While this is obviously a great way to prohibit foul play, it would need a whole lot of time and creativity to work out that list, and even then there would be things that should be allowed but weren't there.
A part of the charm of these tick style games, is to work out new ways to play, strategies, techniques etc. If you would take away this, regardless of how long the list was and what was in it, I think it would also discourage a lot of people from playing. If it could be implemented without that major problem - I actually like the idea. I just don't think that it is realistic.
