"In fact, and in fullness of candor, I must admit I find that those things for which a given game provides procedures are often those things which are least interesting about it. After all, what meaning is there in being provided a strict answer by some arcane mechanism? Very little, I contend. In my estimable estimation, I find most interesting and most meaningful those things for which the game provides no guidance whatever. That empty space becomes a vacuum into which meaning flows like life-giving breath."
