from the rule-makers. Engineers are single-minded machines; they only care to extract performance from within the rule space. They don't care about aesthetics, or environmentalism, or really even safety at the heart of it. When their design head is on, they're simply aiming to build the fastest possible car the rules will allow. And this is how loopholes get wrenched open, and suddenly we have a load of cars with trunk-noses, or an outbreak of winglets, or a massive bit of scaffolding on an otherwise elegant chassis.

Wanda: And furthermore, under no circumstances is any fairy allowed to grant an "I-wish-it-was-Christmas-every-day" wish ever again.
Cosmo: Wow, they added a new rule! You've really got to mess up big time to make that happen!

Because of us, there's the no-clothesline rule, the no-hitting-out-of-bounds rule, the no-fumbling-forward-in-the-last-two-minutes rule, the no-throwing-helmets rule, and the no-Stickum rule. So you see, we're not all bad.

Host #1: And the winner is nature's greatest kill machine, man! (crowd boos) Show me where in the rulebook it says that a human can't be a robot.
Host #2: Right here. Rule One.
