[Fluxx] Re: the printed rules to Fluxx (Austin Muhlestein)

I think setting up an example game for players to watch step by step how a 
short game would look would help a lot. It might give people that visual aid 
of others actually playing the game that they need to understand the rules.  
I hope this is clear, here is how my example game would go and incorperate 
all the kinds of cards you would see.

-Introduction (an explantion about the basic rules and the kinds of cards)

-First example turn (Show player A drawing 1 card, and playing 1 card.  
Perhaps a new rule 'Draw 3'  could be played. If that was the case player A 
would then draw 2 more cards.)

-Second Turn (Show player B drawing 3 cards following the new rule, and then 
playing his card.  Perhaps he plays the Love keeper)

-Third Turn (Show player A drawing 3 cards and playing 1 card.  Perhaps an 
action, 'Take another turn'.)

-Fourth Turn (Show player A taking another turn.  Draw 3, Play one. He plays 
a new rule, Inflation (the card i get most questions about.)  Player A then 
draws 1 more card and plays 1 more card.  he plays 'the rocket' keeper.)

-Final Turn (Player B Draws 4 cards (inflation) and plays 2 cards. The first 
play a new rule 'Hand Limit 1' Forcing player A to discard down to 2 cards) 
and then at last a goal 'All you need is love" winning the game!!!)

I think with some pictures to go along, something like this would show a 
very simple game but at the same time show how some of the cards are played 
and what the results of that play look like.  Like I said, it could be a 
helpful visual aid of how a game is played.  But I was thinking more along 
the lines of a step-by-step guild rather then a video so you could move at 
your own pace. What do you guys think?
