Coincidentally, Vincent, I was just today remembering that you once wrote that the most important rule in DITV is "Actively reveal the town in play." This is nothing the players can make the GM do. It's the kind of thing that some people would castigate as "not a rule at all, just advice" in a non-"indie" game. But your "a" and "b" in 96 seem to apply to it. There is a wrinkle, which is that sincere GMs new to the game can screw it up because the little voice of habit whispers, "Don't tell them that! Cause then they'll know!" But that just says that not everyone does every new thing perfectly right from the start. (I mean, I hope it's not just me . . . )
