Christian, I'm kind of amazed how you can vilify rule zero when it cuts some PC's ears off, and laud it when it can make someone win when they rolled a loss, in paragraphs that are right next to each other?
As I said before, for my standards it does matter that we previously agreed to a certain authority structure. In the very least it matters as I will avoid and decline joining a game with someone who says it doesn't matter, as it's just breaking agreements and promises, to me.
I'm pretty sure alot of the world, in many activities, shares this standard. I can't walk into a store, take a can maked $4 and pay $2 as if it would take my ongoing consent for it to be $4. I'd give more pedantic examples, but it takes up space.
Does one have to have this standard? No. So does the smelly chamberlain have to include it? No. But given it's predominance in the rest of the worlds activities, it's strange that it doesn't. I'm not laying a big moral trip, I'm pointing out something that may be of interest. Or it may not.
Carsten, I'm pretty sure I fully agree with your post.
