I used to think my game group was too competitive until a rainy Tuesday in March

We were playing a new worker placement game and my friend Mark spent 15 minutes explaining a rule he thought was unfair. Instead of arguing, everyone listened and we found a fix in the rulebook. That simple talk turned a tense night into our best session this year. Has your group ever solved a big rule argument without anyone getting mad?

I mean, that "simple talk" thing sounds nice but it never works in my group.

What's the actual thing that stops the talk from working in your group? Like, is it one person who won't budge or does everyone just talk over each other?

Man, I feel that, what makes your group blow up over rules? Mine used to get stuck on tiny wording things until we agreed to just check the book first.
