I encountered the phrase
"Paida fun is free-wheeling player fun, where rules are a convenience."
in the context of roleplaying games. As a native German speaker, I am uncertain of the meaning of the phrase, am I correct to guess:
"Paida fun is free-wheeling player fun, where rules are not so important, but simply used beacause it is easier to use rules than not to have rules at all."
It is a pun intended to add 'fun.'
And, you guessed it correctly!
...'where rules are a convenience.' means rules are just for fun and not to bother you. They are convenient!
Another such sentence I remember is: There's only one rule that there is no rule!
