Post making contest 4.0

wow would you look at it #7573 (unix%34=4) passes 4.1

Sadly #7544 has unix%34=23 and almost certainly doesn't have three happy adjectives

Shoot, unless Sruix is implementing these "unless it breaks" things...

Post Baking Concert

Yeah ok #7554 doesn't quote anywhere, so unix%34 doesn't control rule 1.

Which, honestly, is good news.

Ix, I don't think all of those are real Pokemon.

EASPWA is my favourite pokemon

Ix, I don't think all of those are real Pokemon.

Of course they aren't all real. Seriously, who's ever heard of a Pokemon named Flareon?

And everyone knows that they used the actual gender symbols instead of letters in "Nicorsn m".

Nicorsn ♄

Everything Kaynato posted on 302 is the most exquisite and shittiest of shitposts

also Qwerx3's rules summary superpost is also, agglomerated in such a fashion, also a glorious shitpost

Judgements in a bit, but first - I originally said that #7547 passed rules 1 and 2. This was wrong - it only passes 2. Likewise, #7548 was originally said to pass just rules 2 and 3, when it does in fact pass rule 5 as well. Clearly I was beginning to slip due to tiredness just then... I'll edit the relevant grading post forthwith...

(I think those are the only mistakes...)

sruix on a scale of yes to yes do you regret taking on this rules hell?

goodnight sruix

sweet dreams sweet prince

This post passes rules 2 and 4.

Sadly #7544 has unix%34=23 and almost certainly doesn't have three happy adjectives

Shoot, unless Sruix is implementing these "unless it breaks" things...

sruix on a scale of yes to yes do you regret taking on this rules hell?

I have just had to grade most of this set of posts twice. The scale is very much at the yes end right now. Your post passes rules 2 and 5, anyway.
