My Group of friends play munchkin and we play by what we call "House Rules". "House Rules" are that if a card is played but it cannot be used or is played "improperly" it is discarded. This is a way to encourage other players to actively read their cards before they play them or risk loosing them, further subtracting their resources they could of used to win or prevent other munchkins from wining as a punishment.
Example: some uses United I Stand which says "play when you are in combat alone" but they have a munchkin aiding them in combat already.
"House rules" would force the player of that card to discard it due to improper use.
"House Rules" deconstructs a munchkins competition by not allowing other players to "take back cards" that have been not properly used or couldn't have been used and turns a fun game into a serious one.
The reason i have posted this is because i need opinions on the ethics of the "House Rulings" my friends have applied to this game in order to disband it or continue to apply it.
If a card or cards are misused by a fellow munchkin in order to oppose you from winning a combat: would you claim the card is exhausted/misused and needs to be discarded or tell them to return it to the players hand?
In reference to "House Rules" my friends had an incident with Unnatural Compulsion.~Unnatural Compulsion is played.
"play at anytime.all players must show their hands.you may take a single one shot item from each player (Either the hand or ones already in play) and use it immediately."
A munchkin had in their hand doppelganger. doppelganger is a one shot but its effect cannot be activated in the present situation. unnatural compulsions user was not in combat presently or anything - but it allows them to take a one shot and makes them instantaneously play it I.E. use it.
The card never explain weather it had to be a successful using of the one shot in order to play it.
would Unnatural Compulsion permit a munchkin to take doppelganger and actively misuse it? Can you use Unnatural Compulsion in general to improperly exhaust one shots weather or not its effects can be applied?
Do you think House Rules are dumb?
