Not sure how to interpret your statement. the double negatives are confusing me as to the meaning of your comment.

Runners are not automatically advanced when obstructed; judge the base the runner would have obtained w/o OBS.
In that other game, there is an automatic advance. His point is not to apply another game's rule in a softball game.
