A place in which you can ask a random question, and get a ruling, so the game can go on. Sometimes I think it would be faster than looking it up…and sometimes not finding a paragraph that covers that situation, or it is poorly explained… I have used TMP in the past, and got a timely ruling. Any suggestions?

Would this be for a specific set of rules or for all rules in general? Would there be a full time staff with full knowledge of all the rules covered? How long would it take to get a reply? Would is take longer than the 1 or 2 minutes spent looking in a book? Is this a viable idea?

I think if you sign up, indicate what rules you could adjudicate- off the top of your head, and have messages/ notifications light your phone up 24/7 😜 I'm sure it's not a difficult app to develop.

Appoint umpire before game. They make the call. If not sure, roll D6, odds set by umpire. No precedent is set. Find acceptable rule explanation after the game.

I've had a couple times when a player messaged me on google while they were at the gaming table, and I happened to be on the computer, so they got live rules clarifications :-)
