(Here you go:My translation of some of the rules in "canonical" form! I did this for Blank Slate, and I found a place to put them in here!)

1 (also includes 2):This is a GAME SHOW. This isn't TV-MA, so unless you want to get kicked off of the show, place, stick to that rating! We want to actually be able to air the show!

3:Okay, there's no translation here. But this rule is obvious. People don't DECIDE who dies! And relationships are two-way!

4:We don't want a bunch of gods all ruining the show with their godlike powers, do we? Until we've analyzed these characters and decided they would not ruin the tension of the show.. We're not letting them compete!

5:This one's another obvious one. The main host is the one who decides the rules of the show, right?

6:No translation needed. (It's not like all the hosts have to know what the plan is! They may very well think they're putting on a normal game show! And evil characters can still be put in, as long as they wouldn't hamper the actual show.)

7:(Okay, are the boats the teams, or the themes? If they're teams, the translation is that we can't have one team overpower the other, so the host would eventually force the new contestants to choose the other team. If they're events, then this rule is made on the basis of a balance of tension and drama. If one challenge has 30 competitors and the other only has 8, that wouldn't really work.)

8:No translation required. (What, you'd think they'd limit contestants to characters from worlds popular in the context of another world? [our own])

9 (displayed as 8 for some reason-Your labels need fixing):Just stick to the contest! You're supposed to try to win the contest, within the rules! Don't act like SMG4 Mario.

10:What's all of this drama for? This is all a gameshow, with a prize for the winners! The losers just go home! The winner gets a prize!

10M:Look. Your characters don't KNOW the truth about the game show. Just that they were forced into it. And the main host wouldn't choose characters who would get too suspicious and figure out the true nature. At least, not quickly, and not at the start. The illusion is going to stay, at least for a while... (M is for meta)

11:(Skipping the blacklisted one, as it's purely meta, thereby also re-aligning with the number labels.):Seriously. It's a GAME show. Don't forget that.
