To declare obsolete any game that does not have a "draw your robot" space on the character sheet.

"But Ben!" you protest feebly, "my game does not have robots at all!"

"and whose fault is that," I respond, shaking my head slowly at your blindness, "and whose fault is that, in the end?"

I second this motion, but add the "really cool draw-your-map-as-part-of-play" alternative, especially if you get to write stats on the map.

Hrm.  I consider that decidedly inferior to drawing your robot.

But... if you insist.

"Draw" indeed!

Ben, why do you think I had to make my own Burning Wheel character sheets?  Where was all that robot gonna go?

Prequel, actually.

I'm glad to see spirited discussion, but you can't change a universal truth by arguing.
