So because I personally do not enjoy playing hockey, hockey is not a game?

You are describing a toy, not a game. A game, by definition, entails
agreement among multiple parties on what the rules are. The difference
between your perception of the rules and someone else's perception of
the rules is called "cheating". Since I write UI automation code, I
might write a program that plays the boring parts of the game for me.
Since you probably don't expect that, and can't do it yourself, you
would probably call it cheating. - [DESIGN] What is a game? (again) was:[Excellent commentary on Vanguard's diplomacy system] cruise
