This is post #1. It violates the following rules: 1, 2, 3 and 4.

Only posts so far to pass Rule 1. Content doesn't appear to be the factor. Anyone see anything in the timestamps/post number?

Sruix isn't allowed to sleep til we solve this.

Also note Sruix lives in a different timezone than most of us.

This post violates rules 4 and 5.

I would also like you guys to solve this before I go to bed. Also, I'm writing this in purple now because I just previewed this post and dear lord it's pretty dense otherwise.

This violated 1 and 4.

Together, they violate 1, 4, and 5.

This post violates rules 1 and 4.

All but one of them immediately followed a post (not counting Sruix's rule-checks_ that violated rules 1-4. This post is the only exception.

Maybe Rule 1 has something to do with the previous post?

This post violates rules 1, 4 and 5.

It also doesn't seem to have anything to do with the poster of the previous message, as Bob has gotten successful Rule 1s when I had the last message and when he did. He has also failed Rule 1 in both cases.

I also considered "starts with the final letter of the previous post" but that didn't get me anywhere.

This post violates rules 2, 3 and 4.

[POST #201, WHICH I AM NOT QUOTING FOR BREVITY]

This post violates rule 4.

EDIT: okay it doesn't actually violate rule 5 it's late and that was a long post

RE: Post making contest - btp - 04-23-2016

Rule 1: Changes even when the exact same message is given
Rule 2: No idea. Maybe it's some kind of range?
Rule 3: Post must ask a question
Rule 4: No idea. Some posts that quote or link to Lankie's Winky post pass it and some do not.
Rule 5: Also no idea.

Well we have 1/5 for sure.

Sruix is just too good at puzzles. Hot damn.

SECRET RULE 6!

...and also this post violates rules 1, 2, 3 and 4.

NOT QUITE A HINT BUT MORE AN ADVISORY: I like my posts on the shorter side, uncharacteristically.

EDIT: I KEEP MAKING MISTAKES

That's Post 201 again in the spoiler. Does this work? If it violates Rule 1 only, will it work if posted repeatedly?

I think having a question mark in a quote box breaks Rule 4. I don't claim to understand how.
