>>>>> It grows increasingly clear that the FRC consists almost entirely of extremely depraved individuals. They are only concerned with the success of themselves and their own rules, and are perfectly caspable of putting forward the most blatantly illogical and absurd arguments that their own rules should be VALID with high style--but for other people's rules, they do just the opposite. For the first 75 rounds since I joined, I had high hopes that they would shape up, that they would be able to rule themselves in a peaceful, democratic fashion. But now I realize that human nature is completely corrupt, unable to provide happiness for themselves or others. What? Do you think that these bastions of wickedness are happy? Why then do they continue to fight for honor in future rounds no matter how much they have recieved in previous rounds? It is an inherantly futile effort. Everyone loses, even the winners. If the masses are completely corrupt, only an absolute ruling power can keep them in line. The Leviathan. The Judge. However, it has come to my attention that the Judge does not yet have absolute power. While there is a limit to what one rule can do, there is a drastic remedy that this rule shall take that will bring the Judge much greater power. I feel confident that the Judge, in light of my carefully reasoned treatise on human nature, will accept this increased power. Future rules shall all be INVALID due to inconsistancy with this rule. That is, they should all be declared INVALID the first time. The Judge is perfectly able to make them VALID by a reruling, and presumably shall for any rules that he likes. But no more of this nonsense about consistency automatically earning a place among the ruleset. Forget about consistancy. All that matters is whether the (nearly) omnicompetent Judge does or does not like your rule. >>>>>> -- Rule Date: 2002-05-30 16:59:53 GMT
