Aha. SpookyBeans used to be a 1-page download. The dispute resolution mechanism is extremely simplistic and flexible, and is more about disputes between players rather than characters, like the kind you mentioned. Basically, anything can happen if anyone says it happens, and then the rules come into play when people disagree about what happens.
I agree that meta-level disputes about “what the story should be about” and such are outside the scope of the D&D rules. But I still haven’t seen anything that addresses those better than “have the players work that out somehow”.
