Yes, that is of course not a bad idea, but sometimes it might be worthwhile to struggle
with the "impossible" (at least on a thought-level which we do here) in order to explore
the possibilities. Then whatever comes out of this may be integrated in other contexts
at a later stage.
It might be fruitful to rethink the basic structure, rather than just fixing the classic
one.

Yes, but it doesn't necessarily have to involve punishment. You may consider creating a
basic general game for everybody and "special" games for those that have the extra time.
(I'm not saying it is going to be easy to maintain perceived fairness though)

I guess that would depend on the gamesystem and how it is balanced... I'd like to see
some conceptual models of different gamesystems and their basic concepts. That would
make discussions like this easier.

I wasn't aware that I was unpleasant? (You asked for my ideas, I think?)

I'm afraid I don't quite understand what "agreement is" means. (I'm norwegian remember!)
