Yes, guidelines. That is the word I've been trying to best descrinbe
it. I am afraid hard coding (and I am fully prepared to be proven
wrong on this) would make it too much of a numbers game and not about
creative writing. Maybe all of us should try and iron out a defenition
of what we consider 'decent, near-realistic' enough to qualify as
acceptable?
