3) the rule that you can cheat. If I'm subjected to Munckin, I put whatever we're tracking levels with at 9 to start. The first time I go up a level, I announce that I've won. Works 99% of the time, and then no-one has to play Munckin anymore.

tl:dr would be a fun game if it took minutes not hours
I didn't even know about this rule! Wow.

The issue I have with Munchkin is that it barely qualifies as a game.
All the cards essentially boil down to: temporary/permanent bonus/penalty.
After all the politicking is finished, add up the bonuses, subtract the penalties, figure out which number is bigger, draw some random bonus/penalty cards, rinse and repeat.

Oh, and there's the "humour".
Hurr hurr hurr, that cartoony drawing looks a bit like that thing out of DnD/Cthulhu/Star Wars/Adventure Time but it has a punny name.
And you know what doesn't improve a bad DnD pun? Seeing the same pun again the next time you play.

Now now, that's a step too far. Thou shalt not speak ill of a good pun.

Good pun may qualify as an oxymoron.

Aside from the game mechanics being, er, improvable, I do like the humour. Old Boys Club anyone? It's an actual Club! No.....? Just me then.
