# Zargon
|
|
|
|
## Bylaws
|
|
|
|
### Objectives
|
|
Good humored, cooperative, competitive, consensual torture, for the purposes of
|
|
exploring strategies, design, progress and history of gaming
|
|
|
|
### Members
|
|
* You may invite new members to join in gaming, but they are your responsibility
|
|
* New invitees should come to provisional games (e.g., Friday games) for the
|
|
sake of the invitee and the group
|
|
* If the group at large does not like a guest then that guest may not be allowed
|
|
at future events
|
|
* Players are expected to maintain basic personal hygiene
|
|
* Guests are expected to be gracious and respect additional restrictions of
|
|
venue (e.g. no smoking inside; no young children; allergy considerations)
|
|
|
|
### Games
|
|
* Exhibit good sportsmanship. Be gracious in both victory and defeat
|
|
* Players shall play to the best of their abilities (and not for the purpose of
|
|
antagonizing or targeting others)
|
|
* Cheating is prohibited and viewed as a grievous violation of the Spirit of
|
|
Zargon
|
|
* If after a few initial explanations of a game's rule, a player requires
|
|
continual clarification, that player may be expected to abstain from the game
|
|
until he or she can master the rules outside of gaming sessions. Watching
|
|
video tutorials, private study, or explicit "learning games" are the onus of
|
|
the individual, not the group
|
|
* Treat game components with respect and care, especially if it is not your game
|
|
* Players shall not repeatedly gripe, grouse, whinge, or whine about the design
|
|
of a game. Players are expected to have the self-awareness to abstain from
|
|
games that they dislike
|
|
* Players seeking to make improvements to a game should offer suggestions
|
|
constructively by making concrete proposals for house rules
|
|
|
|
### Infractions
|
|
* It is incumbent on players to bring issues to the attention of the general
|
|
group. An issue can't be addressed if no one else is aware it exists. Either
|
|
bring up the issue directly with the other player or speak to some of the
|
|
other members that you are close with. If they agree that it's an issue that
|
|
needs addressing, the matter should be brought to a group as a whole for discussion.
|
|
|
|
### Sanctions
|
|
* Apologize when appropriate
|
|
* Ameliorate the situation (e.g. repair or replace a damaged game; buy person a
|
|
lunch to mend things)
|
|
|
|
Continued violations may result in ejection from the group, by process of
|
|
consensus of active and long-standing members.
|
|
|
|
