two-room rule

A common occurrence in video games, where, due to RAM limitations, only the room that the player is currently in, and the previously-visited room, are stored in memory. A player can use the two-room rule to his advantage, causing a room to reset, and all enemies and items to respawn, by simply visiting two other rooms.

Player starts in room A.
Player goes to room B.
Player goes to room C.
Player goes back to room A. All enemies and items in room A have reappeared, due to the two-room rule.

The Puffy Coat rule

A unwritten yet indisputable rule within professional football: When the manager of a professional football team wears a puffy coat to the game his team will lose.

In an instance where the manager of both teams wears a puffy coat those teams shall draw but with notably bad defending from both sides to prevent supporters being satisfied with the point.

Only Arsene Wenger is able to defy the puffy coat rule. His Arsenal side defeating the widely accepted 'best team in the world' Barcelona 2-1 despite their manager sporting the oversized coat.

Roy Hodgson and his puffy coat were relieved of the role of manager today after they lead Liverpool to their worst start for over 50 years. Hodgson another victim of the puffy coat rule having only been at the reigns for 31 games (the shortest in the club's history.)

Arsenal completed their comeback against Barcelona to win 2-1 courtesy of a strike by Andrei Arshavin. This result came despite their manager Arsene Wenger sporting a puffy coat on the touchline. Contrary to the puffy coat rule.

The Broadhurst Rule

Rule that is put into effect on certain social occasions that require multiple people to split a bill that could potentially cause complications. Someone must state ahead of time that the Broadhurst rule is "in effect" or else no one can be expected to observe it. When the rule is in effect, everyone attending the event must bring cash so no debit or credit cards have to be thrown onto the table in a massive, confusing pile. If someone forgets to observe the rule, they must pay for the whole bill with their card or leave right away at the beginning of the event.

You and 5 friends are going out to dinner to celebrate someone's birthday, ahead of time you state that the Broadhurst rule is "in effect" everyone except your friend Wayne brings cash to split the bill. Wayne now has to pay for the whole bill.
