[CQ-Contest] Non-assisted & Assisted

Each contest has its own rules.  Do you expect all contests to be the same?
Why?

Which contest are you talking about when you say "a contest's rules say
nothing about Assisted operation"?

Both of the contests you then cite, explicitly address this issue, so it's
not clear to me what you're getting at.

1) ARRL RTTY Roundup:  "Single Operator entrants may not use any form of
spotting assistance".
2) CQ WPX RTTY:              "Use of QSO alerting assistance is permitted in
all categories".

It seems these two that you mention are pretty definitive although quite
different.

If a contest's rules say nothing about Assisted operation, does that mean  
it's allowed without restriction? 
 
Note that Single-Op has no uniform definition.  For example, in the  ARRL 
RTTY Roundup, Single-Ops cannot be Assisted, while in the CQ WPX  RTTY 
everyone can operate Assisted.
