Stats for your interest (also possible recalibration if I messed up):
You've passed rule 3 29 times so far. You've passed rule 4 11 times so far. You've passed rule 5 5 times so far.

Well, we haven't made much progress in either, so I guess it's fine.

On the positive side: we solved one of the least-solved puzzles of the new set.
On the negative: we haven't solved any others.

Threads can creep a bit over 100 pages with no problem so in the event this thread bumps over that next time I can split things off the back end instead of the front?

Then one of the pieces of nonsense passes a rule we have trouble passing and usually that's when it becomes a meme.
When we actually attempt to solve PMC rounds, usually what we do is look at posts that pass a particular rule and see if we can spot anything similar about them. If that doesn't work, we ask for hints.
Sometimes we just flat-out interrogate the host on Discord and get very heavy hints.
This post probably doesn't pass rule 4, I don't know, I haven't been paying that much attention this round.

Whoops, 7) weird dog wouldn't pass rule 3. Consider the excerpt "prune the main thread" instead

Passes both rules 1 and 2! Good work.

At this current state, Rules 2 and 5 are not simultaneously satisfiable. (Although I suspect rules 3, 4, and 5 are all very difficult to attain at the current point.)

I read the Walking Dead Vol 1 yesterday and it made me suspect that the author of that particular comic would actually prefer a world in which zombies happened because fuck milennials and their safe spaces amirite?

Well that's weird. There were two posts, made hours ago, but when I clicked on Last Post it brought me to the first post of the thread?
Or did I click on the thread title accidentally? I'm not very awake yet so I guess that's possible.

No, I went back in my browser and Last Post was highlighted. Clicked it again and it went back to my post.
