With most board games, it is possible to devise a solution, "official" or not,
to the satisfaction of the players.  Once a given rule is accepted, enforcement
generally isn't much of a problem.  In computer games, for some reason only
technological limitations are seen as "rules" that have to be obeyed.  The
"because I can" defense would never work for a board game.

Solution?  Play the games against adults with enough restraint to play the game
as intended and not in a manner to exploit flaws.
