This is an expression of non-fun, however the image itself is fun. This is a fun police conundrum. What do you think chief?

Balladeer is a known non-fun offender and should not be trusted. Do as you see fit Officer Karl but know that I am watching your performance closely

I'm sorry Balladeer but I'm going to have to confiscate a fun point. However I believe you can reform and learn to express your enjoyment of the game as a fully FUNctional member of society :msgreen:

My final rule proposal for the day:

Category: One-time rules

Now that the game has become fun, and has three working currencies, we clearly have an economy going, and within this economy there's a currency that simply doesn't fit anymore.

As such, this rule suggests that Euros are replaced with Blueberry MegaCoins, with immediate effect.

The person with the most Blueberry MegaCoins has the ability to Blueberry Float. This is fun and is basically a superpower (though it serves no in-game purpose)
The person with the fewest Blueberry MegaCoins is officially the Blueberry Fool.
In the event that either of these roles is involved in a Duel, it is officially a Blueberry Duel.
If the Blueberry Float defeats the Blueberry Fool in a Blueberry Duel, all game rules must be rewritten within 24 hours so that they rhyme. The fun police chief at the time dictates the meaning of "rhyme". Any rules that cannot be thusly rewritten are struck out.

For: TBBSP (1)
Against: (0)
Majority: +1

It’s a FUNdamental problem with the system.

Hexx wrote:I'm too confused. Can I just quit?

You can idle into oblivion if you like. Many others have. :(

The short, non-confusing version:
- Rulez meanz coinz, either suggesting them or voting them up;
- If Investigator: try to figure out who the Aberrations are by PMing OR with ‘Investigate [user]’;
- If Aberration: blend in, gather coins, and confuse people by PMing OR with ‘Corrupt [user]’ (but this costs coins).

Almost everything else is fun/fluff!

I hope that the Blueberry Float never defeats the Blueberry Fool in a Blueberry Duel because clearly none of us will follow through and rewrite anything, but hey at least I get basically veto there as the Fun Police chief!

This is all-in a very fun proposal and I reward it with 5 Fun Points.

Someone should propose a rule that a "rules summary" should be maintained with Balla as the officially appointed Rule Summariser. I think I've done my proposals/amendments for the day.

I can’t vote for Dan’s rule without the spellings of ‘Dual’ being corrected, I’m afraid.

Happy to be elected Rule Bloke, but wouldn’t I need to be able to edit the OP? :?

...I've just realised the "No Edit" rule doesn't not apply to the OP

Guys I might be in trouble. (Un)fortunately for rule enforcement, because I have some mod powers it hasn't tracked the number of edits I've made :shifty: :lol:

:lol:

STANDALONE RULE: KING OF FUN
Upon the passing of this rule, all penalties for previous edits of the OP are revoked.

From that point in time onwards, any edits to the OP by OR shall be paid for not in Doubloons, but in fun. Specifically, OR must upon each edit pay 5 Fun Points to a person, for a contrived or otherwise reason. When he loses all Fun Points, in this manner or otherwise, the title of Chief of Fun Police passes to the person with the most Fun Points at that time. From then on, all edits to the OP are exempt from normal editing rules and may be performed freely.

I can't amend it until tomorrow but we can just invoke rule 8 and OR can determine my misspelling is a misinterpretation and correct accordingly as he adds to the OP.

I vote for the King of Fun rule.

I vote for Dan’s rule conditional on Rule 8 being invoked and the spelling being implemented.
