    *I may not called shot (knee) with my bow
    **if successful the target does not immediatly recieve a job as a town guard

    *If I create a setting where titles of nobility are in a different language from english that required a good bit of research on my part and a friend complains about "all the made up words for titles" this is not an excuse to hit him over the head with a history textbook

    *Yes, saltpeter, sulfer, an charcoal all exist in D&D. No I may not manufacture gunpowder.

    *Yes cows poop in D&D, no I may non make Nitroglyceren from their waste products

    *It is possible to utilize magic to run an electrical charge through water thus providing a source of hydrogen. I am not permitted to use this hydrogen to create a Fusion Bomb

    *if I break any of the above rules, I may not forcefeed the explosives to a cow, drench said bovine in barbecue sauce, tie it to a post in the middle of a field, wait for the dragon to show up, and watch the fireworks.

    *If I become king, I may not make Explosive Runes the official written language of the my kingdom

    *IF I become a king I am encouraged to create a constitution. Its bill of rights may not be
    The right to pie
    the right to pi
    the right to cheese
    the right to beer
    the obligation to bacon

    *The names Han, Luke, Indiana, Henry, Short, Jones, Round, Junior, Lando, Sanders, Ben, Hogan, Laboe, Carter, Newkirk, Shultz, Klink, Maxwell, any number, Chief (police, indian, tribal or otherwise), Abbot, and Costello, are all off limits

    *Robin Hood has been done, many times, he is no longer an acceptable charecter concept.

    *If my D&D character is a smuggler ship captain with weapon proficency (hand crossbow), and gorrilla for a sidekick, impossibly good ship handling skills, a bounty on his head, and an amaizingly skeptical attitude towards the party wizard(s), I am not allowed to play him

    * If the same character, gets himself frozen in a block of Ice and send to the NPC who put a price on his head I must accept this as poetic justice.

    * I reserve the right to view a semi-botched rescue attempt as poetic justice against the DM

    * If my character ever goes whaling, he may not shout, "Use harpoons and tow cables"

    It seems to me that, while Wallace does make the inventions, or at least design them, Gromit is usually the one who has to get it in working order and fix it whenever it invariably goes wrong. Besides, whenever they're reading, Wallace is reading some book about cheese, while Gromit has "Electronics for Dogs" or some similar book open.

    * If my players spend all session to come up with a credible plan on how to kill the tarrasque, when they tell me this plan I am not allowed to say, "Nope, wrong, doesn't work. Instead, you must force-feed him the druid's animal companion" as a corny reference to an old campaign of mine that ended like this.

    A few recent Legend games.

    *It is not recommended to destroy the costume given to you as "a part of the act" when performing for the circus.
    **It is especially not recommended when the costume was a disguise to keep you from being recognized by mobsters.
    ***Considering that you are also undead, and a skeleton at that under said costume is not helping out your chances of keeping the crowd from recognizing you past your perception defense.

    *Just because they didn't want to pay you doesn't mean they're not going to.
    **Just because they didn't end up paying you doesn't mean you can't make your money back anyway.
    ***Not all of your employers deserve to have their organs sold to the mafia.

    And Legend with Paranoia setting and modifications.

    *Just because there are reports of Anti-mutants in the area does not mean that you need to kill anyone who gives your party's registered mutants dirty looks.
    **New items handed to you by R&D for purposes of testing should not be tested by yourself. Always get an infrared you suspect of treason to test it first.

    *I will not sign my party leader's name on every form that requires a signature for liability purposes. At least not while he's looking.
    **Nothing should go undocumented, except what would make you look bad.

    *The party is no longer allowed to get a Decanter of Endless Whiskey.

    **If the party does, the DM may not be surprised when the more engineering-minded among the party immediately create Whiskeypunk.

    ***Drinking whiskey in a town while the town is on fire is counterindicated, and will lead to both fire breath and damage to the firebreather.

    *No longer allowed to play an awakened housecat, especially with LA +0.

    **/Especially/ not allowed to play an Awakened Housecat Unarmed Swordsage.

    ***If I roll max Int on Awaken, I will not be allowed to keep it, even if I do so in full view of the rest of the party.

    ****I am /definitely/ not allowed to be simultaneously the most intelligent and the wisest member of the party as a housecat, and I should not be surprised if the rest of the party refuses to take me seriously as a result.
