Let the chaos begin

Siobhan Taylor's posts explaining her definition of rule 13 were exceptionally bitter and twisted.

Therefore, in accordance to rule 13, I propose that she is awarded one point and that the game state is amended accordingly.

In accordance with Rule 13, the following proposal is communicated in a cynical manner. Not that you lot care whether or not I obey the rules.

Well I suppose I might as well put a new proposal in, not that I expect anyone of you lot to vote for it.

New Rule: Background: It is obvious that since all PONGs are POSLs, they can be expected to behave in a similar manner and have the nomic equivilant of Alts. In addition there is no reason to believe that a PONG will be any less depraved than a POSL, in which case they are likely to have sex slaves.

Each PONG may have up to three ALTs. An ALT is a PONG that has been declared to be the first PONG's ALT.

A PONG begins the game with 0 ALTS and 0 Sex Slaves.

Designating Alts: If a PONG notices that a second PONG has agreed three times in a row with a third PONG (For example by voting yes to three proposals from the same PONG in a row). Then the first PONG may declare that the second PONG is an ALT of the third. If the PONG currently has less than three ALTS, then the first PONG becomes the ALT of the second. If the PONG is already the ALT of a different PONG, then the original relationship is terminated.

Each ALT of a PONG must be a different PONG.

A PONG cannot be their own ALT
A PONG cannot be the ALT of a PONG that is the first PONG's ALT.
A PONG cannot be the ALT of more than one PONG.

Each PONG may have up to three Sex Slaves (SS). An SS is a PONG that has been declared to be the first PONG's SS.

Designating SS: A PONG is designated as another PONG's SS by both PONGs declaring that one PONG is the SS of the second. The relationship is active as soon as the second PONG posts.

Each SS of a PONG must be a different PONG.

A PONG cannot be their own SS
A PONG cannot be the SS of a PONG that is the first PONG's SS.
A PONG cannot be the SS of more than one PONG.

The game state in relation to PONG's ALTs and SSs shall be reported on in accrodance to the rules.

AND:
At the time of the acceptance of this proposal, the game state is to be changed to reflect the fact that Willow Zander is Eggy Lippmann's Sex Slave. As this will make rule 11 redundant, the usual PONG is to remove the rule at the next update.

That in proposal CF-004 Catfart Grayson showed exceptional bitter and jadeness.

As the PONG defined in rule 4, I propose that Catfart Grayson receives one point as defined in Rule 13.

I guess you will think this is just me trying to score a cheap point, but then I expect nothing less from you.

That in proposal CF-005 Catfart Grayson showed exceptional jadeness.

As the PONG defined in rule 4, I propose that Catfart Grayson receives one point as defined in Rule 13.

Now your going to complain I've done it again! Well I dont care, not that I'm bitter.

EGGY-007: Vote Yes
CF-04: Vote No

Preposal AM-001:

Rule 14
That a condition of winning or victory be created for the Funky Voting Thread (also: Forum Nomic, SL Nomic), wherein the first PONG to reach the score of fifty (50) points be declared the winner.

After said winner is declared, the rules will be reset to the default state as declared by the text here. And a rule will be added containing the names of all PONGs who have "won" and the number of times they have done so.

Upon the acceptance of this rule, all scores will be set to zero.

I will be enforcing rule 18 regarding the proper use of the terms PONG, POSL and PIF.

Rejected as not meeting the requirements of rule 18.
Morning Alek, welcome to the game.

Preposal AM-001a:

After said winner is declared, the rules will be reset to the default state as declared by the text here. And a rule will be added containing the names of all PONGs who have "won" and the number of times they have done so.

AM-001a: Vote Yes

Dear Mister Administrator,

I'd be delighted by this evidence of your integrity, if I cared about you or this game at all.

However, I can spare the energy to direct you to your most recent POST on the wiki of the current Ruleset, particularly Rule 3:



Please note your use of the illegal term "pPONG" and set an example for us all by setting your personal score at -1.

With Warmest Regards and Continuing *yawn* Passion for This Game,

I am,

Yr. Humble Servant, etc.

== danny d.

Proposal Cf-005: I vote YES.

Proposal CF-006: I vote NO, on the grounds that the components of jadedness and bitterness are nearly identical to those demonstrated in CF-005, and are therefore no longer "exceptional."

== danny d.

CF-003 Give Siobhan a point for being cynical
YES

CF-004 All PONGS have ALTS and sex slaves
NO

CF-005 & CF-006 Lookie, I'm so good I'm printing my own points
HELL NO

Proposal EGGY-008.0:
Proposals may not *directly* interfere with anyone's score, causing it to increase or decrease.

Proposal EGGY-008.1:
Proposals may certainly not *directly* award points to the original proposer.

Proposal EGGY-008.2:
Wiseguys trying to be leet point pharmers must use some manner of indirection and creativity in extracting said points from proposals.

Proposal EGGY-008.3:
Proposals may, however, cause points to be futurely awarded upon a certain action, or through clever abuse of the rules or unforeseen interaction of one or more rules/proposals.

Proposal EGGY-008.4:
In this case the proposer shall be awarded a chocolate chip cookie on top of any points gained.

EGGY-008.x: Vote YES.

I vote YES to this proposal. If it is a proposal.

...already exists
you dont need to number rules. proposals become rules when accepted and are numbered automatically.

[If I've already voted on a proposal, please ignore the second vote - I can't be arsed to look it up]

WZ_001 Lick, suck or bite.
YES

KALLEB-2 A Define Complex Proposal as one with words of 9 or more syllables
NO

DDG-012 Separation of State and Religion
NO - Since it's silly in this context

DDG-007: Protected Communication
YES

DDG-008: Protection against Graft and Corruption
NO

EGGY-001
YES

Devlin Gallant
I propose a new rule that ALL my proposals be made rules whether they are proposed as rules or not.
NO

Dear PONG,
Thank you very much for your warm and friendly post. At first, my spirit was lifted but I as I read further, I realised that nothing had changed,your just pointing this out in a cheap attempt to get ahead in the points, something I would never do.

With regards to your suggestion, I'm afraid I disagree. Rule 18 refers to proposals, not Rules and the mistake you pointed out was in rule 3. Therefore I do not agree that I should reduce my score by 1 point.

Yours
Catfart Grayson

Pfft!

ST-803: Since no other PONG seems to give a f**k, I propose that on alternate Fridays, all PONGs should wear black vinyl corsets and thongs, fishnets and heels, and that failure to comply should result in the PONG in question not being permitted to either Propose nor Vote on a proposal for the remainder of the weekend. i.e. until midnight of the following Sunday/Monday, time to be based on local time for that PONG!

ST-804: This proposal intentionally left blank.

ST-803 - NO
ST-804 - YES

Eggy Ive assumed that 008.x is one proposal and have put iall in the same proposal

The Wiki has been updated to this point:


The Wiki

NOTE: There are two new rules!

19 In order to prevent pedantic abuse of the system, when interpreting rules and proposals, the broadest possible meaning shall be used, one that fully captures both the letter and the spirit of said rules and proposals.


20 The Game State shall never include a Rule penalizing PONGs for posts acknowledging, seeking clarification concerning, or reporting on the status of, liabilities or responsibilities incurred under the Rules, and, that the status of this Proposal as a Rule for any duration whatsoever shall make abridgements of its scope and power impossible, whether or not the Rule itself remains a part of the Game State, based upon the Rule's preemptive use of the word "never."

CF-003: Vote No, since they were not bitter or jaded, simply mean-spirited.

CF-004: Vote No

CF-005: Vote No, since it was not bitter or jaded, but mainly sarcastic.

CF-006: Vote No

EGGY-008: Vote Yes

ST-803: Vote No

ST-804: Vote No, waste of space
