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.


For: The Funless Wonder, Dan, OrangeRKN (3)
Against: (0)
Majority: (+3)

So it must be done

I gave Balladeer 5 Fun Points for such a FUN rule

Funtastic!! :D (takes King’s fun shilling)

Genuinely can’t think of any new rules at this time, and I’m waiting for some... results to come through. :shifty:

Agh nothing useful. Still though, shall we start to build a townblock?

Curls is town/Investigators. I thought it might help to look at some lurkers... not in this case. :( Don’t believe anybody but me has spent points thus far, so I trust the read.

I have spent some points... I investigated you. And you're with Curls and myself. So we can build from here.

I've not been tracking points so it's hard to verify if any of these "investigations" are legitimate at this point.

Although given that both Inv and Ab powers cost the same amount that wouldn't tell us much anyway! :lol:

So we've got:

* Balladeer claiming to be an Investigator and verifying Curls as an Investigator.
* Dan claiming to be an Investigator and verifying Balladeer as an Investigator.

The second line there potentially validates the first one!

Myself, Karl and Balladeer are the only ones with enough points to do any more investigating, although Balladeer is still subject to the 24h cooldown I think?

Just expired, sent off another one. I’m also going to propose an AMENDMENT TO RULE 32:

An Aberration player can spend five Forum Doubloons to target their corrupting influence at another player by PMing the Game Master with "Corrupt [username]". The targeted player will be in a corrupted state for the next 48 hours, and will not be made aware of this. Any investigations (see rule 22) made against a corrupted player will return as showing them in the Aberrations team, regardless of their true team alignment. Note that the timing of an investigation will be considered to be the timing of its submission, not of the receiving of results.

The same player may not be corrupted for another 48h following their recovery from corruption. If during these 96h another Aberration attempts to corrupt that player, they will be told ASAP via PM by the Game Master that their corruption failed, and no Doubloons will be deducted.


Some clarity over timings, and preventing people from being ‘corruption-locked’. Also, is it just me or is setting everyone to Aberration a bit weak? Would consider an amendment that flips alignment, for extra confusion.

I still intend to pass a rule preventing team-switching by the way.

I vote for your rule Balladeer.

I also propose this. Category player roles:

Players assigned the team alignment "investigator" cannot at any time through any method be switched or also assigned to the team alignment "aberration".

Players assigned the team alignment "aberration" cannot at any time through any method be switched or also assigned to the team alignment "investigator".

-1, that's pointless -- a rule can't bind the hands of future rules obviously!

I’ll get back to Dan’s rule, but: Mr. GM, how specific does the naming need to be for an investigation to work? I think I should have one coming back, but...

The sad thing about this dying a bit is that I've received very few Dan name change requests :(

The GM's broken the 72h rule, I think that means the game is formally over. :P

Woo, go Team Nomicade!

Well, I had fun. I think Hexx summed up the reason that it died in the end: it just got too complicated for anyone who wasn’t a dedicated player to follow. However, that’s always going to be the trouble with a game like this; I don’t think that’s avoidable unless you slap a rule limit on very early days, which kind of removes the point. Also I didn’t really have the time or creative inclination to start a Dual. :(

I was, despite what it might have looked like, an Investigator. What about you fellas?

Thanks for organising OR! :D
