Well put, but "It's your game, play it your way" implies that people without self-control can exploit the game engine all they want to. Heck, the game even lets you can go the editor and make a superteam and go undefeated if you lack any self-control at all.

But...just because someone can't control themselves doesn't mean that the game needs to be changed for everyone else. If that were the case then the editor would have to be removed.
