Rules:
Show Content
SpoilerRule 1: Revenge - You must follow rule 1 from your most recently hosted ruleset. If you haven't hosted a ruleset yet, this rule always passes.
People who always pass: Kieros, Gatr, ICan'tGiveCredit, maybe others
People who ended up always passing: Reyweld (never mentioned Reyweld in any of their posts)
People who ended up sometimes passing/nonpassing: Ixcaliber (use a unique word never used in the round), qwerx3 (post at least an hour after the previous post)
- These were the things I was trying to emphasize if people wanted to deduce what Rule 1 was.
People who had really hard rules that never passed: Sruixan (all words in xkcd simplewriter), Akumu (alphanumeric value = post number), Schazer (make a bird pun), Kaynato (post contains a secret), Fogel (post contains a GB adjective and a GB noun), Laser (post contains 8 i's), CrimsonMage (post contains a fictional object with description), possibly others
Rule 2: Flawless - Posts must be unedited at time of judging.
Rule 3: Delay - If a post [not made by the round host] contains a positive integer, call the first occurrence of such an integer X. The post X after this one passes the rule.
- Somewhat interestingly, Sruixan's updates #159-164 ended up passing posts (159-164 posts later) - in fact update #164 was post 6797, so it passed the winning post (as well as the 3 mentioned in qwerx3 in post 6958).
Rule 4: Recursion - Post must link to itself.
Rule 5: Predict - Post must mention the user to post next.
- Can be from a quote tag (which was how the rule was being passed at the beginning). I was expecting people to pass either by mentioning their own name and doubleposting, or mentioning my name [which I'm not mean enough to prevent people from winning]
