RE: Post making contest
So what are the different categories of rules?

For instance, we have "simple inclusive rules": These are rules that require something to be present in a post, and only rely on the items inside of a post.

Copying a post that passes with a simple inclusive rule will always pass that rule.

Conversely we have "simple exclusive rules": These are rules that prohibit something to be present in a post, and only rely on items in the post.

Copying a post that breaks a simple exclusive rule will always break that rule.

What do you guys think? Are any of Akumu's rules simple exclusive or simple inclusive? How would you categorize some of the other possible rules?

Rules which require a count GREATER THAN a number are also simple inclusive; rules which require a count LESS THAN a number are simple exclusive. However, there are rules which have both GREATER THAN and LESS THAN requirements, which do not cleanly fit into either category. Additionally, there can be more complex counting-based rules, such as 'the number of e's in the post must be a prime number', which is not a simple greater than/less than comparison."

"And then, of course, there are meta rules which take into account the fact that this takes place on a forum. We have seen plenty of examples. Or perhaps the forum-specific rules should be considered separately from rules about rules? I'm not sure offhand."

RE: Post making contest
Categories:
  • Simple Rules [inclusive and exclusive]
  • Counting rules [greater than, less than, ranged continuous, ranged sporadic]
  • Post specific rules [Post contextual, thread contextual]
  • Self-referential rules

Post specific rules are rules that take into account things that are not within the poster's immediate control. Post contextual are things within a user's post like, post number, username, date/time stamps. Thread contextual are rules that take into account aspects of posts outside of the post being evaluated: the post before this one, the first post on the page, etc.

Self-referential rules are those that reference the ruleset itself. Rules are self-referential if their condition is dependent on the outcome of other rules. Non-self-referential rules are all evaluated independently of each other. Things like rule 3 is only broken if rule five is broken and x happens. DF's "post a zero if you don't break any rules." is an example of this, and one that can be difficult to identify.


Of course, the follow up for this is to see if we can come up with a reliable litmus test for each of these categories.
