In the rule “Fair Play”, after
An Explorer should not deliberately exploit bugs or unexpected behaviours in the software running the game (ExpressionEngine, MediaWiki or other blognomic.com scripts).
add
An Explorer shall not deliberately sabotage the software running the game. Except as permitted by the ruleset, an Explorer shall not use other features of the software running the game to interfere with normal gameplay, including by modifying the software itself.
Josh: he/they
Some of this feels a bit superfluous - ruleset maximalism designed to prevent the long tail of edge-case outcomes. The existing “An Explorer should not deliberately exploit [...] unexpected behaviours in the software” seems to me to be sufficiently loosely worded that it would prevent most cases that this sets itself up against.
