I think it's more that 1up have a better grasp of the English language and reading through the rules than some of the other HC (due to them being foreign).
So before you try to twist a rule or find a loophole in it (using the small planets joining tag to keep score down as an example) you check the rules, ensure that you can work your way around the wording, and then put it to the team.
There's also the fact you check with the team beforehand to see if it's ok. I suspect that if you hadn't done that, and had implemented it without asking, we'd have seen them closed (and then perhaps reopened following investigation) for breaking the rules.
I don't think it's "favouritism" - that's silly. It's more that you have a good relationship with the PA Team and can argue your case better where there is any kind of ambiguity.
Which is why we need rules to be concrete and standard - so we all know where we stand. So there shouldn't
be a need to argue with the MH/PATeam.
