Are game play settings/terms important and necessary to determine prior to each game I play?
Most definitely! Prior to starting a game, opponents should discuss, agree upon & enter the game play settings/terms. These settings must be adhered to throughout the game. If any player does not stick to the predetermined game play settings, it will be considered cheating. Rules are never assumed. They must be included in the game play settings before the start of each game/match. If a game/match is started without discussing & entering game play settings, rules do not exist for that game/match.
