Breaking the Rules - Ch 21

Behavior of the rule-breaker player: adherence to rules, interest in winning, degree of lusory attitude

Player types:
standard: honest, typical rule follower
dedicated, hardcore, interested in winning, possesses lusory attitude
unsportsmanlike, follows the rules but violates spirit of lusory attitude, violates implicit rules because of their strong ambition to win, e.g. older sibling doesn’t let younger sibling to win
cheat, violates formal rules to win, secretly break the rules
spoil-sport, hardly a player, doesn’t acknowledge the magic circle

degenerate strategy or exploit: playing the game by ensuring victory every time
