As we've said, learn the rules and break a few is fine. It's how society evolves and advances.
Completely disregard the rules and you're a sociopath.
I take it that the bit about my lead character parachuting out of a jet plane and his parachute getting caught on top of the Eiffel Tower breaks the rules then..... 
I had a friend who refused to go to Amsterdam because she had heard it was full of cycle paths.
(But yes I read the guidlelines - seemed very clear!)

Now come on people! We tried to make them idiot proof and have obviously succeeded!

What about if he rides a horse at a gallop to catch a speeding train, then jumps on the train and gets knocked out after standing up just as the train hits a tunnel? 
Have you been to the theatre Spiggle?

Back on topic. Wondering what the cull rate is percentage wise for obvious ignoring of guidelines? Over ten percent of the four hundred??
Quote: Declan @ February 17 2012, 10:23 AM GMTSorry, I have to post this.
Can we have a straw poll:
Who actually read the guidelines? Because there's some funny fish out there who definitely didn't.
I really thought that folks having to part with money to enter would put an end to that for you guys, but clearly not...
(BTW I read the guidelines...but didn't enter, not sure if that counts!)
