So you're not talking about a rule (is it a rule? or advice?) like, "Say Yes or Roll the Dice?"
In Dogs, it sounds like....advice?
In Burning Wheel, it sounds like a rule...
and you're not talking about an idea like: whether your roll succeeds or fails, something interesting happens, always. We never have nothing happen.
