What happens if two rules conflict? Or are mutually exclusive?

Like, if you take tiles, replace with slopes AND if you take tiles

I suppose that it should be against the rules to make rules that are
mutually exclusive.  So if you wanted to add the tiles -> windows rule,
you would have to choose the tiles -> to slopes rule to cross out.

Should you only follow one rule in the box for the time you have it? (I would

stuff for another from the box, and that you couldn't break any rules in

how you trade with the box?  Is it like you're making a bunch of smaller
trades instead of one big one?

I like the idea of personality stuff, but I think it should be limited to
pictures (4x6 or smaller)to save on weight.

No hair?

You should be able to add back an expired rule if you like it, but not one
that you caused to expire.

I really think this box will die a horrible, quick death. Once you get more than about 3 rules going, many people are going to get the box, and have NOTHING that meets the rules to grab a piece they want. I would have zero interest in such a box. At (...)
