The method may include displaying a graphical user interface including a polygon having at least three edges and an icon at a first position within the polygon. Each edge of the polygon may be associated with a potential outcome of at least one rule. An input to move the icon to a second position within the polygon may be received. The graphical user interface may be displayed with the icon at the second position within the polygon. A distance from the second position of the icon to each edge of the polygon may be determined. The rule(s) may be adjusted based on the distance from the second position of the icon to each edge of the polygon. A system and computer program product are also disclosed. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A method for configuring at least one rule, comprising: displaying, with at least one processor, a graphical user interface comprising a polygon having at least three edges and an icon at a first position within the polygon, wherein each edge of the polygon is associated with a potential outcome of at least one rule;
