[rules-users] A truly sibylline method

Ancient Sibyls, such as the famous Pythia, frequently responded to supplicants' questions in a dark and mysterious way. (Croesus, for instance, was told that attacking the Persians would "destroy a great empire"; that this could also mean his own did not occur to him.)
