- Balderdash (aka "A fabdearthery vocabulary"): Use a unique word from the "Excellent words that aren't actually words" thread that, as true to the title, isn't actually a word.
- Fremp was added by Wheat midround, which is what allowed it to pass. It just had to be in there, which prevented this rule from ever becoming impossible to pass, because you could always add new words.
- Quibble, which Reyweld posted really early, is actually a word. Sorry.
- This is actually the only one which I had thought for a prior round, and was what inspired this round.
- Flawless (aka "I may have had regrets"): All complete sentences, of which there must be at least one, must be in a perfect tense.
- Patience (aka "Everybody else post now"): The poster must not have posted in the five posts before.
- Yes (aka "How do you say 'bad pun' in Spanish?"): The post must have exactly one c.
- C, sí, get it? Haha, I crack myself up sometimes. Probably nobody else.
- Fingertips (aka "Post making contest counts to three"): The post, as well as the two before, must form a counting sequence.
- Both ascending and descending worked, so 45-46-47 and 95-94-93 would work.
- That is the OpenOffice formula which I used to grade Sruix's rule 5 hell posts. The non-blank values were highlighted, and so I had much less to check than the however many values.Code:
=CONCATENATE(IF(ISERROR(HLOOKUP(A3-1;$A1:$AMJ1;1;FALSE()));"";"-");IF(ISERROR(HLOOKUP(A3+1;$A1:$AMJ1;1;FALSE()));"";"+"))
