YAY THIS POST PASSES ALL FIVE RULES

Rules and things to come shortly

The rules:

Show Content

SpoilerRule 1: Post must mention a number larger than all previously mentioned numbers in the round, in plaintext. This can be written out as an expression.
(Understood by Kieros)

Current record to beat: 111222444555666777888 (21 digits)

Rule 2: Every non-whitespace character in the post must be used an equal number of times.
(Understood by Akumu/Sruixan)

Rule 3: If a rule mentions or implies that it passes rule 3, it passes rule 3. (e.g. "This post passes rule 3" or "This post passes all of the rules")
(Understood by Dragon Fogel)


Rule 4: Post must be made exactly 24 hours (as judged by the nearest minute timestamp) after another post in the thread.
(not really understood ever)

Rule 5: Post must satisfy all five rules of the most recently posted ruleset from the Easier Mode thread.
(Understood by Kieros)

Things:
- Rule 1 wants big numbers but rule 2 makes a halfhearted attempt to limit this. This was really the only form of rules synergy. Rules 3 and 5 passed very infrequently and rule 4 was really random
- I was sad a little with the first time the post number was posted. Rule 1 was originally intended to pass some Sruixan updates but he was sleeping after hosting a rules hell.
- I kinda passed rule 3 on my picture because it was talking about passing some rules 3. But then it was also talking about failing some rules 3.
- I kinda didn't pass rule 3 on #7808 due to "can my post pass a rule?".
- Posts that "almost passed rule 5" were those which would've passed if posted 5 minutes later or so (since the easyPMC round would've been over then) - this happened posts #7923 and #7991

Moderation tips for Rules Hell hosts:

- Always keep track of the largest number posted so far (this is just a single number to keep track of)
- It's good to keep open two tabs of PMC open at once, one of them 24 hours in the past.
- qhex is my tool of choice for counting characters. It drops spaces but fortunately you don't care about those.

Chronology of sadness (last hour or so):

The next pass would've been in 73 minutes and I would've been REALLY REALLY SAD

Hey, who's excited for a nice blast from the past? I know a lot of the recent sets had cool names, and I don't want to be cut off from getting in on this upcoming trend, so let's use these ones which everyone had so much fun with! >:3c

• Balderdash
• Flawless
• Patience
• Yes
  
  And last, but certainly not least because everyone loved it so much...
  
• Fingertips

This could go completely belly-up immediately.

How absurd! I am clearly right there. A false sentence cannot say that it is true.

Fremp is an eagle time meme.

Every even number at least 4 is the sum of two primes.

Any even number greater than or equal to six can be expressed as the sum of two odd prime numbers.

All squares of prime numbers greater than 3 are one greater than a multiple of 24.

There is no set with cardinality strictly greater than the set of positive integers and strictly less than the set of all positive real numbers.

Define f(x)= 3x+1 if x is odd, and x/2 if x is even. Given any positive integer N, the sequence N, f(N), f(f(N)), ... will eventually become periodic, specifically cycling between 4, 2, 1.

1+1=2.

2+2=5.
